Registration
REMINDER TO NEW MEMBERS!!! You MUST validate your account through the email account you listed on the registration page before you can post. Check your spam filter if you didnt get one. Also sometimes it does take email some time to be delivered. If for some reason you still cant get on, email ccsforumadmin@gmail.com . Put 'CCS' in the title. Include your chosen ID, email address that you used to sign up and list the problem you are having. Please be patient since I check the email account every few days. Unactivated accounts are removed after 60 days.

Private Messaging
Due to an issue involving the private messaging system, users under 15 posts will simply have to enter a visual security code to send PMs.  Once you get over 15 posts this will go away.

Site Rules & Guidelines
Basically no spamming, threatening, abusive, ponzi schemes, pyramid schemes or pornography.
If you are having issues with another member, use the Report to Moderator link on the lower right corner.

Also sorry for the multiple announcements if you are accepting announcement emails from here. Internet connection went out when I clicked it. Again sorry for the extra emails.

Is this why I can't even read the private message that I just got?  I guess I will just start posting so I can at least read that one.  :)

if you're a legitimate user and would like PM access, just let us know, or start posting...  again it's just a simple security measure for those intending ill-will on the forum.

POLICY ADDITION

Regarding signatures.  While I personally detest images in signatures, I realize that some people find it a necessity, so I will make this allowance for you.  If you want to put an image in your signature, you may, but the MAXIMUM size it can be is  468x60.  How big is 468x60?  It's the same size as the advertising banners you see at the top and bottom of the pages.

Thank you.
