You have insufficient privileges to reply here

You have insufficient privileges to reply here, is the message I get when trying to post anything in the fantasy section. My question is why and how this happened since earlier I was able to post in the fantasy section.

Yes, there are new restrictions that have been placed on the Fantasy section this morning preventing new members from posting there.

We are trying to encourage new members to contribute to other parts of the forum when they first join and not simply hang out in the Fantasy section.

Once you have been a member for a while and posted enough in other topics, you will automatically be granted access to post in the Fantasy forum.

I haven't had a chance to post an announcement about it yet.

I also encounter this problem despite having started my project days ago.

I was wondering why I couldn’t reply too, that I wanted to talk about future plans for the African grassland area for the Omaha zoo of what can be done to make it better.

How many posts do you need to have, and how long must you be a member for before you are allowd to post

How many posts do you need to have, and how long must you be a member for before you are allowd to post

We deliberately don't define those figures explicitly - we don't want to have people posting a lot of low value posts to try and get access quickly.

The upgrade process is automatic.
