Hey I apologize if this has already been asked before, though I couldn't find anything recently. I created this account on here a while ago, but I still can't view any places like the advanced tutorials that say membership is required. Is there something I need to do to see those areas?

Nope, logged out and logged in and it still says "You are not authorized to view this resource" and most things. Also, is there an index for the hotspots? I click on the hotspots section and all I see are a couple places in Denver. Can I see other places as well?

Specifically what are you trying to access, there are a couple sections just for the admins (full tutorials)
And yes, our hotspots section is rather weak, but more content will be coming soon! For now check out the locals only forum to meet up with people in your area to show you the good spots near you.
