A concern I want to address on the boards.

Uh, I was offline a momment ago checking the boards out and all. And one topic in the Accessible Equipment board caught my eye. I scroll down and I was able to see the post reply box. Now I didn't reply offline to frighten this user or the community as it'll show as #0. So I decided to go into that board, hit the bottom of the page and saw the post new topics link. I was able to post a test topic to see if I was able to create a topic offline. This is disturbing because someone can now post topics, and replies in that one board without needing to log in. I find that a bit concerning because you never know if someone wants to create trouble. My suggestion to admins and cls: Go offline, and check every board to make sure that offliners don't have access to post replies or topics. I did try to private QN a CL and I don't think this person got my QN. So I thought I'd post it here.

actually, I've seen that box before and have tried replying, and while you are able to type into the edit box, once you hit "post reply" a messages comes up saying you have to be logged in to reply to the topic.

yes, you do have to be logged in to reply. Thank you for pointing that out sugarbaby...so this isn't of major concern.
