some tips

[Luc]

Hello,
I was at whatismyip.com and saw the forum post how to port forward. Clicked it, and only one post yet which may not help much. To help I registered.. or tried to. After 3 times the security question worked, appearantley Mikkey Mouse isn't from Disney (even looked up how you spell it), and I still don't know a 4 letter populair computercompany with a D. Then the submit button was disabled for some time.
Anyway, after some frustration and patience it finally it worked.

Then the forum, I can't edit MY OWN settings! The user control panel isn't accessible, the options not, my 'details' not, my profile not, and the user list not too. I wanted to e-mail about this, but then the contact page is disabled too!

I know you are trying to block spammers (I dont see any so I think it works), but a contact address would be nice. In extreme case enter it like this:
A!D$M*I)N [at] WhAtIs))my((IP [dot] com
and tell the people to filter the letters out.
Also editting your own profile should be allowed?

I didn't see any spam, and I don't want spam too, but this many measures and disabled options are rediculous.

I hope for new users it wil be improved, this way you just make them leave.
