Turtle Shell Productions Testing

I have done that...  It is not a VISIBLE change (both "groups" are still called "No Force", but the 0-5 post count folks will not be able to PM

Very cool thank you, double checking that is to send and receive correct?

That way when one of the unscrupulous characters that tries to prey on a new member will get a message telling them they can't send a message
to the new member. that way if they really want to keep stealing people they will have to work harder at it and we might catch a few doing it.

Obviously I'm never against referring members to places that are legitimate requests but its the people that are here specifically to
take business away and cause problems that this will help discourage them form that behavior.

Thank you again and again

Something Important to implement I think would be that NEW members can not send or receive PM messages until they have 5 posts.

I think this will do 2 things

1. It will encourage new members to post and be active.
2. It may help cut down on those who simply come here waiting for new members and Pm them to join competing sites.

sticky background is updated

In addition to, no longer shows who all is viewing a topic when you are in a topic. can that be turned on?

I did also notice it is hard to tell what is a stickied topic can those be colored? or just highlighted in some way?

The Live site is looking good, just wanted to remind about the recent posts view-able in the info center
and I did also notice it no longer shows who all is viewing a topic when you are in a topic.
