    what areas are you on about mate.... the rules won't change just go help some people by posting and you will get your access...... Only tip is don't spam to get the post count up...

    Sure you don't want to just leech info?

    The post count restrictions were lifted a little while ago, so the post count restriction isn`t in use at the moment. Thats not to say it won`t be re-applied again.

    You should see all the forums except the VIP section.

    The old restrictions were 10 posts. If you were to introduce yourself properly and have a read about, 10 posts is not a great deal.

    Do you find viewing frustrating because you actually have to be shown to give something small in return before you can get information? If so, I think you are in the wrong place. This is a 'community' not a resource for people to leech information.

    Stop whinging and try engaging your brain.

    The link you posted doesn't work because it hasn't got www in it. Put it in and it works, duh.

    It's in a protected/hidden/pending subforum but google (and mods) can "see" the url I think.

    Well I always use www and if I click on a http://digital-forums link then I have to log in again.

    As for the link, what sub-sections can you see in Digital & Analogue TV ?

    none that link doesnt work for me either but i never use that section so wouldnt really miss it, would never have noticed if you hadnt posted.


    diablos, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

    Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
    If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

    Strange, it's been open for a while now and there's 1 post newbies in there as well.

    I guess the forum just doesn't like you.

    I can't see it either. Maybe its a VIP non-privilege?

    Sad thing is I can see some ridiculous formatting on a post above though.
