Why Can't I post on SYW? [answer: 50 posts are required]

FrederickS · Aug 29, 2011

It says the either my ccount was disabled or restricted by the administrator.

FabricatedParadise · Aug 29, 2011

You have to have 50 posts before you're allowed to post there.

Dude.

That question is answered in the PM every new member receives, it's got its own sticky in the main SYW area, and there's an FAQ about it, too.

Reading your screen really will help you, here. I promise.

My apologies. New to all this and didn't even know how to view private messages until recently. Thanks for the help.

That's cook Frederick. I was new once. I think.

Word of advice? No racing to 50 posts with meaningless one-liners, okay? The occasional post like that is fine, but it's not fine if they're all like that.

While you work on the 50 posts, you might read the exquisite FAQ on the process:

Did I mention that it was exquisite?

And that it crosses genre boundaries and is, like, edgy?

I read them just for the fun of it.

BenPanced · Aug 31, 2011

I read them 'cause all the kewl kidz are doing it.

Deleted member 42 · Aug 31, 2011

Some of them are dirty.

I saw how you did that, Mr. alleycat.

Well played, sir. I might forget past indiscretions.

Every time somebody reads the stickies, an angel gets its wings.

Every time you read and FAQ, Medi gets a little warm glow in the heart area and is allowed a snifter of mead.

So, read the FAQs. Not for the children, but for Medi.

I have a funny reply to that.

But I think I'll keep it to myself.

You're on the Good List.

Read them NOW because the test you have to take later is a beeotch.*

*just kidding. maybe.

Cyia · Sep 1, 2011

We have a FAQ?

*ducks Medi's flamethrower* (She has one, you know.

)

FabricatedParadise · Sep 1, 2011

I'm about to give an angel some wings and medi some mead.

Maryn · Sep 1, 2011

Excellent. Maybe this once Medi will pour for us all.

Maryn, whose son makes mead

Reading FAQs will make you more attractive to your preferred gender(s).

I like reading FAQ's. Maybe I'm weird, but I head for them every time I join a site. And, luckily, this one is well written. (Yes, I'm sucking up.)

I lurk for about a month, read a bunch of FAQ's, etc... and old threads, then I join. So, in reality, I've been here since October 2010.

amyashley · Sep 1, 2011

If I read the FAQ's nao, do I get rep points?

Mead?

A KITTEN?

*pouts*

*sigh* Here's another post toward the"50" requirement before I can actually create a thread in the SYW forum. 40 more to go

Hey, you're getting involved. Communicating with new people and you've already seen that you aren't alone in your quest for publication.

Thank you for getting involved, instead of just trying to run up a post count, giving and not just hoping to take.

Way to go!

(And now, you have an excuse to post up a "you're welcome" and add one more.
