I have changed the Sound Off forum to phpBB3 allowing me greater control over users and postings. I have been trying to clean up the offensive posting on the forums and removing the posters from the users group. This was becoming impossible to keep up with.
New rules are in effect that restrict guest to only view the content. New graphic security feature eliminates the ability of spammers to automatically post to the forums. Please register again on the forum. I will approve your user ids as soon as I can.
Let's get this forum going again.
