Age Confirmation E-mails

While it pains me to do so, I’ve been turning away quite a few new members from One Human Tribe and mainly for an otherwise trivial reason.As is indicated on the membership page of the groups, a response to a particular e-mail is required in order to obtain membership to the group. Without the Age Confirmation e-mail, memberships are <b>automatically rejected</b> whether otherwise valid or not.

My reasons for this are simple:

1. This is an Adult list and checking the age of every single member is of paramount importance to me to ensure that someone underage does not float in either accidentally or on purpose. I can’t control the misleading statements of some people but I can at least put that rule right up front to ensure that the general policy is known by even outsiders.

2. I hate Spambots. It is nearly impossible for the Spambots to get past this method of joining. Even if they can get past Yahoo! prevention protocols, they rarely get past mine. I do this to ensure that every member has a free and clear list to feel comfortable in without the fear of annoying e-mails.

So, if you’re considering joining or you’re currently a member and thinking of asking a friend, please remember the seperate e-mail that must be responded to in order to join our list.

Sincerely,
The Moderator
