Where do the forums go to hide?

Featured Replies

When I log on under my user name (GACSavannah) I can see a whole long list of forums, starting with the FAQ Forums, then the Avsim Specific Forums, then the Topical Forums, on down the long list, each with it's own associated forums. When my son logs in on his user name (BobbyG), he can only see the FAQ forums, the X-Plane Forums, the Rise of Flight Forum, and the Board Statistics,but all of the other forums go away, and I can not seem to figgure out how to get them to show up under his user name. What am I missing?

First thought..Be sure to check under "My Controls" as you can hide or display any of them with settings there.. under "Block forums"

Thank you Staggerwing. I have tried that, and infact tried it again just to be sure. After clicking on the "Show All Forums" link, he has no more forums than he had before. One thing that I find interesting is that I tried to reply to you while still logged onto his user name, and I was prohibited from making a reply. It said "Sorry, you do not have permission to reply to that topic"Any other thoughts?

Looks like he just registered at Avsim, you might want to give it 24hrs and see if it all kicks in for him.. might just be in validation still.

OK, he created his username on Friday, it is now Tuesday. Still no change. What am I missing here?
