Hello,
I have become part of Fingerboard HQ recently and I thought I might aswell join Finger Flip Inc. but this is where the problem is ...
When I click on Register it says ... Registration is currnelty disabled ... It has been like this for AGES and I donnt understand..
Is the forum full I am unsure!!
Please can some one tell me whats happening

to get on ffi you need an invitation
i registerd a week ago when they had open registration so i think they closed it now

OW OK so can you send and invitation for me ??

it's not an invitation you just just sign up when registration is open and they approve you..

ok thanks

FFI cycles between phases of Open and Closed Registration. It will open every now and again and this is to keep unwanted users out.

When it is open, anyone can register and join and there is a new members section where it is the only place you have access to, along with other new members and moderators. This is designed to prove you are mature enough and will contribute to the community before they give you access to the full forum.

When it is closed, I've heard of 2 ways to get in. When I first joined FFI, all I did was send a well structured email to the admin account with some general personal information about myself and my fingerboard experience. They replied with an approval and I could choose my username and password in another email before they created the account with access to the normal boards.

I've also heard of people gaining access through referrals from existing members. I am not entirely familiar with how this process works but presumedly, members put in a good word to an admin and somehow get an account for their friend.

^that, basically.

We've closed registrations again and they'll be open for a set small period, a number of days most likely, every certain larger period, for example, few months. I don't know exactly when or anything, noone does, otherwise we'd be inundated with registrations and wouldn't be able to do anything. For now, you've basically gotta wait, or get someone high up to message an admin and recommend you. AND no offense but I'm not going to recommend anyone unless I see them being a mature, inteligent, forum smart, and positive fingerboarder. Because the blame lies on me if they're not.

ok
thanks kerry
And i understand that you cannt recommend me cos u donnt know me and I have only been on here for a little while aswell
