Registration

Register on Monachos.net...

Welcome to the Monachos.net registration process..

We're delighted that you're about to join us in the Monachos.net Discussion Community, to participate in our ongoing discussions of Orthodox Christianity through its patristic, monastic and liturgical heritage. Please take a few moments to set up your account options, and read through the details below.

Required Information

Please enter your real name, which you will use to log-in and by which you will be known in the Discussion Community.

IMPORTANT: Your username must be your real name. Monachos.net operates a policy of all its members being identified by their real names (e.g. 'Michael Johnson') and not monikers (e.g. 'Seeker'). Please enter your real name here as your username, and capitalize it appropriately (e.g. 'Michael Johnson' and not 'michael johnson'); if you wish to abbreviate, please use proper spacing and punctuation (e.g. 'Michael J.' rather than 'MichaelJ' or Michael J'; or 'M. Johnson' rather than 'M Johnson', etc.).

Please note that registrations which do not provide a real name, or do not format it properly, are likely to have the registration declined.

Please enter a password for your user account. Note that passwords are case-sensitive.

Please enter your valid e-mail address. (This will require verification by e-mail, so ensure this address is accurate.)

Please enter the six letters or digits that appear in the image opposite.

Additional required profile information

Please select the category of your membership in the forum: select 'Orthodox' if you are a member of the Orthodox Church of the seven ecumenical councils (i.e. those Chalcedonian Orthodox bodies in direct communion with one of the ancient Eastern Orthodox patriarchates), which is the orientation of the forum itself; or 'Guest from another tradition' for all other traditions. This setting in no way limits access to the forum, but assists members in recognising the traditions represented in the Community. Please see our Community Outline for further details.

This information will appear on your posts. Please choose one of the following options; you can be as broad or precise as you wish (if none of the available options seems suitable, please select 'other' and e-mail the moderator to have an additional option added to the list). Your selection here will also appear in your public Member Profile. If you indicate one of the various Orthodox traditions, a brief summary of that tradition, together with links to further resources, will also be displayed in your profile.

The COUNTRY in which you live

Please select your title. Your selection here will appear in your User Profile, but NOT on your posts. This should not be left blank, but you can enter an alternative title if none of those in the list are accurate for you. Please note this should be a standard formal title by which others can address you, not a self-designation (e.g. 'Sinner').

Select a title (or none) to display ON YOUR POSTS, immediately before your username (note: if your username already includes your title, you should select 'none' here).

Member Information

All timestamps displayed on the forums can be automatically corrected to show the correct time for your location in the world. Simply select the appropriate time zone from the list below.

From time to time, the administrators may want to send you e-mail notices.

If you do not want to receive these notices, disable this option.
