That is a great idea so that members of one forum that is hosted on Create a forum can register with another forum without putting in there information again all they have to do is enter their user-name and password, accept the agreement and they are in. Also it would be even better if you could make it happen on SFMforfree as well as here so that old members don't have to re register. :)

It doesn't seem to be very feasible. It sounds like it would be hard to link all of the forums together on a network, seeing as there are so many of them. Also, you would have to be registered on the main network site in order to sign up on other sites, which many people wouldn't want to do. When I originally found the SMF For Free service, I was using one community forum for a few months before I even looked at the support forums/main SMF For Free website. :)

Just my 2 cents. ;)

But some forums like having the extra fields to answer in the registration form. So they might prefer having the full registration on their forum.

Alex - I'm pretty sure there's a way with the software to do what they're asking. But then again, what do I know? lol. I think it's there... or was that something else. Now I'm just rambling.

They can still have there fields answered along with accepting each sites aggrement they will alos be required to fill in those but how many forums actually have that? I know i don't. :)

Actually a lot.

Many computer service sites ask for what operating system you use.

Some XBOX sites ask for your XboxLIVE username

etc.

Ahh you have a point there. :) Another idea would be maybe making so that if you have one forum you can link it to another you own so that user wouldn't have to re register. :)
