The system requires 10 posts and a period of time since registration before you can create threads (you can post in existing threads). This is an anti-spam measure.

If you pmail me a brief summary of your aviation experience so I know you're a pilot I'll promote your account out of the new user mode.

Oh i see
 

Thanks for your reply, I did not know that, I am a new hire first officer at a regional, also a flight instructor previously, instructed private, instrument and commercial students. 1800 total time. 300 Turbine. This is my second career. Previously a flight attendant.

Hi I’m having issues posting and making threads as well. I also am not allowed to send you a PM

Looks like you hit ten posts already, you should be fine now.

Yep, same issue with my account as well. I can post a reply to current thread, but I can't start a new thread.

Until you have 10 posts you cannot do it. It is an anti spam filter.

Got it....

Thanks.....

Sorry to bring back an old thread, but does that mean posting 10 replies (such as this one) then unlocks the ability to post a new thread?

Exactly right.
