Need some help here...
 
I mentioned this before, but i figured I post this under a new topic on Dark Hood's behalf.
He is registered, but is unable to post. This is the message he is getting:

"Sorry, you do not currently have permission to post messages in this forum.
ยป Please use your browser's back button to return."

And now with the old forums closed off, he has nowhere to post. Please someone help.

Hi Dragadon...

I just fixed up Dark Hood's posting. It was due to that age check feature. We took that off as it's too annoying!!! And no forums apart from the Infogrames ones use it anyway.

I had the same problem, that age check thing sucked, especially this is a board for all ages. My problem seemed to fix itself relatively quickly though.

Right about now, its time to rock!

Weird thing about UBB - It makes the changes to all your posts, so you can't compare with your earlier posts to see if it's better or not. That confused me a lot when I was trying to figure out my signature. I guess it's ok though because it makes you look more professional when others can't see your mistakes :D

Also, there's no "Preview" function like EZBoard. :(

The age check is real annoying. Just like the big text - erm accouncment, or so. Put it away.

They have done that already.

I saw a hack where you can get Preview Post... because I like that too.

The if you change your sig it changes for all posts... kinda cool as we won't get old dead links or if people violate the sig policy, we won't have to put up with their old large pictures once they change them. But sometimes it is cool to see your old sigs.

As for the age check... we removed that... that was why DH and I think someone else was set to not be able to post. But you have to have the standard terms and conditions... we are going to alter them to have our Forum Rules in them though.

I also deleted all DH's tests apart from the last one if anyone wonders where they went.
