trying to joing EA (imported) wrote: Wed Nov 03, 2021 6:09 am I have tried to join at least 3 times and each time i still remain unregistered and get a message that i’ve entered invalid information. I am hoping I can join this site since i believe i’m in need of your site’s help. This site has actually been recommended to me by a couple doctors since where i live i do not qualify for orchiectomy since i do not want to become a woman. Please let me know how I can join. Thanks.

I verify where you are (state, euro country, etc.) to see if you are lying. I check ISPs -- If you use Tor or other proxy, that comes up in my search. If you lie at registration, where else are you going to lie? Lesson: Don't lie; if I don't catch you right away, I will eventually, and then I delete. If you lie here, where else are you going to lie? If you are advocating or advertising for stuff not on-topic here, or using your registration as your personal ad, I will delete.

Unregistered (imported) wrote: Sun Nov 07, 2021 11:02 am i guess that you are saying that you have deleted my registration attempts. i’m using an ipad and or a galaxy from one time to the next. i don’t know if that makes any difference. i don’t know what “Tor” is or “other proxy” so if i am using any, i don’t know it and don’t know how else to try to register from these devices. i’m just trying to join a site that i’ve been told will be helpful for me. there doesn’t seem to be much else in terms of resources for eunuchs and eunuch wannabes.

i don’t know what else i can try to get successfully registered. I do not understand why whatever you’ve been alerted about is resulting in you deleting. i’d still like to join.

What he is saying is if you use TOR or a proxy (Such as a VPN which is a Virtual Private Network, which can obscure your actual location), he rejects the account. You may have been using a VPN honestly and ethically, but the EA prefers members do not obscure their Internet addresses. What a VPN could do is allow you to say you're in London, when you're actually located in Tokyo, as an example.

Should you be using such a system, the solution is simple: When you come to the EA, turn that system off for the duration of your visit here. If your problem is something else, reach out to a moderator and ask for assistance. Sometimes things happen here which need looking at, and it's entirely possible you have something like that going on.

He also noted that if you say in your profile when you sign up that you're in one location, and your IP address (Internet protocol address) shows you as being somewhere else, that will get the attention of the system. The solution to that would be if you're telling the EA you're in a certain country, then the IP address tells the moderation staff you're in another, that will cause this action. So make sure your country matches in your profile and IP address when you sign up. If you say you're in France, then your IP address should show you as being in France. Obviously people will move around in life, but at sign up, make sure these items match.

The issue isn't about a person outright lying, but ensuring the EA has a reliable way to ensure they can believe your registration is authentic. Sometimes it misfires, so if that is the case, I'm sure folks who take care of that here would be willing to help you sort it out.
