This is probably a dumb question, but how long until I can post in the other forums?

I think you are there. 5 posts

This had to be done because there has a horrible spam problem here up until 2 weeks ago. You could open a thread and it was full on ****

TK65 = Thunderkiss was my guess as well. Welcome to a kinder, gentler Olds forum. Even I try to keep on my best behavior here.

Looks like you have to wait 5 posts and 2 days

maybe a super mod can bump you to registered user status

Once a new member has 5 legitimate posts and 2 days registered, they'll automatically be promoted from "New User" to "Registered User" and be able to post anywhere else on the site.

This new registration/promotion process should all but eliminate Spam Bots from registering then randomly posting all over the site before we can catch and ban them. If nothing else, it should restrict it to the newbie forums so we only have to watch 1 place.
