How to Register for the TCF Forum
Step by step instructions, for those of us who of us are not so computer minded.
It's not as hard as it sounds
1. Click on 'Login' in the top bar on the forum Homepage
2. Click on 'Register' in the top left hand corner under the TCF Log
3. It gives you the choice of two dates to click on, this determine that you are over eighteen
4. This takes you to the 'Terms of Agreement' that you need to agree to abide by
5. And finally, this will take you to the 'Registration Form' - fill it in and click 'Submit'
This will send your request to the Admin team who will email you another more detailed form to fill in. We are really sorry about this, but it is to ensure that we stay private and safe.
After this it will take a short while to validate you. (Depending on how soon you return the form this can often be within a few hours).
You will then get an email to let you know that you are an active Forum member.
