Registered, but Can't Post?

[KukriKhan]

I've received PM's from new registerees about problems they have in posting.

Most often, the problem is that they have not yet fully activated their accounts by clicking the link in our confirmation email.

If that describes YOUR situation, do this:

1) Go to the email account you used to register with us, and look for an email with the subject:
"Action Required to Activate Guild Membership"
2) Check not only your inbox, but also any folders called: Bulk, Junk, Spam, Trash, etc. Web-based email accounts like Hotmail, Lycos, Yahoo often send our emails to those folders.
3) Click the link inside that email; that will confirm your email and activate your membership. Then you can post.

If all of that fails, email me at jim@jimcee.com (put "TW" in the subject, so I don't mistake you for spam), and we'll sort things out that way.

Cheers. And welcome to the .Org!

Until further notice, please send a Private Message to Ser Clegane should you encounter any problems activating your account (instead to the e-mail address mentioned above)

I've sent email with such a request and still got no reply. The problem is that I've activated my account, but can't post in most threads. Please help.

Welcome to the Org, Avanti. I don't think you are experiencing an error: junior members cannot post in most forums except the guides and the Entrance Hall. This is to let them become used to the atmosphere here and to keep spammers, flamers, trolls and other internet-nuissances out. The system is a bit restrictive but if you post a few times in a friendly and helpfull manner, you will be a full member soon enough.

For more information, see the Guild FAQ.

Hi. Welcome to the forum.

If you look under your screen name, you will notice it says Junior Member. Right now you can just post in the New Member forums. You have to wait until one of the admins makes you a member. As you can see, I'm still waiting, too.

[WhiteProphecy]

ok, thankyou.

[WhiteProphecy]

how many post you think it takes to become a regular member

[Haudegen]

(Voice of Carthaginian general): ... as if numbers mattered.

Sorry couldn´t resist.

Honestly, the faq says that you have to be around for some weeks and show the mods that you fit in here. The quantity of posts is one of the least important things in this.

[WhiteProphecy]

o, ok lol

[Upxl]

Great,

Understand all this completely.
You lads have a great atmosphere here by the way.

But really want to ask something, and I don’t want to post it where it doesn’t belong.

So I have to wait a couple of weeks before I can ask you guys anything?

I WANNA KNOW NOW

hmmm, can't I bribe some admins ore something?

cheers

Unles it relates to politics or is forbidden by the forum rules you can ask anything here. Often an old member will come by and answer questions of new patrons. If it really doesn't belong here, a moderator will move it (and any related post you may afterwards type) to the appropriate forum.

Hiya Upxl:
Why not just post it here? Put an identifier on it-- RTW, or MTW, or STW so folks will know what it pertains to-- and then shoot a new thread out. People are very responsive here, even in the new forums. Also, I think interaction in here will make it easier for people to make a decisions on whether to give you the keys to the forum or not.

[Upxl]

People are very responsive here

I noticed.
I’ve putted the treat in the entrance hall.
And almost immediately got a answer.

Tnx lads.

Hello! I recently registered so I could make some comments on the mod I've using (medmod). However, it doesn't seem I'm allowed to post replies in any topic in the MTW Modification section. I've checked around to see if I'm missing something, but don't see what my problem is. Anyone have a possible solution?

[m52nickerson]

It is because you are a junor member yet. Post your question in this forum and someone will help you out.

[Microwavegerbil]

Oh dear I shouldn't make my first posts be quite so late at night, because they'll all turn out as dumb as that one. Didn't read the FAQ quite well enough, thanks.

[bogeys18]

OK, so I can post here and I'll keep participating in this Hall until I get upgraded. Couldn't be more fair, I'd rather keep out flamers and show that I belong. Thanks guys.

[Upxl]

Just noticed that I recently got promoted to a full and complete member of the almighty guild.

I would like to thank; My mom and dad fore their continuing support.
My family and friends fore all the hour's they helped me in my darker moments.

And last but certainly not least: My cat Gizmo, how stood by my side during those difficult nights of hard grammar spelling and theological discussions(witch could explain my miserable grammar).

Thank you, thank you, and oh yes,... thank you.

All well and good but it only works sometimes

[Duke Eugen]

Great I made the members list! Now maybe I can post yesterday 3 times I tried to post to new members but no go! To lose 3 pages of text for a disabled person who types 1 letter at a time with a rubber tipped pencil it Bites!
After all it's time I could have spent playing MTW right?
But onward and upward!!

Three pages? How long did that take? If you are not active (that is: don't load new pages) for a period of 15 minutes or so the forum automaticaly logs you out. Perhaps that is what happened?

Welcome to the Org, BTW.

Hi there,

I still can't post in most threads and I did follow every single link in the activation email.

Anyway, I just wanted to let the community know that in order to solve the recurrent CTDs caused by Nvidia drivers you should install the 5.3.0.3 version (that can be found here: http://www.pny.com).

Can anyone post this in this thread?

Thanks

The above link won't work because of the )

Follow this one: http://www.pny.com

And how can I edit a post?

[Duke Eugen]

I'am glad I'am not the only one who can't get this site to post properly.
Posting to this site is like hitting your head against brickwall over&over!

Welcome to the Org, elbasto.

I have posted your message in the thread you linked to. The problems you are experiencing are because you are a junior member. Junior members can post only in a few forums and cannot edit. The system is a bit restrictive, but it keeps out spammers, trolls, flamers and assorted nuisances of the internet. If you post a few times in a friendly and helpful manner you will be a full member soon enough.

You can find more information in the Guild FAQ.
