Just respond to their post or thread and ask your question or make your comment there.

Easy peasy.

You are still 5 posts short from being able to send a PM. If it is something important, do what @BassTrackerBoats said in the post above.

uve been a member here 6 and a half yrs but, all your 10 posts
are from today, bhw has always had a 15 posts to pm rule.
15 posts in 6 and a half yrs is no biggy, but you kinda only started
posting anything today .

crap now I need to figure out where to post and what to say 15 times I'm too dumb for this

Exactly my thoughts.. Well, I guess it's time to actively participate!

This thread is really helpful.

Imagine that I had to search on Google before finding out what has made it quite impossible for me to start a conversation with other members.

Now, I know what to do.

Sure I can help - read above, there just helped ya!

lmao that was funny

 

[foodog]

I'm new to BHW but definitely now new to the forums, so I was a bit frustrated that I did not know how to find/use PM feature ... until I found this info.
Feeling better already. Thanks!

 

[Robert DAmico]

That's what I was looking.

Okay, probably a dumb question, but how can you tell how many posts you've done?

In the top block that has your name and status, under the joined date is a field called messages. Does messages = posts?

Who do I contact if I have 15 posts but I still can't Pm? I wanted to respond to a job ad but it said I can't let me show you. I took a screenshot to see f there is something I'm doing wrong I don't want to violate any rules. Thanks in advance!

I'm actually wondering the same thing lol...
Pretty sure I'm at that "15 post" limit but I still can't pm for some reason
Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Once you hit the 15 posts, it might take few hours before the limitation gets unlocked for your account.

Is starting a thread also 15? Still learning because the restrictions are not clear

Starting a new thread count toward your total number of posts as well. More information about section restrictions: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/a-list-of-sections-with-restrictions.1051614/
