    Hi everyone,

    In an effort to continue to reduce spam accounts and posts, we will be adding a pop-up that users will need to opt into to be able to continue logging in. This pop-up will be launched on Wednesday, September 1st. The first time you log-in after that date, you’ll need to “agree”; you will also see the same pop-up monthly thereafter, at which time you’ll need to “agree” again.

    The text of the pop-up message is below. This language can already be found on the Forum by following the link at the end of message; by having it as a pop-up, it allows us to more easily prevent and/or remove posts and posters who may post inappropriate spam/content.
