How do you get rejected from joining kp/?

In the ff.net forum there is a discussion going on about having an independent forum from ff.net that everyone can go to and not worry about losing the really old posts. I suggested kp/ since it's independent and accepts nearly everyone. Then one of the forum regulars commented that he had tried to sign up for kp/ and got a rejection notice. Which made me curious...how DOES one get rejected from getting an account for kp/?

you'd have to ask one of the mods, but I'd assume his email or posting credentials seemed to be spammish

that or it was someone known and loathed like SNS

I'd have to know the user name, but the only possible reason is that the name and address signified spammer.

If such is the case, telling them to sign-up again with a name such as Not a Bot, and then PMing an Admin for a name change. Or have them contact me directly and I'll make sure it get's taken care of.

I don't know of any rejections, other than once concern was over the member *name* being requested. We contacted that individual both by email (by LK) and me directly by IM as they were on AOL, explained our concern about the requested name and would be glad to process them with another. I don't believe they pursued it any further.

The issue was about selecting a name which is that of a canon character, as it has been observed on other boards that they act like they *are* the character. So for example we will reject the *name* "Kim Possible", but KimPossible2020 would be allowable.

Etc.

Ask this person what was the nature of the rejection. And *when*. They can contact me directly on AOL/AIM if they wish.

I sent them a PM. Hopefully he'll contact one of you two to get things cleared up.

we would certainly welcome a group influx of members.

but then again, facing prolonged downtime this week, it might be best to moderate promises

True dat. I can be contacted thru AOL/AIM, FF.net, and DA.

And if things go well, the downtime may only be a couple of days, not weeks...

It was AmericanGecko applying under that name, that's really... not bot-y.

The same AG from DA? Have him re-apply, I'll personally see him activated

Edit: I should have checked first... LOL... done
