> Hello.
> Are you having issues starting a new thread? Did you start a new thread using your phone yesterday, but are using a computer today? New members are finding that they are restricted from starting a new thread when using a computer, due to the recent spambots issue.
@rosemow I used my computer yesterday and started a thread which has now been removed and gives me a permissions error when I went to revisit the notification. I can not start a new thread today, either from phone or computer. I didn't get any messages notifying me I was banned or anything, but when I go to message someone I get the same permissions error. No button at all to start a thread. I know I'm new and not a full member yet, but I was able to start threads literally 12 hours ago.
I finally have enough posts to be a member, but not points. The only badges I can earn are related to getting the likes or lols or whatever or hitting 100+ comments. It feels like it's taking forever, but hopefully if I comment enough I can get there so I earn posting privileges.. or see if for some reason they just took mine away.
Which if mine alone were taken away I'd be very concerned why I wasn't informed by them of what exactly I did wrong. But hopefully that's not the case. I really wasn't trying to do anything bad. The only thing I can think of was the post I made which got removed - which I legitimately read the rules and didn't sense it was above teen related since it was all content already allowed in the game. I've seen far worse mods discussed on a daily basis without issue.
@vintagesaturday, I'm sorry you have been having so many issues with the new system. I went through your profile and awarded you points. You should have enough now. Try logging out and logging in again to see if it takes.
I hope @SimGuruDrake takes a look at this. It seems to be new members are having an increasing number of issues when trying to participate.

Hello @vintagesaturday .
You are now a member and will be able to start new threads and send messages .
Thank you so much @rosemow and @greenXen you have been an amazing help
I really appreciate getting bumped up to member status finally. So so so so appreciated.
I am 100% able to post now, so I'm very relieved I wasn't banned or anything. They must have just taken them away again for new members or something else. Phew!
You guys are truly lovely for taking so much time to help out newbies like myself. Thanks again!

Hello @NewbieSimmer<3
Due to the recent spambots issues, new member simmers may be restricted from starting new discussion threads.You may not able to start a new thread until you become a full member.
If you have a game issue, you can post it on another thread that another simmer has already started, and there will be simmers that will help you with your issue.
Hey! I have a question! I'm not sure if it might have something to do with being a new member or not (?) But using the quote button at the bottom of posts doesn't seem to be working properly, I've seen it happen to a few other people around, but I'm also hoping it isn't just my ridiculous laptop x). But it changes the format so that all the coded text is in the post too rather than creating the quote box. Is there another way to do it?

Hello @Monkinonk. The quotes don't display in a grey box until you become a full member. Once you become a full member the quotes will from then on show correctly.
You need to have 50 points and 30 posts before you can become a full member and can then post pictures, have a signature, post links and change your profile picture.This thread explains about it. http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/770609/member-or-new-member-everything-you-need-to-know
do you need to be a member to create a discussion?

What picture sharing site do you use for your pictures?? If you preview your post, will the pictures show up or nah? If anyone could answer asap that'd be great thanks

You can use preview to see what the pictures are like before posting the pictures.
To post the pictures on the forums, upload your pictures to the photo sharing site. Right click the picture on the photo sharing website , and click copy. Or you can copy the direct link code that is on the left or right hand side of the site page. The picture button is the button with the little file picture on it above the forum post. Press the picture button above your post , paste the image address into the box, then press the enter button. Then the image address will be in your post ready to appear when posting your post.
Sorry, I think I've read through to try and find this but must have missed it. How do I start my own thread?? I see no option to, I can only reply to already created ones. Do I have to wait until I'm a member and not so new?
