Thanks for the suggestion RP_812.
However, we have recently made some changes to our membership approval process - so as a result members will clearly be notified if they are approved as well as if they are not approved.
I will let GTO answer if any timeframe has been mentioned in the email, and perhaps add it.

We can't afford to be
more specific as :
1) Its a standard template that is sent out with the guidelines
2) Any more specific and it could be considered spoon-feeding!

Interesting idea mclaren. We have reached a fairly high volume of ownership reviews now! Will discuss it within the Support Team.

As Tsk1979 mentioned, this feature has been added recently.
Here is the FAQ entry :

Mclaren, at the moment there is no way to do this -- but you could try using googles search (on the top right of the BHP silver & black skins)
For eg. if you want all fiat threads WITHOUT the word linea, search for :
fiat -linea Quote:

Another interesting suggestion. Similar to gmail's "mute" button.

Great idea.
Prevention is better than cure as they say.
Will see if its possible to include some text on that page.

Comrade - a dealer database is definitely something we would like to have on the portal in the future. We shall be working towards it in order of priority.

Not at all. Our stance is and always will be the same.
Our ad-provider was tweaking some settings, things should return to normal in a few hours.

Indeed something that would be very useful pachchu. We have thought about it many times in the past - but at the moment we are limited by the software. Lets see what we can do.
(Also, it would be great to have a "wiki" first post, so ANY member can add or change content in the first post - which could serve as a large index for certain widespread threads)
