Should New Members reach a certain amount to be able to send threads???
I didnt Find anything about this subject.

It might be 25 posts. A number of years ago we had issues with bots creating accounts and instantly start creating spam/advertisement threads from the moment of registration, so we put in a setting where a member had to have a minimum number of posts before creating threads of their own.

I don't think there is a minimum post requirement. Did you try to create a new thread ?

You would preview your written post by clicking "go advance" in the lower right corner. On that page scroll down a little to find manage attachments which you will click to bring up a pop up window. Click "add files" and then "browse" your files to find the photo. Then click "upload" after which you click "done" to close said window. You can now preview your post and picture before you submit your reply. Easy!

hey I'm new, and I've used a lot of message boards before so I'm not new to this. But when I tried replying to a thread, my posts show up and then are just deleted or gone? Just wondering why? thanks.

It all depends on what you said. Crass, pointless or idiotic posts can and will be moderated at the Staff's discretion.

I recommend you do some reading before posting further:

Hi- I've been trying to post some photos and for some reason they are not posting. I've posted photos in the past, the last one that posted was July 18 in the USS Salem to reopen thread. I've disabled my adblocker and NoScript for this site even though they've caused me no problems before. When I use the insert image and basic uploader it shows request sent to World Affairs Board, waiting for reply- then nothing. Anything I'm missing?

let me try



No problem

Thanks!

Don, I don't think it's anything that you're doing wrong. I'm going to send a message to Rochen and see if they can shed some light on the problem.
