A Forum Oddity
I am getting a message I lack the permission to view "The Other Stuff" but am able to browse RP, EBG, etc fine. Not sure if this points to a real issue or just my lack of access to the secret cool kids OO forum, but here you go:
Edit: it looks like I get the same permissions message on each major forum group (Gaming, Community and The Other Stuff)

That is rather strange.
Hopefully we won't have to nuke you from orbit.

Huh. I get that too if I click on the main header for the section.

Re: A Forum Oddity
I use prosilver, and when I click on the section heading, it actually gives me all the subforums - and then underneath it gives me the "you don't have permission" message. I just tried it in Black Pearl, and I'm getting the same view as Enough.

Re: A Forum Oddity
I'm guessing (don't really remember) that the mods forum is in the 'Other Stuff' section, and clicking on it directly tries to show it to you.

Re: A Forum Oddity
It is that way for all the forum "groups" because you can't post in them only the forums they contain.
I see the same thing and I can see all the cool kid forums.
The super secret forum is in the Community section, BTW. Or so I have heard.
I'm left believing this is WAD.

Re: A Forum Oddity
I see now. "The Other Stuff" is a forum itself, which contains the various subforums nested within it, but has posting turned off. When you click "The Other Stuff" you are attempting to go into that forum directly.
I always thought that those (The Other Stuff, Gaming) were just headings/titles.
