Private message noob question

[cgoff104]

This helps - was having the same issue!

Thank you, I still cannot do PM after 7 comments.

 

[cwkenneth]

Yes this forum should have a sticky addressing this question.

 

[cwkenneth]

Does anyone know the exact amount of posts one needs to make?

 

[Hellajdm]

Finally found why I can’t PM people

 

[Hellajdm]

Is the post count 5 to DM?

 

[brainhouston]

Thanks, needed the answer for this as well.
Also, a bit of rant...
Whenever i see these min posts needed for PM on different forums, i don't get it, isn't it just making new member post bunch of useless post to get up the count?? seems really unnecessary...

 

[brainhouston]

also, curious, can other member PM me even tho i can't?

 

[brainhouston]

well, 6 posts and no PM option... so maybe 5 is not correct unless it has time constant involved...

Thanks!

 

[Melatonin]

Appreciate the context on this.

 

[PLG3PLY]

Anybody know the actual number required?

 

[Monet3333]

Maybe post count and certain days of being a member

Any updates on how many posts you need?

 

[Monet3333]

have 9 posts but no messaging enabled yet.

Maybe your reputation/Likes also matters.

FWIW, I read in another thread that the post count needed to PM is 5.

I’m a noob and also looking for this info. X2 more to go!
Thanks

Yea, looks like I need to post more even though I've been a member since 2018... sigh

 

[wootness]

Still can't with 10 messages... just fyi
