Why can't I access "member only" areas??
« on: January 18, 2014, 01:01:22 PM »
I went thru the process of becoming a member and when I log on WG greets me with my name, etc.  I've posted a few times with no problems but can't seem to access the "wags members only" areas. What did I do wrong registering? Could an administrator clue me in? Thanks

Hello Steve,
When your name turns Blue, you will then know that your membership application has been approved, and you will then have access to the "Darkside".  :)  The approval process is not instantaneous as the WAGS Membership Committee must review and approve all new member applications.  Hopefully it will happen soon. :)
Once it is approved, your profile will be set, and voila, new boards will appear that you did not see before.

OK-Thanks. I'll wait. I've gathered lots of information off this site and just cleaned and seasoned my first E-Bay find Griswold. Going to cook some eggs this AM and try her out for the "first" time....

Hello Steve. Thank you for joining WAGS as a member. What was your first 'ebay find Griswold' that you bought and cleaned?  :)
