Welcome again Olivia. You first logged in at 11::00 on 7/15 and your initial post came under moderation as a spam preventive measure. I guess you could term it "probation". This was all explained in a welcome message that flashed by at an impossible to read speed. Thus far the computer weenies have not been able to slow that down. At 11:40, I (one of the sites moderators) approved your first post and you're in. As soon as the computer does computer things.
Immature? Perhaps. Effective? Yes. A PIA to all parties? Sometimes, but it beats the forum being filled with spam. And if you think the "green" question is stupid, let me ask you about Canada....:scratchhead:
You should have full capabilities here, post, reply, PM, in short order.. Hope you'll stick around.
