We apologise for the temporary "pain" that newly-registered members will have to go through, but this will be temporary and you will stand to benefit once you post more than 50 posts AND have been registered for more than 30 days.

The thread was deleted by the thread starter. Here is the pertinent information regarding the Workshop forums and Private Message limit.shihyong said:
With immediate effect, we have made the following changes:-
Workshops & Studio Shoots forum
1. Disable thread closing
2. Disable thread/post editing
3. Disable thread/post deleting
New members - those with less than 50 posts AND/OR registered less than one month.
1. Reduced total # of PMs to 10
The changes in the Workshop/Studio forum are meant to maintain transparency and accountability for studio/workshop organisers. Those organisers who want to maintain and sustain a long-term and viable business would not be worried about these changes, while we want to give some degree of assurance to those members who may be wary of fly-by-night organisers who do not have a track record in ClubSNAP.
For the PM portion, this restriction on total # of PMs will be lifted once the member has accumulated 50 posts AND has been registered for more than 30 days. As a bonus for enduring the cooling-off period, we have increased the limit of PMs for members who pass the 50-post and 30-day mark to 100 PMs.
The qualification to get 100 PMs iswcsiaw said:Hi Darren,
I think the link above is down. 30 days after the rule is implemented issit?Got to participate in more of the forum already...
a) Registered with ClubSNAP more than 30 days
AND
b) Have more than 50 posts
.... should inform before deleting ..... I thought the thread has served it's purpose, but forgotten the rest I don't quite understand the rationale of forcing people to post. Already, I can't participate in poll, and now I have to delete all my PM in order to be able to PM again.....
why so much restriction? Are you facing a lot of problem with new users? Or people simply register too many accounts and doing something funny? These can be worked around by asking for a valid email, send the password to the email, and refuse the re-registration with the same email again.... this would have some deter effect, instead of restricting so much to the new user, or user who seldom post.

Yes, we had experienced a few problems with individuals registering new nicks and posting in the Workshop/Studio forums and Consumers Corner. As these individuals are posting threads which invariably involve monetary transactions, we have had to be extra careful and limit the "exposure" via hidden mechanisms such as the Private Message system. Unfortunately, as a by-product, ordinary and legitimate new members such as yourself are affected adversely.
However, this current workaround may not be permanent, and we are actively looking for another way to effectively handle the new member's postings in Workshops & Consumers Corner.
