Same here, have you figured out a number yet?

I found that around 10 over a couple weeks did it for me. Not sure if it is has to do with number of posts or a combination of posts and time.

Wondering as well

Few days and few posts. Just engage in society. Welcome!😃

[Qsilver7]

Bimmerpost forum requires a minimum post count and time since registration to activate the private messaging (PM) feature. Generally, new members need to make a certain number of posts and wait a few days before they can send PMs. For example, one forum requires 10 posts and 7 days since registration. Another requires four post replies and one hour of wait time after registration, with five posts needed to receive PMs.

Why the Restrictions?

The restrictions on PMs are in place to prevent spam and abuse of the forum's messaging system. By requiring a minimum number of posts and a waiting period, the forum aims to filter out users who are only interested in using the forum for spam or scams.

Thanks for the info. Do you know how to add your garage or how to post a full pic on a profile? Or where is the source for this type of info?

Sorry for the late reply, I'm just now seeing this post resurface to the top.

It may depend on what you're using to read the forum with and the type of view selected. I always use the DESKTOP VIEW version...so if you are using a more scaled down version, what's below may not apply...nor may you even see it.

But if you want to add an Avatar, add your car info or change it, or create a garage or signature, etc...simply click on the User CP link at the top of the page. This should open a new page that has links along the left side that allows you to personalize your page as well as read your PMs or send PMs etc.

See the areas highlighted in green, red, and blue in the screen capture below:
