 * i tried to launch a competition only to find people could not enter because when
   they tried to leave a message in the message box below my post they got told “
   message box closed this post has timed out” or something like that. I have no
   clue why or how to fix it? should i just look for a message box plug in?

 * after talking to mr frumph we came to the conclusion that the problem is being
   caused by me having s2member on my site. so now i have the problem of how to 
   get round that because if i take s2member off i loose all my members don’t I?
