Issue resolved.
This forum used to be for news only so had locked down permissions - I am going to keep this particular forum that way so we can use it to get feedback on new features, post job requests etc.
But - I moved the other forum out to the main index:
http://www.planetside-universe.com/f...splay.php?f=11
That one should be used for all site feedback if it's not covered by a thread here. And everyone should now be able to post in it without issue.
