read only forum?!?!?

[gcbzzzz]

why exactly is that? how that helps the comunity?

lot's of active threads are dying now.

and to make it even more fun... trying to post gives a message "you do not have rights to do that" and only list two reasons! "you are denied this" or "your account is not active"

not helpful at all.

"Active threads are dying now." Of what? Inactivity?

There are several reasons why you might be given that response, but not all that many:

- You are not logged in
- You are trying to post in an archived part of the forum
- You are trying to post in part of ubuntuforums where writing is restricted to very few people, such as the jail or the Resolution Center where you have no business posting, anyway.
