Hi all,
You've probably seen MB's article about the benefits of becoming a registered member, and I want to take this opportunity to invite anyone that's interested in registering to come on board. We apologize to any AOL members that were inconvenienced when asked to reregister with another email server, including the users with netscape.com, cs.com, and Road Runner. There's still no patch currently available through YaBB that allows AOL members to receive email from dsboards.com, and therefore you won't be able to receive your password if you register using AOL.
BTW, it's worth mentioning that ANYTIME you change the email address in your standing registration, a new password is sent to you. Therefore, you can't use AOL addresses even after you've registered cuz, again, you're not going to receive your password at your AOL address, and without the new password you won't have access to your profile to change it back without help from the forum administrators. And... if anyone hasn't received their password, please email either
MysteriousB@dsboards.com or
Midnite@dsboards.com . You can change your password to one you prefer after you've logged in for the first time, and during registration you can opt to have your email addy hidden from other readers.
I still haven't gotten to the purpose of this message, sorry: In the event that what's keeping you from registering is that you've been unable to come up with a username, I thought I'd list the DS-related screen names that have been chosen already in order to illustrate that there are many more as yet untaken, and if that doesn't help then I'd be happy to suggest DS names for anyone that would like to email me. To date, these are the DS-related usernames that are NOT available:
Barnster
Ben (hey, it's a DS name, hee hee!!)
Bob_the_Bartender
Gerard
Julia99
Josette
Joshua_Collins (JC, if you see this, PLEASE email me! I've made several attempts to reach you...)
Latisha
mrjuggins
MrsJ
Nathan
Nicky
Paul
petofi
ProfStokes
Quentin
SonofBarnabas
The name Angelique is reserved for someone already in the process of registering.
There are several other registered usernames that are too numerous to list, but the board will indicate if you're attempting to register with a name that has already been taken. But if there's a username you decide that you want to use to post, there's no guarantee that it'll be available on your next visit unless you register it.
Okay, I'll shut up now... Hope to see you on the board!
~Midnite
