Title: Anyone else notice this?
Post by: 5.0willgo on November 05, 2006, 11:10:24 AM
You can't browse the site as a guest, you have to log in.

Just wondering if this is a change the admins made or if there's a problem.
People won't join if they can't sample the content ;)

That's something I did temprarily after receiving about 300 spam emails yesterday from an "unregistered" user. Once I figure out how to prevent that happening again I'll remove the restriction.

Actually I think I just found the setting ("allow unregistered users to use contact us system") and disabled it. For some reason vBulletin put that option in a different section. I've re-enabled "guest" browsing but now guests cannot use the email system
