New Member waiting times
New Members have to wait.....how long before they get let in? I'm asking for a guy who would like to be a member. He sent a pm to the technodrome twitter but got no response. I know its just likely the twitter is checked infrequently tho.
But I have this terrible feeling people who want to join this place have to wait like a year to get in don't they? |

I don't know what the system is but looking at the introductions section it looks like the last few were August this year. I remember Krang saying he had a new system in place for this so may be a little more frequent than previously.
I was lucky to have very good timing when I joined, I think I only had to wait about 2/3 weeks. |

We model our admittance on U.S. immigration policies. Try the southern border.

Yeah, we used to do "catch and release" but they all the new members ended up being Etsy or Mew2 or whatever. Now it's "zero tolerance" -- wait for your court date with Krang and it could be months.

9-12 months seems the average wait time now.

To be fair, if it's like my Green Lantern board (same software), every day about 100 bots manage to sign up (even -- somehow -- defeating the "Are you a human?" captcha and even answering "Who is your favorite Green Lantern?" as a security question) and get to the "awaiting approval" phase. It gets very hard to sift through who is legit and who is not.

Hmm So I guess vouching for someone wouldn't do any good, eh?
Well all I can say is this person I know is obviously a human. They are in my discord server and would like to be a member of this forum. But I warned him that the wait could take half of eternity. |

But does Andrew just automatically deny approval to anyone who says Jessica Cruz is their favorite Lantern?
I need to know, Andrew... I NEED TO KNOW!!!

No wonder my request to join hasn't been approved. I keep looking for her in the list of options.

Maybe it’s time the forums get shut down altogether. Is this place really worth the bills?

I have no plans to shut down the forums. There are no major issues in keeping them running at this point. |

Where else would you go to post about people being too old for cartoons? Reddit?

Huh well I feel like crap since Krang responsed to this thread and I was...nowhere to be found. Just call me a hypocrite.
My friends name is "Turtle_Bot". Ironic yes but that's the name he chose. |
