Is there a problem with joining up? I just got a note from someone who wanted to create an account and he said:

It is rejecting the answers to the verification questions. Either my IQ is considerably below 100 or there is something wrong with the forum software. And there is no other way to contact the owner. Oh well...

Since my IQ is definitely below the required number, I have no idea.

Let me know what's happening and I can get back to him.

Just a supposition here.
We have had a lot of issues with potential spammers trying to infiltrate the site.
Until a few weeks back the mods were physically deleted dozens of false accounts each week. Recently that stopped for some unknown reason.
I think that Moon must have stepped in and changed the parameters for setting up an account. Maybe he has made it too strict.
He isn't around often enough to ask, I'm afraid.
Hopefully he will pick up on this message. I'll copy it over to the mods section.

If I can remember, I'll try to register as a 'new' member at work on Monday. This is an address that KM has never seen.

Well, that didn't work out so well.
I've come down with a nasty cold, and haven't stepped out of the house since Sunday morning Sad

Well, having survived the cold sent by James via email, I'll be at work again on Monday. Thing is, there's now likely to be two weeks of overwork instead of just one Sad

Which will explain why 'they' seem to have stopped.
Some time ago, when  we had a real bad attack of 'them', the parameters were changed to stop them. After a while things had to be relaxed a little to allow real prospective members through but it would look like Moon has reverted back to that regime.
Seems like a difficult balancing act.

I really was hoping that this problem was solved! Seems that it is not.

Moon hasn't set foot on K-M in over a year...that could be part of the problem. Roll Eyes

Currently the validity check things it's 2016! I seem to have been able to register - and have just approved myself Smiley
I'll double check at work tomorrow, and let Mr Moon know the situation.
