    Hi, I have been a member of Digital Point for a while, and I tried to post a new thread in the market place forum, but it won't allow me to.

    Could somebody tell me why I can't post a new thread in the marketplace forum, I was looking to hold a logo design contest.

    Somebody help please? :confused:

    Hi, thanks for your prompt reply.

    Please pardon me, I've read through it, and still don't quite understand.
    Are you precisely referring to the following clause:

    # You must have been a member for 7 days, not have an overall red reputation and have 10 total posts to post in the Website Review forum.
    It can take up to an hour for your new permissions to be active.

    # You must have been a member for 14 days, not have an overall red reputation and have 25 total posts to post in the Buy, Sell or Trade forum (which includes link exchanges) or the Politics & Religion forum.
    It can take up to an hour for your new permissions to be active.

    Which means I have to actively participate in the Website Review forum, i.e. do 10 posts and also do 25 posts in the Buy/sell/trade forum and eventually I'll be allowed to create a new thread in the marketplace forum?

    Make sure you are not posting just to post. We issue infractions for posts made to pad a member's post count.
