The forum is set up so that you can't use the PM system until you have 30 posts under your belt.

I know it's a pain, but there is a good reason. It was done to stop people from joining just to spam our members with adverts or trolling PM's.

Here is a write-up about it with full details:  http://www.paranorma...showtopic=36552

Please note that the offer to use that thread to bump your post count to 30 is no longer in effect.  You will have to make 30 real posts in real threads.

good reasoning, but aggravating for those who like to lurk. makes me want to randomly post to threads, which defeats the whole purpose of the rule. JMHO.

Also, i have 160+ posts. so why can't i enter my messenger? i get the same reason, not allowed. extremely frustrating.

I just sent you a pm to see if you can get it, and if so if you can respond to it
