Hi Aldebaran and welcome. I think your dilemma got caught up in a pre-election bun fight. I am sure it will be rectified for you soon.

If you're worried about me voting in this Forum poll that's coming up, I'm not interested in doing that. I don't know anybody all that well, either from here or other forums.

Do you think I could lose my training wheels anytime soon guys?
Don't fret, we really don't bite very often. :mrgreen: PM/contact AiA, he seems to be here more often than the others. I thought it had been cleared up. It is not usual for new posts to wait for "approval" on this Forum. Something has screwed up on the Control Panel, I suspect. AiA will sort it out ...

Oh, and welcome. Don't get put off with the nonsense. :rose

I've sent you a PM, to check the system.

Obviously you can't message AiA. As Aussie isn't here - I'll message the mods and see what's happened.

Didnt realise that Australia was allowed to use the term Champagne without upsetting the French

I thought this was sorted but obviously not. It's a glitch but not a good look for a new member, regardless of who he/she is.

I agree. I've just sent a message to AiA and FD. Hopefully one of them can fix the problem.

I messaged AIA earlier. Hopefully he can straighten it out when he's next online.
