To be honest I nearly didn't register because as a GUEST the forum icon shows the forums as
forum_old_lock.gif
"Forum is Closed for Posting."

And even when you do register like I have now, the forum padlock icons is still on all the forums.

The forum being Closed is quite different to the forum being limited for new users so I suggest the site change the description or clearly make it known the locks are there for new users and not for good.

The site looks closed from the outside to me.

Good call. I've updated the welcome message so guests should now have a clue about how we run things here.

Thanks for the note!
 
Laker fan here.

I registered on KO because Ronny is still one of my favorite players in the league.

I really hope you guys get Melo next year.

What do I need to do to gain access to the rest of the site?

is it 5 or 8 posts? i still get the "you do not have permission to access this page" message. :(

Isn't it more simple to just add meaningful replies to existing threads then adding consecutive posts complaining about stuff? Where's all the rush? The system updates your status once you reach 5 posts but it might not be happening instantly.

Users like you make me rethink the whole membership process, to extend the Lurker status to 50 posts before getting full access. Most of the new members that complain about not being able to start new threads once they registered are the same users that spam the board and the other users via pm, or start new threads on topics already being opened.
