Help and Advice

Got a question or a problem? Don't worry, our comprehensive help & advice area will answer all your questions!

If you have a question that we haven't answered here, then please do drop us a line.

Why do I need to give my parents email address?

Are you aged 13 or under ?

If yes  .. everyone under the age of 13 has to ask their parents / guardians for permission to join a public forum - this is because of the COPPA laws - Children's Online Privacy & Protection act.

Read more about it from the Official website ~ COPPA USERS
 
If you're not 13 .. was it possible you entered todays date in the first registration boxes ?

 These first boxes are for Your Date Of Birth - not todays date .

These boxes are for your DATE OF BIRTH .. if you accidently wrote in todays date .. the year would then indicate you are under 13 ... and that is why the Parent's email address is then asked for.

Enter Date of Birth - Not todays date

Please don't be concerned though - email us silky@silkysteps.com and let us know what has happened.

We can't manually alter sign up details without adding to the confusion so the easiest option is to delete a new membership and let you register again.
