Thumbs down Member for 15 years but I can't make a damn post

Rules are set for the masses but there are times when they should be discretionary. I've been a member on this message board for nearly 15 years and because for whatever reason now, I can't create a post except in the new members section... just plain stupid!

Because you haven't posted 10 posts. Same rules for everyone, princess

much to learn you still have my young Padawan.


Creating threads:
- You can reply to posts anywhere in on the forum, but you can only create threads in the New Member subforum until you have 10 counted posts AND 30 days as a member. Then the restriction is lifted. This helps cut down on spam and scam, as well as flaming you might get for asking a "newbie" question in some of the more critical and harsh subforum. Please don't spam the forum trying to get your post count though, just participate normally! 10 posts is easy enough, especially if you wander through the Multimedia subforum and comment on people's pictures or video.

Not a very good member if you've been here for 15 years but never bothered to contribute...

Is there a date check on that? It wasn't a rule when I first joined. I did create a thread in S.E. section not long after I joined. I did make 4 additional posts to other threads.

the rule definitely came about after you and I joined.
we got hit with a ton of spammers years ago which required the rule.

couple more posts and you should be good to go.

That rule wasn't a rule when I joined... I guess you contributed to its conception...

I don't know where your sense of seniority comes from, but if you can stop it, I think it can help with your interaction with other members here. Loki and NAP are both very helpful guys around here.

Anyways, welcome (back).
