Guidelines for registering

[emsadmin]

When registering for this forum, please use your real name, or something similar, and enter your real name and department name into your profile. That will make it a lot easier for me to tell that you are a legitimate user when I'm going through and deleting/banning the bogus/spam-bot users.
Generally speaking, if a new user is registered with a strange user-name from a foreign IP address (outside the U.S.), the user account is going to get banned and the IP addresses will be blocked.
You can save me some research time if you just enter your department name into the squad/department field on your profile, so I know you are a real, EMS/Rescue member. If you're here to post relevant information about classes or related products, please enter the name of your institution in the department field so I know who you're representing.
In the interest of saving time, I'm going to act swiftly to prune bogus/spam accounts. If your first post is "Hi, I'm single and hot", you'll be banned immediately, and permanently. Just FYI.
