Hello dear forum members!
I have a question for the community:
The new users of this forum are not allowed to PM other users until a status is assigned or something similar?

I wanted to PM someone and an error appeared not allowing me to create new PM.
Tried to find the guidelines or the rules to follow or something to read on this matter but i couldn`t find.
Thanks in advance for your help,

Hello and welcome to our forum.
Newly registered members have some limitations: PM isn't accessible and all new posts and topics are pre-moderated. Once you have at least 1 approved post, all limits are lifted. This is to fend off spammers as there are quite a lot of them and we don't want to overcomplicate CAPTCHA or make some mind-bending questions that need to be answered before registration.
Thank you for your understanding.

Excellent. Seems quite good and reasonable this rule. Thanks for attention and for the warm welcome.
