Why does it say Registered users only for a reply when you must sign in to reply?


RE: Registered Users Only by toddy on 09-24-2004 at 11:01 PM

because when u sign up you get a registration sent to your email, so u have to click a link to activate your account !!! but u can't still sign into the forum with out activating your account

I thought the reason was because on some forums theres the ability to post as a guest, oh well :P

That's correct.  Although guest posting is disabled here it can be enabled.  The "Registered users only" note appears next to anything that the guest can't use, but registered users can...fairly obviously. ;)
RE: Registered Users Only by michael_m91 on 09-25-2004 at 02:15 AM

What? How can you activate guest posting? Can't only admins do that?


RE: Registered Users Only by WDZ on 09-25-2004 at 04:11 AM

Of course only admins can do it. Guest posting will not be enabled here... we have enough spam already. :refuck:

Many parts of the board are designed with guests in mind, simply because it's possible to allow them to do stuff.


RE: Registered Users Only by michael_m91 on 09-25-2004 at 04:23 AM

So if there never will be Guest Posting then wouldn't it be smart to remove the (Registered Users Only)?

Also There should be another forum that guests can post in or maby let guests post in T&T.

Useless. :p

It doesn't do any harm by being there, so why should I waste my time removing it? |-)

No, I don't agree. Registering isn't that hard...
RE: Registered Users Only by michael_m91 on 09-25-2004 at 04:29 AM

Lol but lots of people register make one post and leave forever.

But you make a good point so w/e


RE: Registered Users Only by CookieRevised on 09-25-2004 at 06:26 AM

Lots of (random but also related Plus!) questions will be asked by guests in T&T in that case. This is not a good thing for obvious reasons.

Good time to close the thread, I think. :banana:
