 +
Do not click on "Create an account." As a member you already
 +
have an account. Any new account you create will not be able
 +
to access the member-only content.
 +
 
 +
Enter your name as
 +
John Smith
 +
It has to be the spelling as you gave on your membership record.
 +
The first name and last name are capitalized, and there's a space
 +
between the names.
 +
 
 +
These formats are wrong and won't work for you:
 +
jsmith johnsmith john.smith JohnSmith John.Smith (all wrong)
 +
 
 +
If you have not logged in before, fill in the username and click on
 +
the E-mail password button. You'll get a temporary password sent to
 +
the e-mail address you gave on your personnel record when you joined
 +
Pincher SAR. Once you have the password, you can return to the log in
 +
page to log in. You'll be prompted to change your temporary password
 +
to a permanent one.
 +
 
 +
Brand new members will have to wait until the membership database is
 +
"processed", which if everyone is doing their job should happen once a
 +
month. Contact the [[Board of Directors|Administrator]] if there are
 +
problems.
