Hey everyone. This looks like a busy forum. Looking forward to joining in.

I keep getting this error:
Sorry, to send private messages to other members, you must have a minimum of 5 posts.

I already have 5 posts! What am I doing wrong?

Please read our rules more closely.

# Private Messages

You must make at least 5 posts before you may create new messages, or reply to any messages you receive. This is to reduce the amount of PM spam.

User statuses are updated hourly, so once you gain your 5 posts you will probably have to wait a little while.

Welcome to WT, patcar. Enjoy your stay.

The updates on privileges can take awhile, and you probably are able to send those PMs now. Let us know if you can't.

Dave

patcar, welcome to WT -- glad to have you here. As DaveMo~ indicated, the process which enables your PM abilities after you reach 5 posts only runs about once an hour -- so after you reach 5 posts, give it some time and you'll find it will be enabled.

That aside, welcome to the WT community -- I'll be looking for your posts....
