The process of joining MILSURPS.COM and having completely free access to all of our public forums and knowledge libraries, is a simple two step process.
Step 1
If you already haven't done so, you need to start the REGISTRATION PROCESS (click here) (http://www.milsurps.com/register.php).
When a visitor first signs up to become a Registered Member of the Military Surplus Collectors Forums, they must respond "I AGREE" to an on-line contract, in order to become a Registered Member. So, you will be asked review those Forum Rules (http://www.milsurps.com/showthread.php?t=172), then choose a username and password you wish to use to log onto the site. For security purposes, you will also be asked to provide a VALID email address, so the ownership and moderating staff will be able to contact you.
Once you complete and submit your initial Registration, the system will automatically verify your new email address, by sending a personal email to the address you registered under. If we don't receive a response validating your registered email address, the system retries sending this same validation email three (3) times over the period of a week. During that period while we're awaiting email confirmation, your name continues to be displayed in RED and you will have no more access to the site than an unregistered guest. After fourteen (14) days without receiving a validation of the email address that you registered under, the system will purge your name.
Step 2
Check the INBOX of the email address you registered under. You will find an email from MILSURPS.COM that has the subject title "Action Required to Activate Membership for Military Surplus Collectors Forums". Open the email and you will find a URL link. Click the link within that email to validate your registration and you'll automatically be converted to a Registered User and have full access to everything. You will only need to visit that URL link once to have your account updated.
Warning: If you are a Microsoft Hotmail user, Yahoo email user, AOL email user or something similar, you may not find the validation email in your in-box. Hotmail (and similar free type services) often put validation emails into your trash bin, so check there if you can't find it in your in-box. If you can't find any of the validation emails which are automatically sent, you can manually force the system to send you one to the email address you registered under. Click HERE (http://www.milsurps.com/register.php?do=requestemail) to manually send yourself a validation email to the email address our system shows you as being registered under.
Once you've successfully completed the two steps above, with the exception of a few forums reserved for Contributing Members (click here) (http://www.milsurps.com/showthread.php?t=276), you will have full access to ALL of our remaining forums. If you have any further questions or need additional help, please contact us (click here) (http://www.milsurps.com/sendmessage.php).
Thank you for your interest and we hope you enjoy the site.
