To see what happens to whom and how and when I kindly referr you to view the Registered users ex March thread in the Admin forum. It's read only for Non-Amins (lucky you ) We endeavour to keep it updated to the best of our ablities. You can help with this by staying current reading the Annoucements and stickies in the Invite Forum. Thank you

How to deal with this?
There's generally two types of "uninvited guests" - curious TORCers that find the site and register with their TORC names. Those can be contacted and informed of the current procedure - invite thread, 2 days discussion + 9 days poll.
Then there's the mysterious names that nobody recognises: dragon, mysterywoman. Those are suspected trolls and dealt with more expediently...
This is what we've been sending them:
After comments that it was a bit harsh, I've rewritten it a little so that it reads like this:

it is an invitation only board. You have not been
approved to register and therefore your account will
be deleted.

Ok, so if you have any ideas on how to deal with this issue... please post them.
