If I'm not mistaken, that is considered part of the advanced section, the rules regarding access to which are all here. Happy reading!

Hey, it is! I think I'm going to wait a bit more before I apply for the advanced section though. A few of my 40 posts were accidental double posts. This site has been really helpful, though. I wouldn't have gotten as far as I have without the information here.

I'm not even sure if they are still allowing people in. I applied, after perhaps a few years and 100 posts then waited perhaps 4 months and asked a moderator if there was any update on my status. I wasn't even afforded the courtesy of a reply.

Well that's a bummer, but I guess all I can do is apply and see what happens.

I don't really mind not having the access, but a response to a query shouldn't be too much to expect surely.

Which mod did you email? Some are more active than others, and some people come and go for months at a time, its not a paid 8 to 5 job.
We are currently processing a list of applicants, and were just talking about it last night, so believe me things do happen behind the scenes even if it takes a few months. Sorry for any delays, we are about to take on another mod or two, so things should go smoother in the near future.

btw Cledry, you're on the current list, and so far getting YES votes, we are still waiting on some mods to vote, like I said they haven't been around, so we're emailing private addresses to get them to visit and participate. What can I say, life happens. Normally a single mod's vote isn't enough to get someone into Advanced, several mods have to say Yes or No.

Thanks for your patience,

Agree'd, it would be nice to have access, but it isn't the end of the world. This is still an amazing board and i plan to continue providing content here as long as i can

I believe it was "unlisted". I didn't want to PM others afterward because I know you guys probably get lots of messages. I have moderated other forums so know it is a thankless task at times.
