I have a question for frequent forum-goers/moderators/administrators:
I don't post on many forums. In fact, this is really the only one; but I recently tried to register on another forum dedicated to one of my favorite author's work. Actually, I did register... twice (two different usernames and emails); but for some reason the same thing happened to me both times: I have no authority to access threads, no authority to contact any other members, and no authority... for anything, basically. It welcomes me, it lets me see my own profile, but won't let me read any posts or, therefore, reply.
Is there some kind of "waiting" period on forums where administrators have to clear your registration, or something? I already tried contacting a moderator a few days ago, and haven't heard anything back.
