What's happening? I tried to open the forum as a guest, which I normally do before logging in and it wouldn't open until I logged in. Has anyone else experienced this? Can guests no longer read the forum? That would be a shame!

Yeah I changed it so that we won't recieve any spam from bots and the like.
Also makes the site less susceptible to attack. Its purely for security reasons.

But guests couldn't send spam. They would have to be logged in, wouldn't they? Has there been a lot of spam?

This means you can't view the forum without logging in.

I'm afraid I don't like it either. It means that only members can read the posts. I think a lot of readers won't bother to register. I personally don't know of any other forum that is for members only.

I know that, ChewChew. There are lots of people out there who just like to read. I just hope that none of us have posted anything here that may have caused this decision.
