New Members seeking to join using a Proxy Server are rejected.

[Admin]

New members seeking to join the forum using proxy servers are automatically rejected.   Each and every new application is now checked out as part of our vetting procedures.  We have had enough of this nonsense in the past so lets be clear about this.   

Hardly a day goes by without someone else trying to join using a proxy.

       Sort of makes the trouble makers redundant and rightly so too.

Pity it's not standard practise on ALL forums.

It should be, someone uses a proxy service for one reason and one reason only and that is to try and hide their identity.  Genuine posters have no need to do such a thing and are always welcome irrespective of their views.
