Dear Guests,

In an attempt to curb the large numbers of unwanted postings that we have been recently experiencing, we are now requiring guests to register before being able to post. We apologize for the inconvenience, but we believe that this step will lead to a cleaner and more user-friendly forum for all. Registration is free and takes only a few moments.

Best regards,

The AffordableTours.com Team

I thank you for doing this. some of the stuff that was coming in was awful, and some was down right nasty. Good Job. and I didnt mind registering at all as I really enjoy this message board and for all the help I have received from fellow travelers. Thank You Donna

We now have taken a further step by requiring the administrator (me) to authorize all new users. There are some computer programs that automatically create accounts for the spammers. If I think the account was created by a computer (its easy to tell the difference) I will not authorize the account.
