when I review my own posts I'm marked as A regular until I log in. then I go back to being marked as A new arival. Just wondering why that is.

At the time of reading you've got 11 posts - you're a new arrival. As to why Totse classes you as a regular when you're not logged in, fuck knows. Few things around around here work quite as there supposed to, including the staff.

BTW, this should go in Help & Suggestions.

Theres a spam bot going mad in bad ideas.
