I tried to open a thread in the Services subforum, but it turns out I can't. It states that in order to be able to open threads in certain subforums, I would have to get 3 likes from 3 different established users. My online experience tells me that this is very hard to accomplish and would take at least a couple of months. Almost no one bothers to dislike or like forum posts which are formatted like this. This is not something that is on people's minds. Could I donate a small donation to the site instead? How do I contact people in charge about this?
I honestly can't agree that it's hard to accomplish the three likes. That happened very quickly for me. Honestly, all you need to do is post some comments that the other members find valuable to their needs. If you have the online experience you hint at you certainly ought to be able to do that.
