I realize that there are many who barely can find the power switch on a
computer, and because of this, they allow their computers to become infected
with all manner of malware.

But if the VLAN forums---different from other countless forums out there---has
identified my IP as being in an address range that is a constant source of
Internet trouble (spam, denial of service attacks, etc) or it has somehow
detected---and I can scarcely understand how----that my computer is compromised,
then it MUST do a better job of notifying the user.  I checked its list of spam
identifying services and none reported my IP as being in their list.

It is up to the moderator of the VLAN forums to tell the denied registrant
EXACTLY and DESCRIPTIVELY why registration is denied.  A GOOD forum moderator
should WANT to educate the users out there what they are doing wrong...not just
give the users his opinion that they are doing something wrong and not saying
exactly how.

Actually, I believe that the forum moderator has closed off registrations and is
instead using this page without basis.

This process is wrong.
