    Because the forum has been Spammed to death in the past so it set this
    requirement up to help minimize the SPAM.


    Then you should ask a Warrior that has met the requirements to Help you
    to do so. Most Warriors are here to help people when they can.


    Don't just post to meet your needs. Post to help others if you can.

    You don't want to be included in the Spammer category because your
    account here will be Banned very quickly.

    Be someone that adds to the community. You can also ask legitimate need
    to know questions you may have.


    Hope that Helps,
    Have a Great Day!

    BTW addig 50 posts takes upwards of 25 minutes, IF YOU SPAM! And posts made by spamming that are removed reduce the count. MAYBE that might remove PMs.

    I also thought 50 posts was a bit too much, but by contributing in the forum you also get to learn new things i would presume and this is helpful more than just registering and sending a PM once in a while. Its good to interact

          LOL...Sumit, I did have a post above yours but when I reread it confused
          me too so I removed it. :confused:

          Plus it made your post after my deleted post look soooo much funner.

          ~MM~

          Yep Kim...really was one of the best ones. 'To Serve Man'

          I loved that show too....kind of miss Rod Serling.


          Comedians are still doing impressions of the William Shatner episode...where he's the only one that see's the gremlin on the wing of the plane, tearing it up....'Nightmare at 20000 Feet'


          Shatner really got to ham it up, as only he can...
