Hi
A friend of mine has joined oople but can't post or comment and he wants to buy off the traders forum. He has registered and logged in but can't do anything. Can the administrators help his username is Bolts. Thanks

Hi

Is he trying to reply to threads in the For Sale section? If so, that is the problem as you can't.

He's trying to send a private message to purchase a rc car but won't let him do anything.

there may be a minimum post count or account age before you can send pm's

He joined on Boxing Day ? My son joined a few months ago and he has the same problem ?

[AfroP]

are they're post counts under 10 or 20 posts?

There should be no restrictions on them that aren't on you.
There is no minimum post count needed for the trade section, but no replay are allowed in the for sale section.
Post their usernames and I'll have a look at their settings when I can get to a laptop.

Username is 'bolts' and I will get the other one later for you thanks

The other username is 'Riceman128' that's having problems posting

[Riceman128]

Just checked up on it and it's now working

[Col]

Obviously Riceman is working fine

Can't find anyone with the username "bolts" though

Hi Col,

I Couldn't find a suitable section to post in, so I've hijacked this one!

A friend is having the same issue, he's registered but is having issue's (says his account is locked??) If you could have a look please, his username is 'hydrakermit7'

Thanks

His situation is the same as the other one: his hasn't followed the directions to confirm his email address in the email that was sent. The email is automatically generated by vBulletin when you sign up and as far as I'm aware it can't be resent, so check spam folders and old mail.
