Registration at the Bolter & Chainsword is an easy process.

This tutorial uses the Mobile skin. If you are using the Carbon/Default/Full skin/theme, go here. Note that the screenshots in this tutorial are from a desktop computer, so they may appear differently when viewed on a mobile device.

At the top of your screen you will see the following:

Click the icon at the top right (the four white squares). This menu will appear:

Click the “Create Account” button near the top center. You will be taken to this screen:

By clicking the “I AGREE” button at the bottom center of the screen you are indicating that you have read the rules of the Bolter & Chainsword and agree to follow those rules in your participation at the site. When you click that button you will be taken to this screen:

First, pick your username. This must be between 3 and 26 characters and may include special characters and spaces (in addition to alphanumeric characters). This is the primary name associated with your account and is the name that you will use (along with your password) to log in. Usernames must be unique.

Next, enter your email address. This must be a valid email address and must be unique. Members are allowed to have only one account at the Bolter & Chainsword.

Next, enter your password. Your password can be any combination of characters including letters (lower and upper case), numbers, and special characters. The minimum password length is 1 character. We have tested passwords up to 50 characters, and it may be possible to have more characters. As with any password, you should ensure that your password is strong, including upper and lower case letters, numbers, and special characters. You should avoid using words in the dictionary and should ensure that you choose a unique password for your Bolter & Chainsword account, not repeating a password that you already use for some other purpose.

Note that the Bolter & Chainsword will never ask you for your password.

Next, answer the registration question. There are multiple questions that might appear in the “Verify you are a human” section. If you have problems with the software accepting the answer you enter, contact the administrators for assistance.

If you do not want the site to send you news and information via your email address, un-check the box.

If you submit a username or e-mail address that is already taken, the system will return an error (see image below). If you chose a username that is already taken, that cell will have a pink background and the message “That username is already taken” will appear in red text below. If that happens, try another username.

If you have entered an email address that is already associated with an existing account, that cell will have a pink background and the message “The email address is already in use” will appear in red text below. If that happens, contact the administrators to recover access to your existing account.

You’re not done yet!

The last step is to contact the administrators by sending an email from the email address you entered for the account. The administrators will review the information and will approve the account within 48 hours, notifying you by email that your account has been approved.
