I know that this has nothing to do with this topic. How does someone create a new topic? I have looked and looked and looked, and cannot see anything that looks remotely like a "create new post/topic. All I can do is reply to a post that is already created by other ppl.

This post has a good breakdown of the different ways to reach “trust level 1”, which allows you to make new topics:

good luck to you, then 
Jesus Christ, people have lives too instead of wandering around all day just to create one topic. Not everyone has free time as yours. Some are family men some are job workers. Some got to take care of their health. NGL its a pretty stupid rule. But whatever helps you sleep at night

You make the incorrect assumption that I have excess free time, no family and no job (and perfect health), such that I not only need to spend it all answering the same questions over and over from people who refuse to spend a few minutes searching for an answer before posting (during which time they would fulfill the requirements to reach the trust level required for making new topics), but also to clean up all of the spam that results from less stringent requirements.
Are you familiar with the idiom ‘when you point a finger at someone, there’s three fingers pointing back at you’?

I believe the ones in this post are still valid: How can i create a new topic? :/
Here, I’ll like your post and we can see if that pushes you through.

wait are there that many bots that hit this site? or are there too few administrators? Just want to understand the whole limit thing; totally noob for sure.
Yes, forums are consistently targeted by SEO spammers.
And yes, I do almost all of the moderation myself.

oh snaps! well thank you for the clarification. ill stick around so i can add some new posts. I worked with Retropie, Recalbox, Batorcea and retrobat; usually adding some esoteric walkthrough to help people with Dual boots, getting Diablo/fallout/Warhammer up and running correctly, etc. EmuElec is a great alternative to Retorpie due to the Scalpers of pi (40 dollars to now 120plus). I’m using La Potato personally.

This was my experience. I just registered and am wondering why I can’t start a new question.
I agree with this 
I’m trying to ask a question about a problem I’m having with retroarch. Do I really need to make five posts just so I can ask my question? If so here is post number 1.
Please tell me I don’t have to harass 3 more people with posts not related to their topic just so I can ask my question. Here is post number 2.
Hope you guys don’t mind me doing this but post number 3
Help? How do I make a new Topic? I need help with something but there’s no button to make a new topic.
So I actually read the requirements to make a new topic and I’m fairly certain I have managed to fulfill at least three:
Entering 10 different topics
Reading 50 posts
Give at least 5 likes
Two should apparently be enough, but it doesn’t seem to be working. Have I missed something?
