I joined this forum and gave my email address so I cannot post in any of the other forums except this one?

What's the point? Obviously this site is for "phishing" people's email addresses. NO THANK YOU!

Hello and Welcome,
Interesting first post. Did you read the post titles "NEW MEMBERS: READ THIS MESSAGE FIRST" ?

Welcome Ovation Enthusiast,

As a new member, this is the only place you can post. However, the rest of the site is still open to you to search and browse.

Most people come here to ask questions and introduce themselves. We have a Welcoming Committee who will do their best to answer your questions and point you to the information you are looking for.

Think of them as the Ovation FanClub Mai·tre d's who will greet you, offer to hang up your coat and hat, show you around, and find you a comfortable seat.

If you want to stick around, just let us know and you will be granted access to post in the other areas of the site as well.

Why do we do this you may ask? Well there is just so much information on the site that it has become difficult for new folks to find the information they are looking for. As 99% of the people that come to this site for the first time are just looking for information, we decided this would work better for everyone and at the same time by default, create a forum of the most popular first-time questions. If you don't have a question and just want to join in on the conversation, that's fine too. Just let us know.

We have a few basic rules here. You should have read them when you registered, but as most of us ignor those "read these first" and "do you agree" messages, please click this link to review the Terms of Use, User Agreement, Code of Conduct, Disclaimer, and other legal mumbo-jumbo that we wish we didn't have to post. Also we encourage everyone to review what has become known as the Ovation FanClub™ Manifesto

Again,
Welcome to the Largest Knowledge-base of Information about Ovation Guitars in the World.


Seriously Welcome !!!!

You are certainly not the first to not read the welcome message and you won't be the last so no harm no foul..

Why ban me? I asked a question and that's all. I belong to a lot of music forums and this is the ONLY one that has these crazy rules about posting in other sections of the forum after joining. Sorry if I stepped on your toes. I recently bought a used Celebrity CC57 and wanted to be a part of the Ovation Fan Club but I guess I was wrong...

Thanks for the "welcome"...All the best!

You're such a grouch Al. And your young Padawan Damon is learning well.

He'll make a good Jedi.

May the GAS be with you...
