Screw-ups I Have Seen (or, errors I've noticed on this board)

1) Clicking "Contact Us" at the bottom of the page gives me a 404 error.
2) As an unregistered user, the board says "You can reply to posts" However, uppon entering your text and clicking "Submit", one finds that youir message was not accepted because you did not enter a username. Oddly enough, it provides you with not way to enter a username. So, if you guys don't want unregistered users to be able to post replys, then have the system say so and if you actualy do want unregistered users to be able to post replys, then provide some place for them to enter a username (either that or assign them one based on the fact that they are unregistered)
3) Am I the only one who noticed this stuff?

This seems to be fixed now, I get sent to compose an email.

Unregistered users can post in the Got News section. So technically they can post unregistered, but to post on any other board you have to register. I hope this clears up a few things, if not post back.
