Private Messaging?

[alanmz]

I've had my account for around a month

[alanmz]

I've been around the forum for more that a year but never thought on creating an account as I was using it for research and DIY

[alanmz]

This is my 6th post. Still disabled

[alanmz]

Would it be reaching the posts count and then wait the 7 days? or 7 days account creation and posts count reached at any time later?

[alanmz]

I guess I'll figure out. 8th

[alanmz]

Seriously, I'm sorry for the spam. I hope to be able to provide a more detailed solution.

[alanmz]

This is 10th

[alanmz]

My statistics says Total Posts: 1, but on the search throws the 10 posts I've made so far. I'll check back in 7 days.

I'm a member of another vehicle forum, and their rules are that new users can't even see that there is a forum classified section until they have made 50 posts and checked in at least once per week for 90 days.....

I've been using the site for more than a year, ever since I owned my car, apr 2023. I don't have enough experience with BMW to provide useful insights in here, more than others that I have found very useful.

If you don't like new users asking for help or anything, go ahead and start your own forum, and ask for peoples ID's, birth certificates, credentials and shop adressses if you want.

If you just want to bully people for something you don't like. I don't think this is the place.

Obviously you don't know how to read.

If I was a software pirate or a scammer I wouldn't be using my name on my profile. I would use something like... I don't know... vreihen16???

You need to post in the general automotive BMW or non-BMW talk photos/videos for your post count to add up. Posting in the off topic section of the forum, and/or on here does not make your post count go up.

If you`re not a spammer/bot make a new topic/thread in the general automotive BMW or non-BMW section of the forum so you can respond in that thread. Your post count will go up and then after a certain amount of posts you will have your PM privileges activated.

[alanmz]

I see. I'm gonna give it a try. I appreciate your response. Thanks!

Also, what banner is people talking about?

It's an old post, but I'm just wandering I was told it is just a matter of waiting 7 days but I am passed the 7 day mark does anyone know if it is a post and time thing or just a time thing?
