Attention: Due to an increase in spammers all new members start out as probationary members. You will only be able to start a welcome post in the welcome new members forum. You can reply to all other posts. Once you have reached 5 posts you will be a full member and can start topics. We apologize for the inconvenience but spammers are becoming a real problem. We are also experiencing problems with new members receiving activation emails. We are manually activating new members. Please be patient with us. We will activate your membership within 24 hours of registration. People planning to register for membership with The Handloaders Bench. We had to block gmail addresses from registering here for our member’s security and protection, because spam bots have been using gmail a lot to cause problems. You can use a free hotmail or yahoo address to register and receive the activation email. After your membership has been activated, you will be able to change your email back to your gmail address in your account under the menu button at the top of the forum. We are sorry for any inconvenience this might cause. HB Admin

to all members -

as you know, the HB has been having a little trouble with spammers, autobots, pornbots and other assorted vermin on our site. in spite of polite requests for them to knock it off and some measures that we have taken in order to thwart them, they continue to worm their way though the cracks, where they proceed to try to create trouble for us and for you, our loyal members.

with that in mind, we're switching over to a new membership procedure whereby all new accounts will require approval from an admin member, who will be able to review the prospective member and make a judgement call on whether to allow membership or not. PLEASE NOTE that this new procedure will NOT affect current, existing members.

admin approval might take up to 24 hours, but it should eliminate problems such as those we have been having here. if anyone has questions, opinions or comments on this new procedure, you are free to voice them here on this announcement thread or by sending a PM to any admin member or board founder.

thanks for your help on this one, guys - we hope that this will go one step farther in protecting your internet privacy and enjoyment of this forum!:thumbs:

Also, please fill out as much info as possible on the form. This makes it easier to know who is a spammer and who is an actual person.
