The "around the grinder" subforum is limited to those with knife maker memberships.

Other membership levels can post in the Shop Talk forum.

May want to revise the wording to avoid confusion

Tell Spark.

Yeah, it clearly says basic member
Who's Spark and don't the staff have mechanisms for sharing information among yourselves?

 

[jlauffer]

Spark

I almost made this same thread the other day but used the search and found it has been addressed not that long ago. That sub forum is for knife makers according to Spark, though it is confusing because some paying members who aren’t knife makers are able to post in it while others aren’t. That, and the text cited above indicating basic and up can post.

Spark is the owner and administrator of BladeForums. The "Staff" are super moderators.
> As the Admin, Spark can reach into the forum software and make changes to the forum headers. He can also add and delete forums. And as owner, Spark handles all financial questions.
> The super mods cannot make such changes. We have the ability to move posts around, give warnings for rules infractions, and ban members who have become problematic.

The forum header description is wrong.

Around the grinder is KnifeMaker only

Spark is the only one who can fix the header to the forum.
