Can’t post

stevetay3815 · Jun 10, 2023

When I try to post, a pop up says “I don’t have enough (I can’t remember the word) but it’s like credits or something“. I was able to post a couple days ago, but not this morning.

I'm a bit confused here. You just created a new thread but you say that you are unable to post anything???

What thread or sub forum did this happen in?
It's happened to me a couple of times and I'm a moderator! It turned out that the thread I was trying post in had been moved (by me - oops!) to a certain type of sub form that can't be posted to. Yes, I was and still am confused how it happened, but after I moved the thread to the right place everything was fine.

You do need to be signed in to your account, to post.

Where did you try to post your question when it went wrong?

Yes, thanks. I think that's the reason. I (finally) took the time to REALLY look at it. As the person ahead of you said..."if you can't post, how did you post this?" I try to do better next time. But here's another question: I'd like to reply to a non-relyable post. Is there any way to contact the person who posted it?

Start a private conversation with the person. You can do that by finding one of their posts and clicking on their avatar then the "start conversation" button. Or by clicking on the blue envelope icon at the top of the forum pages and entering their forum name.

Can you tell us what this non-replyable post is? If it's been put in the wrong place we would like to know.
