Does having power feel pretty awesomeNo, its a huge pain in the ass. I do it out of some perverse sense of duty to finish what I started.

I have resolved the issue. I am not sure how you were set to be locked out.

dunno, it's happened every year since i joined with this account. after the 2nd time I made a new account. then 2 years ago i had it merged with this account when we were allowed name changes. last year it happened and then now this year. strange thing. thanks man.

Can new members post threads in the General Discussion after 15 days or only reply to threads?

That hardly answers the question.

When someone posts a link in a message, the system puts a "no follow" in front of it and the spiders won't pick it up. Can this be changed so the spiders will pick up links from TW?

Here's an example. In this thread I post the link to Digg. TW reformats it and makes it look pretty in the message using the thread title from Digg.
http://www.tribalwar.com/forums/showthread.php?t=473153

Now I view source on that part of the message and find this.
<!-- message --><!-- google_ad_section_start -->
<div id="post_message_11140057"><!-- google_ad_section_start -->No, it's because of this...<br />

<br />
Go Digg it everyone.<!-- google_ad_section_end --></div>
<!-- / message --><!-- google_ad_section_end -->

See the "nofollow" before the link? That makes it invisible to the spiders. Take it out.

The option to view previous posts has disappeared. Has the option been moved or revamped in the update? Where might I find this option now?

please. thank you.
