Registering

 

So you are interested in registering an account on this board. Here you will learn how to register an account on this board to become a registered member. Registering an account is a simple painless process that depending on this board’s setup should not take much time.

 

A typical SuperMod registration screen might look something like this.

 

 

As you can see it’s not too complex, but for clarification here are the typical steps toward registering an account.

 

Typical Stuff

 

-         Choose a username: What you enter in this box will be your default username as well as the username you will use each time you login. Depending on this board’s setup you can through your profile change the name displayed to other users on the board index and in posts. But the username you enter here will remain your permanent ID on the board and will always be used to login.

 

-         E-Mail: Here you will enter your e-mail address. Depending on this board’s setup a validation e-mail maybe sent to the address entered here, and will require you to activate your account through e-mail. This is done to ensure that the address entered is a valid working e-mail address. So it is important that you enter a valid working e-mail address during the registration process.

 

-         Referrer: If you were referred to this site by another member enter their name or username in this box and give them credit for referring you.

 

-         Choose a Password: Here you will be asked to enter an encrypted password. Be sure to type something that is easy to remember but not something that someone might be able to guess.

 

-         Verify password: The password you chose above simple enter it again in this box to verify it.

 

-         Register: Once you’ve entered everything, click on the ‘Register’ button on the bottom to complete the registration process.

 

Extra Stuff

 

-         Registration code: Depending on this board’s setup, the administrators might require those trying to register to enter a registration code in order to confirm that they are real people and not an automated machine. A random registration code will appear in a box with a series of letters and numbers that make up the code. Simply enter the code as you see it in the input box below.

 

-         Registration agreement: Depending on this board’s setup you might be required to read and agree to a registration agreement before registering. The registration agreement is typically a legal agreement, or a list of forum rules that those registering must agree to follow in order to be members. So take some time to read the agreement, and if you agree to these rules and conditions click on the check box for ‘I Agree”.
