I know this is a two-edged sword, but it there a way to indicate to a person who was been denied registration as to 'why' that just happened?
I ask, because after receiving an email yesterday stating...
--------------------------------
Your registration has been denied. This forum maintains a zero tolerance policy against Spammers. Please contact us (via the "Contact Us" Link below) if you believe this is in error.
have tried registering several times and always get the same message...not cool!

...I realized a common name like 'sean' should not have been dis-allowed registration just because a spammer somewhere, at sometime has apparently used that common name before.
For now, I disabled the test user name function of this MOD, but wondered if there was anyway to inform the user as to
what the problem was with completing the registration process? I don't think bots would realize the information was there, and it might allow legitimate users to try and re-register given the info.(i.e. Registration Denied due to username, etc)
