New members

Post by svaglic » Sat Aug 04, 2018 6:56 pm

I’m still getting emails to approve new members, I should be removed from that because I’m not an admin, but it shows we picked up quite a few new members.

Congratulations to the new members here though, welcome and jump right in.

I asked to be removed a while back. I didn’t know or understand anything about the access areas I had, so I figured I’d give it up and make room for BDWF members to keep their admin status here.

It appeared to be spammers. I talked to Alain yesterday via p.m. and he's going to send me the instructions so I can review them and weed them out. I'll pass it on to the rest of you. Also I asked if we can have an admin subform so that we can communicate more easily.

Trying this again, I hit something wrong last time.

See, me with my computer knowledge would have let them in. I am dangerous and should be removed from admin. Also I would recommend only a person or two be allowed to approve new members, those who know how to screen.

The same with me. I don't know how my fucking toaster works.
