Default What username needs to be reported?

Do you mean I have to report my username or do you mean the username of the person responsible for spreading the scam virus test around? I believe the person who told me about it is innocent and really didn't know whether this was a scam or not at the time he posted it. Well maybe not innocent, but not a bad guy anyhow.

Default verify verify

your emails have not been verified is my guess. go back and look for the email that got sent to whatever address you used for sign up and click the link. If you cant find it then change the email address you have under account settings or regenerate the confirmation email depending on if your email account is deleting it as spam. either way whatever works.

Hey get this earth people; I have better access to a whole boat load of stuff if I log out. Joe Smuckavitch off the street has more privileges than I do being a member. This website has some great information, but the software needs some help big time.

Same here.

Is there a minimum post count for access to PM and Photo Galleries?

im going to make an announcement about this. to stop these stupid spammers from sending trash through the PM system, new users cannot access the galleries (they were posting spam in there too), the PM system or the members list. this is to protect our members and in the long run, new members really dont need to be PMing people.

members stop being "new members" after 10 days and 5 posts.
