Thread: New Members Posting on the Creative Boards

New members must now make ten valid posts on the site, preferably in offering comments or critiques to the work of others, before they may post their own work.

This measure has been taken as a result of forum flooding by some new members and others bumping their own work, when it's failed to receive comment, rather than try to earn feedback by commenting on the work of others.

The site works on the basis that people get back what they put into it and the best way to get feedback is to become active in the community and get known by other members.

This should be stickied so folks can find it. So I think I will.

Oh my, I was wondering why I couldn't post. Nice idea guys (: I will now do so.

When will I know if I can post or not?

You're already there, when the user title changes to "Apprentice".

mmm... it's says in the fiction section 'you may not post a new thread' ???

Try again now.

Cool, it's working thank you

I'm ready and willing to do my part and get "my" word out.

Hey Baron

Just stumbled by and thought I'd say hello. Should be getting off my butt and doing some more writing soon. Good idea, this posting criterion.

Cheers
