MikeSyd Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Hi, Im assuming with the boytoy/gayguide merge competed the 10 posts rule is still the same or is there a different gayguides requirement (never used gayguides before so dont know what it did/does)? And is there a thread/post with a list of the restricted forums? Might encourage more newbies to persevere if they knew what they were missing out on (like the Americas forum). Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Riobard Posted March 2, 2021 Members Share Posted March 2, 2021 Here is the forum heading group that displays on the main page, along with the open access exclusively viewable headings, only if a logged-in registered member, presumably also meeting the minimum posting criterion ... splinter1949 and TotallyOz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zackbr1952 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 I don't know why but my boytoy user id did not transfer to this site so I set up a new account. Cannot view the Latin America forum so I am assuming its the 10 post restriction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got an e-mail, did a password reset, and finally gained back my access. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HairyFather415 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Thank you for posting this. Didn't realize there was a posting requirement to gain access to discussion and reviews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flguywest Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Thanks, I will start working towards ten posts. I already got a new account name when original name from the very beginning apparently didn't transfer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't know why my boytoy id did not move over, but anyway, the 10 post minimum is difficult since the one forum of interest to me is the S. America and its locked. I don't want to post elsewhere just for the post bump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zackbr1952 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 I could not seem to log in and see all the forums with my boytoy id (Zackbr1950) so I created a new user id Zackbr1952 As such I know I will have to post 10 times, hopefully I wii then see the Latin America forum.

The other ID is moved over. I think you are using the wrong password and that is why you can't access it. Do you want me to send you a link to change the password?

Members Riobard Posted March 4, 2021 Members Share Posted March 4, 2021 Interestingly, the Recent Updates when logged in is not reflecting the fora that are accessible when logged in. However, the Posts section does display recent posts in those fora. Not a major problem ... just pointing it out. On BT, both Recent Updates and Posts included the latest post alerts, some alignment in terms of giving the reader a heads up about updated contributions.

Jun Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Thanks for the info!. i couldn't login using my old boytoy account so i created new account here. I am going to Brazil end of May hoping I could get latest info from here before my trip and also post my trip like I had done in the past in BT, but Latin America Forum is locked and I have to make 10 posts to see it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dtnow Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Thanks everyone. Another newbie here - couldn’t find the forums being mentioned so I guess I need to post on the limited number of full access ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the "Invisible Forums" Announcement says on the Forum Home Page "We have two types of forums: public forums and member only forums. In order to see the member only forums, you must have 10 approved posts on the site. The Latin America Forum, the European Forum and the photo forum are three such forums."
