If Eliza has replied that means that technically everything has worked. Solve a few captchas (as you probably already did) and wait, after a while on the FMS web interfact your identity should say 'Yes' in the announced column, that means that at least one person whose trust list trust you trust trusts you. To put simply WoT works like this: You can trust people if you trust that they will not send you spam messages. You can trust people's trust lists (trust list trust) if you believe that they will mark down spammers, but will not mark down those who you don't consider spammers. There's really no way to make the system simpler, and personally i don't like it (but that's another story). Trust some well established identities' trust list trusts, and pretty soon you should see messages coming through in FMS, then hopefully you will start figuring things out. And remember Freenet is a high latency network, don't expect to get replies (or even see your own messages appear) instantaneously. give everything time. -- http://freedom.libsyn.com/ Echo of Freedom, Radical Podcast http://eng.anarchopedia.org/ Anarchopedia, A Free Knowledge Portal http://freenetproject.org/ The Free Network project "None of us are free until all of us are free." ~ Mihail Bakunin
