I the old forum I saw the other member who was looking at a forum section.

Here I can't see any members in the forum section - or do I need new glasses?

You don't see anybody else in the section because you're the only person there. We have only 8 members so far.

At the old forum the people can register.
I thought it is closed for such things.

I can't write there any PM - that is closed.

That's interesting considering all the e-mails I was getting in the past about not being able to register.

I had issues registering because of the question: "Which animal has claws, kittens or lambs?" Due to me being a non-native English speaker I could not think of such an animal. Luckily after 6 or 7 guesses the page refreshed and showed another question.

Perhaps it is best to remove this question from the form. Also, I am very curious now what the answer should have been...!

Hi Arvid84,
I had yesterday the same problem.
I don't know the answer.
But with me was the same what you told.
You are now online....  :)

Ah, I see how that can be read incorrectly. I'll change the comma to a colon. (Gantry wrote the questions.)

For the non English speaking people is it not easy.

I thought we become some questions about the world of carcassonne...

Ok, I changed all the questions to things that Carcassonne fans should be able to answer.

Scott, the people are a little bit confused with the registration.

They don't know that the "password" need not only
the small letters.
Here in the new forum the "Password" need big and small letters.
A combination with big and small letters and numbers is possible.

Should I post this at the old forum, too?

If people are confused, then by all means post something about it. I found the error message fairly self-explanatory when I tried to register with an all lowercase password, but maybe it's one of those language issues?

I wrote again an email to mjharper.

mjharper has to link his FAQ back to the new forum.

The FAQ are having a link to the old forum.
