We're pleased that you wish to participate in the discussion here on the TIER website.  However, due to the large amount of automated spam and bot account creation requests we receive, we no longer have the time to web search people's names and email addresses to try to judge the legitimacy of account requests ourselves.  Therefore we ask that you provide the following information in order to distinguish yourself as an actual human (none of this information will be publicly shown):

  • Provide your real name (first and last!)
  • Particularly if you have given a non .edu or .org email address, and especially if you're using a free email service address like hotmail, gmail, yahoo, etc., please provide a brief one or two sentence explanation of who you are and what your interest in this area is.  
  • A link to your organization's webpage will help us more quickly verify your application.  

Again, the above is only intended to distinguish yourself as a legitimate person - though we also are happy to get to know who you are.  Unfortunately, due to the spam: 

!!!*** If you do not enter the above information your account will NOT be created ***!!! 

 Thanks!
