Yes but only members with a high number of posts under them can access it.
And, I don't know the situation, are there a lot of activity in it?

I ask this because an important part of activity into public forums is created by newbies. Personaly I frequently view senior members I have never seen before and I ask myself: "he was in hollidays/had a lot of work or he was here very often but only on the addict forum?"

Don't worry for me, it's only personals interogations
