Need Help With Enabling Private Messages


Hey, Nathan --

First of all, thanks for providing such a great site. I'm trying to enable receiving private messages, but can't find the appropriate control on either my User Profile or my User Options page.

Can you (or anyone else) help me out? Is this a limitation of my having only recently become a registered user?

Thanks,
Mark T.

Mark, you might need 20 posts before utilizing the PM option. This was put in place to keep spammers from registering, and flooding pm's. Click on Nathan's profile, and email him about it.

Re: Need Help With Enabling Private Messages


This is true, you need 20 posts before you can post a link or use our PM system. This is because we have had a lot of spammers come to this site and register just to send out junk.

You'll get there soon enough There are plenty of good threads to respond to.
