New Registered Member Limitations

[Vlad]

As of today, newly registered members are limited from posting new threads of their own and editing their own profiles. You may still post in the countless existing discussions, just not create new threads.

After posting 5 posts in existing discussion threads and being registered for 5 or more days, your account will then be automatically upgraded (every hour on the 20min mark) and then you can post new discussion threads of your own.

Unfortunately this limit was necessary due to prior abuse by spammers and a lot of newcomers posting in the wrong sections. Thanks for your understanding.

Hi,

I've been registered since 2017, and my account is limited. Is that a mistake or is it actually just if you've posted under 5 times?
*This makes my 5th post.

Your account should automatically upgrade within the hour!

Hi, I am not sure why I got the same message. I created my new/current profile last summer and have over a 100 posts.

The usergroup promotions run every hour at the 20min mark. Just ran it manually, so you should be all set.

@Vlad are you able to restrict new members from adding links to their posts?

Afraid not. There may be a way to add the posts into a moderation queue tho.

Hello!
I was wondering if I can delete a reply I left on a thread? or make an edit to it?

You can report it for us to review, you have about an hour to edit a post.

Thanks for the instructions. I think that's fine with me.

@Vlad that may not be a bad idea (see two posts above mine)

Funny some chose to spam this thread lol
I’m sure the vendors/filters just can’t catch them all without us having a huge queue of members awaiting manual approval.
