Hi, everybody. I haven't been active in the forum for a while, but am back to vaping exclusively after mixing it with analogs for a couple of years. NOT recommended! I'm wondering if I need to post in beginners forum 5 times before I can post in other areas. I wanted to ask a couple questions in the V4L forum but it says I can't post. I had to have my password changed in order to log in today so I guess it could be because of that? Glad you're still here and bigger & better than evah!

Thanks for the reply. I probably should have added that I believe I could post outside beginner forum back then, but now can't. Is that because of my 2years of inactivity or because I had to have password changed today? It's no big deal. Just curious. And I want to participate in a game that ends today. :blush: But I can wait til I have 5 posts if I have to. Certainly have no complaints about the rules. Thanks again.

That's weird. Your sig is obviously showing your 2009 join date... but no posts except the current ones? (You did post back then, didn't you?) Have you looked via your Settings options to see if it brings up any of your old posts?

I may be mistaken about being able to post back then, Rickajho. Settings did bring up old posts, but only 2. I'm pretty sure I posted a lot more than that, but that's all in the past. It's a new day and a new beginning! I recommitted last nite to NO MORE ANALOGS! In case y'all don't know, those things'll KILL ya :p . Na ga do it no mo. Time to start healing from my momentary lapse of reason.

I joined to answer a post in an rba thread and apparently have to knock out 15 before that happens. The posts seem to go by pretty quick. I suppose to those familiar with the scene it will seem a little cumbersome to have to do it, but I suspect the vast majority of users joining up are brand new so the rule is probably tried and true.
