why post 5 times for PM

[HeatherR531]

Thanks for asking this, I was wondering the same thing and trying to get to 6 so I can reply to a PM!

You have 6 posts...you can PM now!

FSOT posts do not count.

Same here- should maybe need to 6 posts before being able to FSOT. I have private messages I can't resoond to!

I understand the reason behind the posting minimum, but not sure why FSOT posts don't count? I've already made a purchase, and posted lots in FSOT, but had to write this to get my 6th and (woohoo) now I can PM

Yes, all the posting is a bit annoying but I guess if it safeguards us and the site from malware/SPAM it's okay.

it is annoying but I guess it kind of makes sense

I was thought this was silly also, but makes sense now. I def dont want spam PMs!!

[LinnyLou02]

Now this makes sense...I thought it was some crazy, pointless rule, but no spam is good!
