      The required post count and time threshold are unknown to OS forum members, as stated in the TOS(rules) thread:http://www.operationsports.com/forum...17-2013-a.html

      New User Posting
      All new users have a 'probationary period' in which they will not be able to create new threads or send private messages to other users. You must reply to threads until this period is finished. The period is a set number of days AND a set number of posts. These numbers are not disclosed, as we do not want people posting just to get past their probationary period.

          No, if there is a thread you need to start I will start it for you.

          For the most part though, anything you could want to add could be done through many of the open threads.

          Let me know though if there is a thread you want to start that doesn't have an existing conversation. I would be happy to do it for you.

                I just love the search function. It keeps me from starting new threads when I don't have to.
                The only SPAM I like comes in a can.

                  I wish I had known about this sooner. I didn't realize it was a post threshold. I've had an account for years and was getting so frustrated that I still couldnt search or start a new thread. Should've been posting this whole time.

                        Hi, I joined recently and made my first post today. I'm looking to create a thread in the Madden 22 PC subforum asking about the Steam controller vs other controllers (There's no thread on pg 1 or 2 about controllers and I don't have permission to search or start threads). How do I fix? Thanks!

                          You need to reach a certain number of posts (the exact number is not revealed, but it isn't too many) in order to gain permission to start threads. This measure had to be put in place to deter spammers who would create accounts and spam the boards with multiple spam threads. So just keep contributing constructively to a few of the many discussions going on throughout the forums and your priveledges will unlock before too long. Search is disabled for most users due to limitations with the current forum software though a switch to newer software is currently in the works. See other threads in this section for more info.

                            I've been a member since 2021 and I'm not sure how I'm supposed to post anything if I keep getting a message that I don't have privileges.

                              You didn't have enough posts, but since you've been here since 2021, I went ahead and activated it.

                                Question about this. Once I reach the posting threshold will the thread that I tried to start be automatically pushed through?
