also i thought with EF's new upgrade a while back there was talk about new members had to be MEMBERS for a certain period of time (a few months) before they were allowed to ask for advice?? it's cool we all want to help people and keep them safe. i just think a grace period of profile research would make me feel more at ease when giving a stranger advice. i'd like to know that THEY know something... i could have swore i talked to rick or traz about this. guess it was a no go??
