“Is she logged in?”

Yes. She signed up for an account and stays logged in. She gets specific messages that she’s too new to do certain things.

If true (and I've no reason to doubt you) it might mean that some form of posting probation was finally implemented.

We've had a bit of a problem in years past with disruptors signing up just to disrupt, as disruptors often do.

Some argued for a 'pay to play' scheme, while others of us thought that a short probationary thing would suffice to keep most of the true loons away.

But I've been around here awhile, and this is the first time hearing of something like what you've described being actually in place.

Urge just a bit of patience on her, as this place is worth it.

If that pi$$es her off, then she's in the right place. Tell her this old guy wouldn't mind if she toughed out the beginning.
