A note about registering on this site

[Rich Z]

Please note that when you register, an email is sent to your registered email address that contains a link within it that you MUST click on in order to verify that your email address is valid and working. Unless and until you do that, you are in kind of a limbo state here. You can read messages, but you will be unable to post anywhere. This is in place to try to keep the number of spammers down that have been hitting on all of the message board sites lately.

This feature can be an issue with some ISPs because some of them (such as EarthLink) have spam blocks in place that automatically block all emails from unknown senders unless they go through a challenge process. Quite honestly, I cannot take the time to do that, so if your ISP utilizes this sort of process, you will need to put rich@corvetteflorida.com into your list of acceptable email addresses. Otherwise, your registration will NEVER be completely processed.

Also, some ISPs (such as Yahoo), seem to automatically throw all vBulletin based messages into a SPAM or BULK MAIL folder, so if you have registered and not received the verification email, you may need to check in those folders for that email so you can complete this process.

I have set it up so that all members who are in this "limbo" state of registration have their member name displayed in gray as an easy method for you to check your status if you are having problems posting here. You can see the list of members presently logged in at the bottom of the main page of this site at any time. So if YOUR name is grayed out, then you will then be able to determine what the problem is and why you can't post messages here.

Of course, if you are having problems with any part of this system, simply use the CONTACT US, link at the bottom of the page and give me as many specific details as possible about what the problem is, and I'll take a look for you.

Thanks.........
