This site is built around the "NoThiefsAllowed" Ustream Channel. The site (NoThiefs.com) is separate from Ustream.TV The site is just a "tool" for putting everything in one place.
The site is a community of people who watch NoThiefs's UStream channel and wanted more options. A place to gather other than just the Ustream chat box.
When you log into Ustream (Ustream.tv) you are logged into Ustream. NoThiefsAllowed (Keven) just uses them to stream through.
When you are signed up on the site AND logged in, you can
-post in the forum
-use the PM (private message) system on the site
-use the the site chat along with NoThiefs Ustream chat (as long as you are logged into Ustream too)
-use the site calendar
-you basically can use the entire site
And please do use it! Its yours. The group. The community. The people. Without the people using and posting on it, its just an abandoned parking lot out in cyber space!
This place will be what YOU reading this turns it into!
To sign up only takes about 2 minutes:
Go to top right corner.
Click Register.
Click agree to terms.
Enter a Username, a valid Email address, and a password.
Hit save.
Confirm password and enter confirmation code.
Hit save.
Now go to the email you used, open the email from NoThiefs and hit activate.
Thats it, now you can log into NoThiefs.com
The username you use can be the same as you use on Ustream.TV but it DOES NOT have to be. It makes it easier for us to know who you are but, you be who ever want to be.
Use any password you want. Make a good one but make one you will remember. DO NOT forget it. We have NO access to it. DO NOT give it to anyone. You are the only one who needs it. If you forget it, we can make up one and give it to you. You can then log in and change it. That's all we can do.
Email - Its just needed to activate your account. You can make up a gmail or even a hushmail (takes one minute)
In my option - you should keep your personal email address separate from your "use online" one any way. If you don't have a "use online" email already - go make one up. It will be there for future use.
And finally last - If you don't get an email right away - there may have been user error somewhere in the sign-up process. It could also be the site waiting for Administrator approval. The site (for various reasons) sees some new members as spammers. We are very sorry for all the security measures but its better to be safe than sorry.
