I signed up more than a couple of weeks ago and still get the message that the account must be authorized by an administrator.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention Pman. I actually just heard about that administrator message yesterday and met with our web administrator today to get it resolved. She is looking into it and it will be fixed shortly.
The good news is that while we are finishing working out the bugs on the site, all the content can be accessed without signing in. The fixes and upgrades will be done in the next couple weeks and then the password wall will be activated. Thanks for your patients and continued support of WSB.
