Restrictions are in place because people who are only here to shop have a tendency to misuse the forum. @tunwej12 above is an example of it. In addition to trophy points, it appears there's a minimum post count too that you need to cross before PMs get unlocked - since your posts aren't moderated anymore, I assume you've crossed that threshold. If not, keep posting till you cross it.
Sure, and I think its a good thing too! But then you can't keep the people who've crossed the limit on hold for sucha a long time bro. Even after seeing their complaints. That's what was annoying.
Anywho all working now!
@Crazy_Eddy - Can't you tell exactly how much message count is needed to unlock pm?
Its hard to do deals as i can't sent pm or Reply to any Pm's i got
And people don't like to do negotiations in open you know ;(
There is no restriction in sending PM for new or old members. The only reason I can think of that some of you are not able to send PMs is that your personal details are blacklisted in the global spam database.
