Account Registration - Updated 24 / 11 / 2010

It has recently come to our attention that there is, or rather was, a bug in user registration.
In the past we've required people to check their emails to confirm that they actually exist are not in fact spambots. With the new forum software, those emails were not being sent and thus newly registered people could not activate their accounts and post on the forum.
We've fixed the bug by removing the requirement of email confirmation. Newly registered users can now post immediately on the forums as long as they can pass the standard spambot tests.
If anyone registered prior to this post and has yet to receive their confirmation email or has an account that has been set to "Inactive", contact us at admin@bwint.net and we'll see about activating your account.
