Clarification on Account Registrations

[Arynis]

Hi everyone!

Due to multiple inquiries about the user registration process (e.g., why can't I view the forum, etc.), I have posted a clarification on how we handle registrations on the forum: http://neoarkcradle.net/forum/showthread.php?tid=5435

Admittedly this is something that we should have put up earlier, but better late than never. I hope this clears things up for new users or users-to-be.

Lastly, I would like to apologize to everyone whose emails I haven't gotten back to. Some I didn't because their issue seemed moot from my viewpoint (i.e., account was already activated), some because I had no time to reply and too much time had passed by the time I could. I am aiming to speed up responses to such inquiries by sharing the email account with other Admins, since at the present I am the only one logging into said account.

As for why you shouldn't PM Shadowfang: he logs onto NAC only during tech situations (e.g., plugin updates, etc.), so if you PM him any inquiry, you'll more than likely end up like this:



Use the Contact Us form or PM any other Admin if you have any questions.

Also, if you guys have any comments on the matter, feel free to post in this thread.

Addendum since we apparently got a few people worried:

This rule is concerning Sock Puppets and Ban Evaders, a la Alper (who we speak of in hushed tones), as a quick example. So very case-by-case basis.

For those who didn't know / were trying to just access the forum, this doesn't pertain to you, but if you'd like us to delete those old/excess accounts, just PM us or hit us up with an E-Mail.

On a semi-relevant note, I had Private Messages/profile comments disabled, and noticed this only now. FML.

I fixed my profile setting. People should be able to PM me again, as well comment on my profile.
