Question about posting privileges
Question about posting privileges
Hello Mods,
Not sure if this is where I should post this, but here goes.
I have been trying to post a picture of a part I am in need of. Being new, every time I have tried to post a link, or even an img tag to post the photo, I get a message that says my post is too spammy for a new user. I understand what you guys are doing, as I am a 9 year member over at fiero.nl, however what do I need to do to be able to get the privilege of posting photos? At some point I want to post photos of my car, but as it is right now, I can not even put a photo on photobucket and have it show up on the forum.
Thanks for reading this and for having this great resource!
Mark

Re: Question about posting privileges
probably just a few more post in general on the board before you become 'trusted' as not-spam...
just describe the part as best you can, some members are really good and may post a pic of what you are describing to double check.

4th one's a charm, 5th one is, beginnning to sound like this is an addiction...

I believe you need to have 5 posts before you can put up pictures. I'm not 100% sure though.

Re: Question about posting privileges
OK, that explains it. I have more than 5 posts, but have only been a member for 4 days. So tomorrow I should be good to go.

Re: Question about posting privileges
I'm new to the board. It seems when I try to post, I am getting kicked out and sent back to the login page. I realize I need 5 posts, but is it normal to be re-directed to the login page?

Re: Question about posting privileges
This sounds like security issues on your local PC... Your browser is not saving your cookies properly or for long enough and it’s logging you out. I check off the login automatically so I don't get logged out, and I also don't sit idle in a reply box or on a new topic box for too long since they do time out. If you’re typing a really long message my suggestion is to copy the whole txt box and refresh the screen and re-paste it before clicking submit to ensure you don't lose what you wrote.
I just did a lengthy post without having "automatically log me in" checked off and I did not get booted when I clicked submit so this is why I always say it’s the end users PC timing out or dropping the credentials somewhere.
