If you are currently experiencing problems posting in any areas, please post here and list what the problem is. If you can't post here and can only read posts here, please PM a mod to stating the nature of the problem. Due to a resent update to our website's main program, some account settings were changed. This disabled some users from being able to post in certain areas of the forums.

Reminder: If you are not experiencing any problems, then there is no need to post here.

To all users unable to create a new thread in news articles forum:

We have changed the settings on the news artcles forum so that normal users can't create new threads there. We have been getting so much non-news stuff that we have closed it. If you feel something should be placed there, PM a mod to have them move it there.

That's called regimodded. Every post that is created must be approved by a mod before it shows up to normal users. Mods normally place users on regimodded if they spam, excessive bumping, or other policy violations.

A mod must preapprove each thread before normal users can view them. This will help cut down spam and non G-rated topics there.


You pay $20 USD for a year sig subscription. We've got some extras coming with it soon.

The only problem I've had is sometimes I will log in, go to the forums and try to post and it will say I'm not logged in. This has happened a few times.

When I log in a second (and only once third) time, I usually stay logged in.

If you're still have problems, send me a detailed PM stating what kind of problems you are having.

~LeFrancinoNews is closed so only mods can make new threads. We normally see where someone has already posted new about VMK in another forum and move it to the news. If you feel something is news worthy, you can PM a mod to have them move it.

The main forum Trading Post is closed the same as above. The sub-forums are open for everyone to create new threads and post. This way we can keep the thread topics grouped together instead of everyone posting in the main forum.

Registered users can create new polls in the Polls & Surveys forum, but they go into the moderation queue for approval before they can be seen by regular users.

The mods check the moderation queue several times a day, but it can often take several hours before a moderated post will be approved. If the mod feels that the post does not conform to our expectations for posts to this site, it may never get approved.

That's because you aren't allowed to. :) No users are allowed to post new threads in the news section. We mods choose what belongs there and what doesn't. When users were allowed to post, there were things like "look! it's tuesday! whee!"

I'm guessing the "somewhere else" is either news or trading post? click the sticky there called 'why can't I post in I have to trade?" You have to join the trading forum. You must be a member for over a month and have amassed some posts.

Well there is a requirement to get into the trading post. You have to have a certain number of posts and be here over a month. Even that does not guarantee you will get into Trader Mick's.

You may only post trades for items or requests for items in the I have to trade or wanted trades sections. If you post a trade offer or request anywhere else, it is deleted or removed.

This is to prevent scammers and it's for your safety. You need to apply to be in Trader Mick's under UserCP>group memberships AFTER you have been here a month (you just joined in the last few days).

In the meantime, any posts or threads for trades will be deleted.

In addition, you have attached too many images to make a "signature". You must pay for a signature, or post ONE of those as an attachment. We have rules on signature sizes (no larger than 200x500 pixels TOTAL).

Thanks,
Shorts

You need to apply to trader mickey by going to Group Memberships (http://www.vmkforums.com/forums/profile.php?do=editusergroups) in your userCP. Mods review applications for new users to this group.
I have a problem-well, I CAN post, but when I try to attach a picture it will not let me..
Make sure it is a valid file type or make sure you have enough room left to add a new file.

Valid file extensions: bmp doc gif jpe jpeg jpg pdf png psd txt x32 zip

I have tried to join Trader Micks and have not heard anything as of yet. I have tried twice in the last three months and would really like the opportunity to trade. Any help you can offer is appreciated.
Thanks!

I can't post a thread in the forum "Polls and Surveys" and I don't know why. When I post the thread it takes me back to the forums and when I search for my thread, it doesn't show up..nor does it show up on the front page.

All threads created in the Polls and Surveys forum requires approval from a moderator first. So actually, everyone faces the same "problem" as you. The solution is to just be patient and wait for a moderator to approve the poll/thread. If you don't see the thread after a day, it's likely that it was deleted, because it didn't follow the site rules.
