    Default A message from MapleTrader for new registrants

    Hi Traders

    Our site has been bombarded with spam over the last six months.

    If you have tried to register for the forum in that time, but have not received a confirmation back from us, we are going to need you to email us so we can manually administer the final security step and get you active.

    If you have been unable to post photos, new forum topics or a classified, this means you have not been activated.

    When you email us be sure to let us know where your farm is located so we know you are real and not a Russian spammer.

    In the next month or two we will be completely updating the site.

    Please pass the word to other Traders.

    Thanks everyone.

    I can't upload an image on a post. I don't get it - I registered years ago - I thought the image issue was just with people who registered recently, where they haven't been "confirmed". So if I registered a long time ago, should I still email the owner of the site?
