Yes, welcome Joejoe. I won't really be of any help, I'm sure, helping you figure things out since I'm no computer geek myself but hope you'll enjoy joining in the conversations here.

I cant understand how to fill out everything i really want to participate but its hard to do i need some help.

I am new as well and I am occasionally frustrated when I am reading through a topic and want to post because I haven’t posted enough times to be granted access yet. So, I hide my time and post where I can for now. Which seems very limited. My advice, search for topics of interest and post where you can. I am looking forward to getting more involved as topics open to me.

It might be helpful, and a bit less frustrating, if there was a thread that listed when one gets access to post in the different topics. To me, anyway, it seems very random.

Send natman a message. I had the same issue and, if I recall correctly, he gave me permissions to post in every area.

I think this is something that should be eliminated, at least for now, because there are so few of us on the forum anyway.

Jude, I don't see your email anywhere on your profile page.

All that post states is that as you progress you get more access, but it does not tell you where and what your access has expanded to.

Resident: May read all the forum posts, and may ask questions and post in several of the general forums. May view from three to five specified photo albums. May upload a personal avatar approved by the Site Administrator.

Permanent Resident: May post in more of the general forums, and has access to more of the photo albums. May upload photos for a personal album.

Native Resident: Receives access for posting in all the public forums, and may access all the photo albums.

Which general forums? I am not trying to be difficult I would just like to participate in more discussions.

RMOlson,

If you look at the descriptions of the forums in the Index, the last line tells you what permissions you need, if any.

I recall a first-person shooter computer game that has "God mode".
Is there a God mode for this forum?

wow! The difference between one little period vs a comma and it screwed up a whole month's worth of e-mail......... Well at least it is not like a tiny mistake like that could have issued a nuclear launch code or something.......... Is It ? .............

Don't feel too bad, NASA crashed a rocket because of a missing minus sign. It had to do with negative (or lack thereof) feedback in the steering commands. So, instead of correcting the deviation and returning to the desired path, the feedback just added to the problem.

You can't post on all the fora until you have a high enough post count.
You can't have a high post count because you do not access to all the fora.

Catch 22.

Or you can post on those fora that you can access in order to boost your post count, like this post.
