Please remember that we actively monitor posted messages for compliance with this Agreement but the Forum is not responsible for the content contained within.  We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any information presented. The posted messages express the views of the author, and not necessarily the views of this forum, its staff, its subsidiaries, or this forum's owner. Anyone who feels that a posted message is objectionable is encouraged to notify an administrator or moderator of this forum immediately. The staff and the owner of this forum reserve the right to remove objectionable content, within a reasonable time frame, if they determine that removal is necessary. This is a manual process, however, please realize that they may not be able to remove or edit particular messages immediately. This policy applies to member profile information as well.

You remain solely responsible for the content of your posted messages. Anything posted (text, images or documents) to the forum gives the forum perpetual rights to that content. Furthermore, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless the owners of this forum, any related websites to this forum, its staff, and its subsidiaries.

Any information the forum owner or staff determines to be inaccurate or vulgar in nature will be removed, with or without prior notice. Appropriate sanctions may be applicable.

Thank you for your interest in Classic Rotary Phones.  If you would like to become a member so that you can post comments and questions, simply click the "Register" link at the top of the home page.  Once you complete the registration process your request for membership will be e-mailed immediately to me for approval.

Until now we have allowed self-registration.  There has been a huge increase in people joining simply for the purpose of posting links to web sites, or other activity that I refer to as SPAMMER activity.  As a result I have changed the Registration process so that the prospective member must send me an e-mail with a very short description of your intended activity.  I'm not concerned if the member ever makes a post, but I would like to know a little bit about you before I approve the membership.  An example might be.......

Hi, I am interested in old telephones.  I currently own a "so and so" and would like to know more about it... Perhaps a little more information so I know that you have legitimate intent with your membership.  Again, it doesn't matter to me if you ever make a post, but we would love for you to join in the conversation.  MAKE SURE YOU INCLUDE THE USER  NAME IN YOUR E-MAIL THAT YOU USED WHEN REGISTERING. And, MAKE SURE YOU ENTERED YOUR CORRECT, WORKING EMAIL ADDRESS AND SEND THE EMAIL FROM THAT ACCOUNT.

---------------- Forum Administrator E-Mail ----------------------------
You may send your e-mail to the moderators at ClassicRotaryPhonesGM@gmail.com
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note:  Registration requests will be approved as quickly as possible.   We get many registration requests from "spammers."  Those are eventually deleted.  With no accompanying e-mail there is no way of knowing that your registration is not spam.

Thank you for your interest in the Classic Rotary Phones forum.  We all look forward to your membership and participation!
