+### Enable Self Account Creation
+
+Currently the only way to enable users to create their own accounts is to manually edit the submitty.json configuration file. The default location for this
+file is `/usr/local/submitty/config/submitty.json`. By default, `self_account_creation_allowed` is set to `false`. To enable it, change this to `true`. 
+
+### Email and User ID Requirements
+
+Below are the current accepted requirements for user_ids. 
+* If `all` is set to `true`, then `length` parameters are the only parameters checked. 
+
+* If `require_name` is true, then the user_id must start with and contain a certain amount of characters from the given name and/or family name. 
+
+* If the user does not have the character amount for the given part of the name, then !add fix!
+
+* `given_first` determines whether the given name or family name must come first. (e.g. Test User -> userte vs teuser)
