Can I just ask the moderator(s) to check forum membership applications more often? I know of at least two very keen and knowledgeable collectors who have tried joining but are forever awaiting approval, and I too waited many weeks when I joined last year.
Many thanks!
Peter C.

Peter C. We're trying to be better. However, most applications are initially rejected because applicants don't use a full name. We don't for example allow a name like Rog1973... Paul

And by way of illustration, I have just rejected two pending registrations:
WrappedInPlastic
&
WatcherofMedia
People need to read the rules before they register if they want their registrations to go through quickly.

Paul Yep- I reject dozens of membership requests at a time for just that. The rate of real names to fakes is about 1 in 20, I reckon.

Personally that is one of the things I like about this forum - you know who is who and members are unable to hide behind pseudonyms!
