Yes, I have a suggestion: Don't reject users who try to sign up with a Spamex.com email address. I wouldn't even give my own mother my "real" email address, so I was tempted to not sign up at all when my Spamex.com email address was rejected. Instead I created a unique email address for this particular forum using one of my webservers. I personally think Spamex.com is the greatest thing since sliced bread because I can have a unique email address for every single correspondent I have, and if I get even one Spam sent to that address I can either disable or delete that particular email address. I have no affiliation with Spamex whatever, other than as a happy customer and I'm amazed it's not more popular. I don't mean to turn my first post here into a complaint, but I happen to like Spamex.com very much and was appalled when the LinuxQuestions.org signup process rejected my Spamex email address.

In any case, I seem to have misplaced the welcome email that told me where I was supposed to post my introduction. Could anyone guide me in that direction please?

Thank you,

Ron

It's a sub-forum of the General forum - the very bottom of the forum list.

LinuxGnu,

I've broken this suggestion out of the thread you posted it in, which was a seven year old thread introducing the site. I explained to you in detail the reasoning behind this via email and we'll continue to monitor things as I mentioned. The intro forum is here:
