Hi there,

I do not know if this is the correct section to post this question, but I am trying to get an answer since it is sort of a newbie question.

Can anyone help me? I cannot PM to other members as I just joined the forum.

What I need to do in order to PM other members

Thanks a lot.

Eddy
 


Make more posts and let your account age.

It's one of those things, not sure which. Keeps people from signing up and doing mass PM spam.

Thank you thehobbster for your reply. Are the forum owners or moderators able to activate me so that I can PM other members to inquire about their orders.

Cheers.
 
Yeah, 15 posts. It kinda sucks when someone PM'd you an important issue.
Still find this system better since it prevents the same person from harassing you through multiple accounts.

Just report em and don't delete the messages in your inbox :P

15 post without getting banned is a hard thing to do specially if you are really giving out quality post.. if you are spamming post you will be filtered out and only 20% of those spammers survive the first wave of filtering.

Out of that 20% if someone is harrasing you report em and Don't remove the messages on your inbox. Mod's will verify em and you'll get em banned asap :P
 
I too facing this problem.
We need to make 15 posts in order to send PM's.

I ordered couple of blogposts in "Sell, Buy & Trade"
After i order i couldn't send them messages.
So, I had to ask updates etc.. in threads only.

So, I am now making 15 posts to get my PM's to get activated.

This is quite cool tbh, thanks for telling me your life story.

Well to be frank, my post is as low quality as his, but o'well, I guess this applies as a great first post on the forum. :zzwhip:
 
I couldn't post at all for a bit, then I contacted the help and explained that I was getting some "You should upgrade your account in order to post" messages. It was weird.

After contacting help, it got fixed in a day or so. Maybe that'll help? Good luck.
 
yeahh...same here. I'm on my quest for 15 posts, almost there! it does suck that I can't reply to my private messages until I have the required posts, but it is not hard to find interesting threads to comment on! ;)
