    I noticed that I can only send a single PM then I need to wait a couple of hours if I wish to send another one. Is this normal because usually the limit is a couple of minutes maximum at other sites.

    Also as a precaution I PMed one of the moderators about me being on a shared network as instructed in the rules, however should I expect a confirmation as I did not receive any.

    I found this out too. As you make more posts and be a member for longer, I think the time you have to wait goes down. I had to wait 2 hours I think, when I first joined, now I think I only have to wait about 2 minutes.

    Alright then maybe I need to wait a little before I can start to use this forum properly.

    Anyways, since I did not receive a reply from any moderator yet I will mention it again here that I am on a shared network.

    PM me the IDs of others on your shared network.

    Members using a shared network must take care to not post in other's thread who share the network, trade rep or itrader, or do anything to make us believe you and someone else are one in the same.

    Its a WAN and I am not the network administrator so there is no way for me to tell if anyone else is getting here.

    Why don't you scan your database and let me know the IDs and I will avoid posting or giving rep etc.

    Because that is an awkward way and takes up valuable time. Ask the others on your network if they use Digital Point yourselves, it's not hard. :)

    Like I said, I am not the network administrator so I don't even know how many other peoples are using the network. I don't believe thou I'll be giving any rep or iTrader to anyone else in the network. Chances are negligible!

    Okay then but be wary, if you do give rep or iTrader to someone else on your network then you'll most likely be banned as a duplicate account.
