    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    Hi, dont hit your head against the wall, the blood is hard to get off for the cleaner.

    All newbies posts are moderated for the first few posts, especially if they include an URL.

    Most spammers include an URL, this is how we catch and stop them.

    Have patience

    Looks like the mods havent got to this yet.. For your first couple of posts (Cant remember the number, but it is very low), the mods will need to aproove them before they appear in the thread, it is a way they stop the spam and p0rn...

    Welcome to the nuthouse by the way
    I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

    I have been down into the deepest part of the dungeon and twiddled a few knobs so you should be able to see your posts.

    A moderators lot is not a happy one, not a happy one.
