Forum access question ???
« on: March 12, 2011, 06:43:45 PM »
I wondered if there was a loop hole in the site software or was it meant to be, BUT, did u know

that even if you are not logged into the site (via username and password) that if u click on recent posts square icon down the bottom on the left hand side of the page, you can read every recent posts going back to long ago.

Was the software meant to be like that, so anyone can read without logging in, and that the username and password is only used for those who want to type into a post/thread ?

just wondering ?  !@#

Yes, we made the forum read-only public a couple of months ago, nothing here to hide, so we thought why not let lurkers read if they want to without pressure, and participate if they want by creating an account.
