As can be expected on any forum, we were overrun by spammers and their ridiculous posts! And even after changing the permissions on the different boards, it didn't help any!
So, I have changed it so that you can read all of the posts, but you need to be registered AND approved to post on the forums. I apologize for the added trouble, but it really is necessary to keep the forums free of hacks and spammers wasting our time!
So please, register for an account, and I will go through the approvals daily.
