      site viewing

      why did it change to you have to be registered to view the site? I can't log onto any sites at work. Before I would browse the site and if there was something I liked I would have to log onto my phone. Now I can't browse. WEAK sauce.

      Nope. Log out. Look around the site. You get 5 post views then it blocks you.

      I'm not talking about logging in. I understand I am unable to log in because of preferences set by the admin of the company. I'm talking about if you're not logged in (in my case I am unable to log in at work) you can only view 5 posts before you can no longer view any posts.

      yeah this is totally true. i logged out, looked at about 5 posts and it gave me this message,
      "Hey there!

      It appears that you've exceeded the maximum number of posts you can view, but wait, there's a simple solution. To unlock the forum and continue viewing messages, all you need to do is sign up for a free account. The entire process takes just a few minutes so create your account now and view as many threads as you like!

      i think that we should let people check out the site alittle bit more to decide if they want to become a member or not. i personally checked out SDR as a guest for about two weeks or so before i joined. it might slow the site down if we overload the server with excess profiles that people will set up to check out the site, might only use it for a week and then forgotten about and never used again. IMO

      That is extremely common with forums. It's to encourage people to register. I can think of a few large forums reef and non reef related that do this.

      all my forums (Reefing/Auto/Guns/Dirtbike) I visit dont require you to have to register to look at threads just if you want to post....and 90% let you chat in the chat box if they have that function with out being a premium...my 2 cents
      120 gallon. I throw money at it, and it grows colorful sticks.
