I can't send PMs and I don't where my mail box is. Trying to contact a member, there's an error message saying I'm not permitted to use the feature. Besides the 'Discussion' section, again, an error bars access to the rest. Could someone help me out?

Aren't PM's disabled for a while for new members? Been a long time so may be wrong. You're best off waiting for a mod to see this to help you out.

No PMs for newbies? How am I supposed to contact a mod for help? I tried mail using address boards@everlasting-star.net and I got a return to sender.

I sent a PM to one of the mods for you Cat

Thank you. Hopefully you've directed their attention to here in the message.

I am looking for a good FAQ, it's been a few years since i last posted here. I wish i could have remembered my old password, but it was just gone from my memory & i have a new e-mail addy. It's helping me though to get back in the swing of things by reading all i can about "newbie" stuff. I feel silly being a newbie after all that time, but hey, i suddenly feel younger (:
