'You cannot post with images, URLs or attachments because you are a new user.'

I've been around this site since Bill Cullen Esq. has been sh1teing nappies!

Hi Johnny,
It is not a bug I'm afraid. Due to serious spam issues, we had to recently change the permissions for new or low post users.

Users with less than 50 posts are not allowed to make posts containing images, attachments or URLs. Once you have reached 50 posts, you will have permission to do so.

Ah come on Niamh have I not proved myself over the last 13 years that I am no spam machine.

Could you allow an acceptance giving my good tenure.

Hi Johnny, I'm not on leave (unfortunately).
We aren't lifting the rules for anyone; your attempt at upping your post count with blank posts in this thread is not appreciated. Feel free to join in any conversation on the site to naturally increase your post count.

But when I as a member of boards.ie a couple of year ago it was only 25 posts before you can post a link, could you even apply legacy rules for me?

If it stands for anything I've defended boards.ie when friends and family only had bad things to say!
