    Update on Forum Registration & Posts (13 Jan 2012):


    1. Registration requires a valid e-mail address and a human question / answer verification. The question / answer is some general knowlege about ASC and Craftsman. Answers are NOT case sensitive.

    2. After you validate your e-mail address you will be allowed to post immediately, you do not need to wait for someone to verify your account.

    3. However until you post at least twice AND have been registered with the board for at least 10 days, you will get the human verification any time you post. This is an anti-spam measure while we work on some other ways.

    4. New registrations are automatically subscribed to notifications on forums, you can change this setting, we will post directions how to change.

    --Mark at Lee Michaels
    If you've been following the new forums, you have no doubt noticed we get SPAM regularly. To try and counteract some of this, we have made the following changes:

    - Registration and your initial postings require "ReCaptcha" - this is an image verification which automated computer systems cannot read to sign up and/or post. After you post a few times, you won't get the recaptcha messages but this should help prevent SPAM bots from hitting us.

    - As part of our spam prevention measures, you need to register and confirm your e-mail address to utilize the forums. We have a lot of content, including reports, forumlas, tips, tricks, etc from fellow ASCUS members. You must be logged in with a confirmed e-mail address (e.g. when you register, use a valid e-mail address!) to view and reply to content.

    New Website, New Forums

    New Website & Forums - all in one.

    Yes, you will need to re-register on the new site and access the new forums. We are not sure if we will have the old content available, so get it now.

    At our ASCUS Executive Board Meeting in March, we
    decided it was time to move our website and this forum to
    a new, more progressive technology. Two weeks later I
    was notified that the host of this forum is discontinuing it
    on April 21st. We'll class our decision as impeccable
    planning.

    I am having no luck with any discovering a means of
    exporting and saving the content here, or getting any
    technical assistance on it from our host. I would therefore
    encourage you to take the opportunity over the next few
    weeks to browse the content stored here and copy and
    paste information that you may deem useful for future
    use.

    The plan is to take our new forum to the VBulletin
    platform. It should be able to house everything, including
    any content we would post on the ascus.org web site (like
    the docs from our recent ASCUS Convention). We plan on
    taking you directly there when you navigate to
    www.ascus.org. More info to come...
