1. Why should I register?

In order to fully utilise the abilities of the disussion forum, you are invited to register as a member. Registration is free, and allows you to do the following:
·       Post new threads
·       Reply to other peoples' threads
·       Edit your posts
·       Receive email notification of replies to posts and threads you specify
·       Send private messages to other members

To register, you will need to specify a username, a password and a valid email address. Entering your email address will not leave you open to 'spam', as you can choose to hide your email address, and messages sent to you via email do not reveal your address to the sender in any case. (To verify this, you can try sending an email message to another user.) You will be sent the final part of the registration process by email, so ensure that the email address you provide is valid and working.

2. How do I edit my profile?

It is your responsibility to keep the information in your profile up-to-date. You should especially ensure that your email address is kept current. You can alter any of the fields in your profile, except your username.

Edit your profile here.

3. Signature

After you have registered, you may set your signature. This is a piece of text that you would like to be inserted at the end of all your posts, a little like having headed note paper.

You will have the option to include your signature on any posts you make. If you have specified a signature, then the forum will automatically append your signature to any messages you post.

You can set your signature by editing your profile here.

4. Lost my password, what can I do?

If you forget your password, you can click on the 'Forgotten Your Password' link on any page that requires you to fill in your password. This will bring up a page where you should enter your user name & registered email address, and an email will be sent to that address instantly, with instructions for resetting your password.
