I tried to post a message in the pond forum but got bounced back - and of course my message went into limbo

As I am a complete novice anyway I'll try a test message, see if it works here - I hope I won't create too much of a mess here

Otherwise I think I will have to wait another day or so until my profile is completely accepted?

Well, at least that worked - now let's see if we can reply too...

I've checked the profiles and it appears to be working.. what happens when you try to post in the pond forum? and which pond forum is it? (I will check the settings for that forum).

I tried it again and it worked this time - it's in the chat pond one - the first in line (about the fish abroad) - but the response i got first was that they couldn't find a thread - i had to log in again too - probably newbie fever But now I know I will save my message before even trying to post - beter saf(v)e than sorry

Thanks for the very fast reply!
