<?

$solution = starting today we will require all new members to validate email addresses when they register here.

{

the meaning of this is twofold:

{
fold #1 - there are a lot of members here who have invalid email addresses which means if they subscribe to topics, send pms, or do anything in which this site will send them an email... //I GET THE EMAIL!// this means a hundred emails a day that say so and so sent so and so a pm. no offense but i dont' care.
}

{
fold #2 - this will stop any potential abuse of the forum by bots who wish to sell their wares here at chefelf.com
}

}

//THANKS FOR EVERYONES UNDERSTANDING!

So... I'm guessing this has little to nothing to do with current members, right?

I thought it was customary to use a real email to sign up for things. It's been so long ago that I signed up(wow, nearly a year!)that I can't remember much of it now/.

I always use fake emails on places that I dont care about, such as when microsoft wants me to fill out some nonsense when I'm installing something. I cant see why anyone would do that for this forum though.

Samee with myself, unless they require an address, in which case the trust SW1A 2AA blighty postcode comes into play.

Sadly most sign ups don't have a vatican city option.
