I created a new character, Redwood Sequoyah. Membership level 2.

Redwood could not access to read any of the exhibition threads on the two boards other than the one I (Mangas) have. Posting, of course, is out of the question. Confirming Hapshepsut's earlier post in this thread. Redwood was told of the need to have level 5 or higher access to view anything on the two exhibition boards, upon any access attempt. (Redwood did not stop to check other boards.)

I (as Mangas) looked at the board setup variables. The board setup variables state anyone can access/read/all members can post.

Having threads off limits on posting is good in some threads; but having such limits tied into viewing ability will defeat the purpose in most threads.

I'm sure this is an inadvertant thing, since until I created Redwood, I was unaware of the situation.
