rachel 0 Posted March 10, 2005 Sorry, call me a bit thick, but where are the I Agree and Register buttons? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeniseG 3 Posted March 10, 2005 Sounds good to me!!! I am glad you said what the "!" meant. I believe I pressed it once to see what it would do, I hope I didn't alert a post that shouldn't have been. It would talk a lot for someone to upset me. I believe in the school of thought that if someone attacks you, it is their issue with themselves, not you personally.

Alexandra 55 Posted March 10, 2005 Sorry, call me a bit thick, but where are the I Agree and Register buttons? These rules are just copied from what appears on the registration screen that all new members have to complete when they join. This is just for your information, and those lines don't apply to current members. (In fact, I'll take them out to avoid further confusion.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
