I never myself succeed to register to that very forum. I don't know why. Every time I register and completing my data, the next page will say that administrator will look at this and send the answer.
I think Osi, once also got the same problem, but now he already succeeded to join, didn't you Osi?.
Do I get banned before I get my membership Ah but who cares, I don't have 16mm films anyway.
Larry, the admin, will check out your application and email you very shortly afterward to activate your membership. Thats pretty much normal for many such forums these days.
But, don't use the word "ass" in your application....please!!!!
The site is mainly for 16mm collectors, though there is an 8mm and a 35mm section also.

I joined quite some time ago and have found the Forum very useful and informative. I have also bought several 16mm films from some of the regulars there, without any problems whatsoever.
I have always received the utmost courtesy and attention when discussing potential purchases, airing questions or seeking 16mm advice generally.
Maybe I've just been lucky!?!?
Just my two-pennyworth.

No, David you've not just been lucky. It's a fantastic forum. The members are very helpful and, yes, there have been some nice films for sale on there over the years.

The 16mm forum is great, it has been very helpful for a newbie like me. It was the first forum I joined then I found you guys and you guys are great also. So let's not argue and just keep up the good work on both forums.
