I cant read messeges or pm anyone?

This is what I get and there is a message waiting for me to read it.

I also cannot highlight any members name and so cannot pm anyone including the mods to tell them about my problem, cheers, John.

Hi John Beachcomber,
Maybe they are keeping tabs on you............ :shock:


"I've looked into your problem and the reason why you personally cannot send or read private messages is because you are in the "Newly Registered Users" group. That group is an initial group that only new members should be in. The group's ultimate purpose is to prevent spam for the board while new users become accustom to the forum. This prevents spammers from being able to "run wild". You and all of the members you know for sure aren't spammers should be removed from this group so that they can send private messages".

Chill out John........ the Chosen Men will sort it out for you.............. :D
All my best learning experiences start with a problem I need to solve.

Thanks Enrique, although a member since 2005 there was a name change a month or two ago so maybe that's why, I await a mod then to take me off the 'List', cheers, John.

P.S. Saying that I remember pm-ing someone successfully since the name change................

Working perfectly thank you all very much, John.
Fishing and gardening, it's what I do.
