uWorld forums - why don't my posts show up?

I'm registered with the forums for the uWorld virtual world, and I can sign in and make a post, and it appears to work except for one small problem: the posts don't show up in the forum index.

It's hard to deal with a website in a language you can't read, and which if you are using a translated version, doesn't work because you can't be signed in on the translated version.

The url for the uWorld forums is http://bbs.uworld3d.com/mvnforum/mvnforum/index .

How to fill in the Meet-Me registration form?

Google translate the registration form below  for the Meet-Me virtual world as :
Please enter your personal information. (※: Required)
※ meet me ID -
'_','-', 3 to 15 alphanumeric characters. Turns is only the beginning.
※ password
Only alphanumeric characters, 6 to 20 characters
※ password
(Check)
※ Name Last Name Name (Kanji)
※ Name Last Name Name (Cana)
※ Sex Male Female
※ date of birth date
※ mail address
※ ZIP code --
State ※

I don't know what to put for the Name Last Name Name Kanji and the the Name Last Name Name Cana.

I also don't know what to put for zip code and state - this is from a Japanese company, there is no country asked for, so they must be looking for Japanese address answers.
?
I want to see the Meet-Me world.  Can you help?

Google Advanced Search changes for the worse

Google has messed up their advanced search function, hiding some of the fields that I use in searching  quite frequently.

Why dumb down the advanced search?  Is this a bad attempt at popularizing something not likely to be popular no matter what you do,  like Advanced Linear Algebra For Dummies?

What search engines offer good advanced search capabilities?

Google, maybe you've run out of good ideas if your idea of improving things is rearranging things and making them harder to get to and where you won't know what you are missing because you include stuff in the term "more".

If you want to attract "advanced searchers", give us boolean logic like the old Alta Vista and Hotspot sites had back in the day.
