OMG guys.. you'd never believe. It appears they "banned" me from gradcafe altogether! I've been trying to log in and it keeps saying "you are banned" and at first I thought it was a system glitch. So then I log in from another laptop, and it looks like the site is running perfectly fine, but the thread (which I had created) is gone and so is my account! I have no clue what I did to deserve this jeez... really really confused. So I just created another ID and came back. SO WEIRD.
Regardless,,,, good luck to you all!!!
