It’s crazy that it’s this difficult to create a post. I get not wanting spam, but FFS.

this should be posted somewhere easier to find when you are a new user. I honestly have very little experience with a forum like this one and it was driving me crazy. Thank you for your reply I was getting very frustrated.

Users also experiencing this apparent bug could discuss solutions or help report it

I have searched the forums thoroughly and no one is discussing this specific issue.

Topics in this category would include collective discussion of the frequency of users encountering this bug.

Possible solutions, including best way to inform the creators. Reveal what may be a user error in understanding how the “Maximum Auto-Increment Save States to Keep” function functions. This category is needed as the feature is likely to be malfunctioning, and could use a fix.

I have: Gone into 20+ topics, liked more than 5 messages, read more than 50 posts… I have a feeling that this isn’t entirely accurate. … Annoying when you want to ask a question. It’s more likely to get people to go somewhere else rather than try to be part of the community (especially when this isn’t told to you when joining). … Maybe you could replace the welcome message with this to help people (or link them to this thread).

Same issue as everyone before me. How to ask a question/create a topic?

#19

You have to spam the forums with useless replies (which is what I’m basically doing now) and upvotes before it will let you create new topics. Which is sort of unfathomably idiotic, but I don’t writes the rules, I just knows 'em.

Thank you for this. Have been off the forum for years and had no idea why I couldn’t post all of a sudden.

So to create a topic about a problem, should I try to help others first?
