    Ok what I am trying to do is create a simple form for people who wish to join, in other words they send me a couple of preferred user id's and their email address I then register them and send them the info so that they are able to log in. I won't let them use the registration for users in the normal way, I will have access to that only when I register them. Hope this is clear?

    Making a form to get the details from them is Okay. However, the registration page should be gone through to register them. It doesn't make sense to register each & every user yourself.

    Because I wish to register all the members myself, I have seen it in operation on other forums and it works very well in fact I know of a forum with over 10,000 members and they have always do it, it does help to stop spammers etc.

    Is that Forumotion? I believe not.
    One way is to stop registration for new members. Create a form for users to send you the details. Once, you receive the details. You can activate the registration & register the users.

    The 10,000 members isn't a Forumotion site you are correct.

    So how would I do that?

    Do what? You said, you already created the form right?

    Users & groups>Users Options.
    Allow new members: No.
    Save.
