Thai bricks Posted October 8, 2019 I'm wondering, why am I as a new member denied access to the tutorials forum? I'm not just new to this forum, but also to Technic. A message to admins remains without reply... Regards, Peter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MAB Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) Which tutorial are you barred from?It seems strange as new users are often the ones that need access to the tutorials on using the site. Edited October 8, 2019 by MAB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thai bricks Posted October 8, 2019 It's in user Pandora's signature (and others), right in the welcome post entitled "Welcome to Eurobricks New Member! Get Started Here!" This is the link: https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=19193 When I click this link I get: Sorry, there is a problem You do not have permission to view this content. Error code: 2F173/H Thanks for your time, Peter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MAB Posted October 8, 2019 Yeah, all users seem to be blocked from that thread. Presumably it is an old link that should be removed from any welcome message. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deraven Posted October 8, 2019 A quick search shows that since at least 2017 there have been problems with that link. Not sure if it's intermittent or if someone still has an outdated signature, but you should be able to find all the same info by looking at the few pinned posts with FAQs, rules, etc., here: https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/forum/6-forum-information-and-help/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peppermint_M Posted October 8, 2019 https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/forum/167-new-member-section-please-read-before-starting/ Anyone with less than ten posts should see/be able to access the forum through that link. Once you make ten posts, the subforum is hidden. @Thai bricks, does this link let you in? Please try it out before you make any more posts! Out of interest, does my signature work correctly? As staff, I can access plenty of parts of the forum that normal users can't. So I can't test it myself without faffing about with spare accounts... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thai bricks Posted October 9, 2019 Hi @Peppermint_M, Yes, that link works. Like I said above, if you go to the only topic there at the end of the 1st post there is the link in question (in the sig). I have also come across that link in one or two of the other FAQ/noob topics. Thank you both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
