I've fixed both the Participants List & the Camp Wish-List. 

A check was added to make sure you're logged in before you add an entry to either list.  And you can't login if you didn't register and get approved with your real name.  I had to do this because some unscrupulous people hit the site and try to add SPAM or links to their sites to boost search engine ranking.  We shouldn't allow either of these.

For security purposes, I also changed the lists so you can't edit other people's entries.  IE: It doesn't make sense to let George edit Wanda's participant's list entry.

Mark:  this kind of request might be best served with an email newsletter, which you have access to via the ADMIN tab, or by "announcing" a new forum topic.  Both methods send an email to every registered user.  I doubt anyone but myself is monitoring this message board.

I thought about posting the link and used to do that with these kind of messages but I wanted to make sure that newer people that weren't as familiar with the site know where it is. I remember having to do some searching to find it when I first got on board. You gotta remember, you're into this stuff and know quickly how to get around. And you've been playin with the entire site for months and know where everything is. I use my computer every day for 'basic' email and web searching, but it doesn't take very much more than that to get me completely lost and clueless in the cyber world. Maybe I'm the only one but I just wanted to be sure in case there's another computer idiot out there scratchin and wonderin.

You'd be a doubting Mufassa. And be wrong.
