@WalnutGirl0303, you need to be a Junior Member in order to be able to Private Message another user. We've reintroduced this requirement as we have been dealing with a lot of spam PMs. In order to become a Junior Member you need 15 posts. Thanks!

You now need a minimum of 15 posts to be able to send a PM. The site was seeing an influx of new users ending unsolicited PMs, so this restriction was added.
Thanks for the 15 posts recommendation but I just completed my 16th and I am still unable to private message? I would have directly asked @CCadmin_Sorin but I was not able to PM! Thanks!
@VerlisB, can you please confirm this is still an issue? I've checked in the backend and you should be able to PM now that you are a Junior Member. Thanks!
Would be helpful if you announced the 15 posts thing somewhere. Been trying to figure out why I couldn't post for half an hour. OK that's 2. 13 more to go. Jeesh.
@CCadmin_Sorin I typed a private message and forgot to type in who it was to be sent to. When I hit the post comment button it said "23 People"--I obviously don't want a PM to go to 23 random people. Any thoughts on why this happened? And if it actually goes to anyone? I am unable to type in an addressee until after I type a message. Is that how it is suppose to work?

Is there a restriction on new posters in terms of using PM? I know there was for a long while...10 posts or something.
Is that back?
