I believe you should now be able to see the front page. I think I figured out the problem. Let me know if you still can't and I'll look further into it.

People with posts over the number of 25 can create blogs and it puts them in a new usergroup. That usergroup for some reason had everything on the front page taken off their priviledge list.

I should work on that twenty-five posts. But if my old post per day averages hold, that's going to take, like, a week. Dammit.

No, anyone under 25 posts should see the front page. It was that once that level was reached the user was put into another group to enable blogs and that group wasn't seeing anything on the front page other than the header and footer I believe.

I also think there is a timed cycle as well, don't know what the timing of said cycle is (every hour, every six...?) though. It also could have been the login/out problem as you said.

Updated the title of the thread to reflect that you should now be able to go into your User CP and change your title to a custom one. You must have over 25 posts for this to work.
If it doesn't work, the forum may need to do a timed cycle. The regularity of this cycle I don't know.

NO! You don't get to say that! Only PAX people have that right. And that's only because I also had my Red vs. Blue lightish red shirt. Since I won't be taking that shirt to PAX next year, and it's not guaranteed that you'd be there, it's unlikely you'll ever be earning that ability. NO SOUP FOR YOU!

Of course, it also encourages everyone to start posting right away and may get us all in the habit of generating forum content. Hmmm

Come now... you don't need something interesting to say in order to post. In fact, I'd wager that the top posters rarely if ever have anything interesting to say. It doesn't stop them, and it shouldn't stop you. ;)
