paul The =(e)= tag is manually applied in our admin system by a human sometime after your application is accepted. It can take a an hour to a day or so to get applied, during that time you're not recognized by our plugins as a "member"

Hi paul

Sorry, I just saw this. The reason why the server didn't let you join, was because inside MAUL there is a setting called "Status". The server will automatically kick anyone who has their set status to "Inactive". This is because the system already applies your tags to you when you join. When you aren't active, it thinks you are trying to admin impersonate a member of the community. So long story short, simply just go on the forums once a week, and the status shouldn't change beyond active.
