Title: Not able to post anywhere EXCEPT the customer support area
Post by: Baraka on May 03, 2013, 02:37 am
I just signed up with my Tormail address after that service started working again. I haven't received any sort of e-mail verification message yet. Because of this or some other reason, I'm not able to post anything in these forums except the customer support section. What's up?

Hi Baraka,

Welcome to the forums.

No e-mail verification message is needed to participate on the Silk Road forums. However, new members can only post in the Newbie and Support forums; this restriction was brought in to fight major spamming efforts that were being made by one entity.

Once you reach 50 posts you will be able to post anywhere you wish. In the meantime, please do your reading in the Security forum to ensure your security is up to scratch, and read the Stickies at the top of each forum.

Thanks for replying. Now I understand. I'll get on the posting right away. I've already beefed up my security and won't let my guard up.

BTW, love the quote :)

You're very welcome, and I'm glad to hear you have your security beefed up - remember though, we can never stop learning and there are always new methods that we need to keep up to date with to keep ourselves safe.
Keep a close eye on the Security forum, there are a lot of very knowledgeable posters in there! :)

Locking this thread as it is resolved.
