Hi
A year ago or so I tried to get into this forum to exchange info and share my tuning knowledge and hunting pics and stories, it became SO difficult that I gave up, admittedly I'm not a techy person so probably it's my fault. 
I met one block after another, either "You are not permitted to reply to this" or "there is a problem with...." or "you have exceeded your attempts" or... And it was a never ending list of "firewalls" 

Jumping to today, now, up to date, same thing all over again. 
Looked at the forum today and what I typed yesterday Did appear! 
Now Myson asks for a PM, no idea how to do it, get blocked by one of the above all over again, so if anyone reads this I'm needing help as its too hard, too big for me and way to many walls

Hi Pete,

I believe you have to have sent quite a few posts before Private Messaging is allowed - it's to stop scammers bombarding everyone with messages.

I have sent you an email instead.  Please do use email back to me.

We recently have had several "pests" invading this forum (!) and Nunga has tried his best to stop these idiots from ripping us off!

You'll quickly get used to how the forum works - persevere! Smile

It's worth it because there's lots of skilled people on here who give excellent advice and help to all levels of airgunning expertise.

Talk soon.....

I have trouble with the uploads going up at any speed.
Looks like it hasn't loaded,keeps sitting there ,so you go to upload it again, still sitting there try again ,then box pops up saying you cant spam.
Or its going nowhere so you select all and copy just in case, then go out of the thread then back in and find out it did accept your post.
In the end I just wait a minute or 2+ and it does it itself or jump out of thread and back in.
It may be a problem Nunga is not aware of. Ive just been assuming its my ph but maybe not.
Next biggest hassel may be image size. If im having trouble with a file that is to large either crop it ( youll be surprised how much you can lose with crop in file size) or screen shot the image crop it to size.
Screen shots tend to be way lower size files.
Perseverance. Txt, photo, occasionally email is all ive ever needed and that's only 3 things you need to learn.
Beside all that I want to see hunting pics and here tuning tips.
Think of it as learning a animals habits. Once you sort it.👍

As far as I know this is the only forum in NZ left for mainly airgunners, so we appreciate your participation.

I have boosted your post count to 40, so I am hoping that was the majic number for you to be able to send pms. Give it another go and let me know.

Yes, upload speed when postinf is slow for me too, but I just wait a few seconds and everything goes through.
Cropping a photo or creating a collage is another good way to get multiple photos on as the file size gets altered low enough.

I am aware of this site running very slow when posting messages. sometimes it will take 15 seconds before it does anything, but other times it is very fast. I think that is a database permissions issue with my hosting provider as i have problems at time with the emails that i host with them as well. But i have never had any errors apart from when the image uploader was causing problems which is now fixed.

And Robo9 your profile now looks like you will be able to access private messages now as well.

My spam comments box was from me hitting the send button more than once. Surprisedly the poll i just put up sends the messages through at break neck speeds.
So it would look as if it is server end.
