kind of confusing...

Thanks for your erply. I thought that my membership had expired and so I have renewd it for 3 years. Do I have to do anything else?

Lots of members had written lots of post in the past. Are they all gone with this new format?

Thanks

Do I have to do anything else?

Yes. To change your designation in your posts from "Guest" to "TUG Member", you must follow the instructions near the end of the message that Makai Guy linked.

thanks, I am a member again...

My name shows up with qualification that I am a member again. Thanks. But what happened to all the previous posts ? and what about the past two years of being a member, it does not show up.

Thanks again.

All of your previous posts still exist and they reflect your TUG Member status. The date shown is the date you registered for the new BBS: "BBS Reg. Date: Jun 6, 05".

Original TUG membership dates are not shown with this software and it's not practical at this time to add that feature.
