Limited Access

Unread post by Rainman » May 7th, 2013, 5:43 pm

Just learned earlier today that visitors to this sight are not permitted to see the restoration section or the reenacting sections. To see these more recent boards on the site you must be a registered member and logged in. Why is it that the WIKI can be added to and amended by any swinin richard with a link to the internet, no membership required. What are the chances of flip flopping these requirements?

That's a question for Jim. I can't do any of that stuff. My powers are more commensurate with my main job here, deleting spam.

And an OUTSTANDING job you all do Raymond! I'd mentioned the WIKI vulnerability before, but never thought about limited access anywhere on this site. I'm lucky the search feature at the 503 works for non members. :) I once learned that without being logged into SS you can't see their photos. Hard to imagine the restrictions here are intentional, just something that's happening with the newer areas being added. When it was mentioned to me, I passed it along. :D
