Changing profile

[system]

Hi all

Excuse my ignorance, but i just went to “My Profile” to change etc time and i cannot locate where to do this. All i have is Account Related Settings under Modify Settings.

Do you have to have a certain number of posts.
Any assistance will be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance as i have to go out for awhile

• The problem comes from drive by spammers, who having registered put objectionable or commercial links in their profile signature to try and gain link promotion, etc.

There have also been cases of the PM function being abused to spam forum members, so you will notice that you can’t use the PM function either.

Unfortunately because of the actions of others legitimate members suffer by the actions to prevent this spamming.

Hi DavidR
A wise decision, who wants or need spammers not me.
