Change Suggestion for Pending Addition to Website 4 years 9 months ago #76124

Almost all my new members chose to Opt Out of sharing their info with the website until I explain that not Opting In deletes them from the website and they/we are dead in the water. I resend the message or delete them and start over. Eveyone then Ops in. May I suggest a better wording of "if you DECLINE ....." to the following: "If you DECLINE to allow your contact information to be stored & used as described you will be deleted from the website and unable to login and use the website and it's services."
