I have noticed a lot of people having trouble with this so I will try to clear things up a bit.

A couple of stages need to be done and three different things can be seen in those stages.

Unregistered users of the forum can see the "READ THIS" and the "Public Open" Forums

1. Register with the forum AND activate the registration.

Registered users can see the "READ THIS" and the "Public Open" Forums AND ALSO the "Confederacy Public" Forum and can chat in the chatbox.

2. Let Me or MadmanMac know that you have registered and we will add you to the SilverForge Forums. (If you are a Silverforge member of course ) (For any other alliance forum MadmanMac or Myself will need to be private messaged here in the forum by the Leader of that alliance, though currently there are none, we are soon to start on Horde's Forum here as well )

Once you have been added to the alliance you can see the "READ THIS" , "Public Open" and the "Confederacy Public" Forums AND ALSO the "Knights of Silverƒorge" Forum (Officers will be added to the Officers Only Seperate Forum also)

I hope this helps.
