I wanted to PM someone regarding an item for sale, but got blocked because I haven't made three forum posts.

Some forums have a "test" area where you can try out posting pictures, etc - or make a qualifying number of posts.

Just an idea.


Anyway, now I've done one post of the three. Now I have to think of two worthwhile posts to make, that don't constitute the spam that the block is supposed to prevent!

I'm more than happy for "Off Topic" to be used for any trial posts

The three posts requirement is there to help prevent spamming users having access to the PM system immediately after registering.
