There is a minimum number of posts you have to make on this forum before you can PM.
This is so the moderators can ensure that you are not a scammer. It is nothing personal, it applies to every new member.

buffalobills & kingtts,

The more you PARTICIPATE in the forums the larger your mailboxes will become too, so that's just another good reason to be more active. Also, the more you participate on the forums the more friends and contacts you will make.

Cheers,

P-A-R-T-I-C-I-P-A-T-E in the forums and this will solve everybody's problems with the Private Message System.

It's really that simple. It's hard to understand why people join Expat-blog if they don't want to participate in the forums. Do you guys all think it's just like having another free e-mail address??? WRONG!!!

Oh, and don't try flooding everybody's mailbox with COPY & PASTE messages, that will get you bounced from the blog before you can say "that's some bad hat Harry".

Cheers,

To all of those complaining about not being able to PM from the first day on this forum, read what wjwoodward has posted above and what I posted previously.
This forum is not a yahoo, gmail or google where you simply open an account and start PM straight away.
