What's up with profile viewing?

Hello Dimitris,

This one is probably for you. I have not been able to view other peoples profiles for about a week now. I just get the message:

An Error Has Occurred!
Many apologies, but you can't view just any profile.

Thanking you kindly in advance!

Hello EEG,
I'm sorry about that, please do not take it personaly.
In order to avoid spammers who just join a forum for harvesting other member's emails and other personal details, I have made a rule for our members.
The rule is that you will be able to see any profile after you have posted your 20th post.
I'm not sure righ now if not the 20th then the 30th.

goodnight ,

Dimitris

Good morning,

Thank you Dimitris, I will try not to go all paranoid I just looked at all the posts that I have posted from my profile and it says 38 in total, so should not be too long now.

Thanking you kindly!

Kalimera!

Well hee.. you have been traped again by me! If you look at your profile box on the left you will see that it says 18 posts. So you may have posted 38 posts but the forum takes as real posts only the 18 of them.
That;s another trick of me... the forum raises your ranks adding your posts from all boards EXCEPT the General Chat.
It would only give ranks with higher permitions to members who are using the forum and not just chatting.
Of course the general chat is a great area of our forum but it is only visible by members.
I;m off to paint my taverna now the season is starting next month.
See you soon!
