I just got that too...

I went in to my profile and had to re-check the two fileds at the top about using real names.

 

[Shannon Lynn]

Yeah, same thng here. All I had to do was check the two boxes. I think Tim said in a post yesterday that they were working on some things, so maybe this is part of it.

 

[Joey Ketcham]

Same here, just went back and checked those boxes and saved it.

 

[Jay Cazel]

Same here. But checked the two boxes and works now.

 

[Melissa Jablonski]

I did that and it didn't work without birthday and month. I thought they had that guess not.

Good day all,

That was strange ...

I clicked these 2 and all was well...

I understand that my username may NOT be a nickname, handle, callsign, or incomplete last name.

I understand that my account may be deleted without notice for failure to comply with the policy on full names.

We're fixing it. That was obviously intended only for new users. vBulletin documentation was not very clear on the configuration but I think it's sorted out now.

Lots of changes going on under the hood right now, sorry about the hiccup.

The only problem is that you cannot read any notice telling you that you must check those boxes until after you checked them.

 

[Bonnie Frank]

Well thats a relief, I thought I had done something wrong. Ha!

 

[Tim Vasquez]

Yeah, we had some people registering with usernames like IFTL and tornado_dreams, even after getting past the initial registration page emphasizing our use of real names. I decided it was time to put a mandatory agreement checkbox in the registration form to give them two chances to fix their username before getting into trouble.

Makes sense to me.
