I have a new recruit that wants to join this site. I told her I would pay for her membership. I have tried paying by Pay Pal and by credit card, but every time it tells me that my time has expired and I have to enter all my info again. No matter how fast I type it, it says this. Anyone else have this trouble? :confused:
 
Maybe e-mail admin greg or PM him and see if he can help you with this!
 
Definately let Greg know...
 
Are you blocking cookies? I block cookies and had a problem like that until I allowed the cookie to be set. :)
 
Also refresh your web page. I had a similiar problem and a friend told me to do that and it worked.

That sounds like a diet to me! "I am blocking cookies right now so maybe we should eat in!"

Ok, it was a cookie problem. I paid for her now I don't know what to do. I didn't see on there where I was supposed to enter any of her info. I'm afraid I may have just made a $5 donation for nothing!! I probably should have just gave her $5 and let her sign up herself!!
