can anyone tell me how long im classed as a new member on here as it only allows PM's to Mods and also doesnt allow me to post anywhere except on the new membert section.
Thanks

There is no time frame or post number or specific criteria that has to be met in order to get full membership.

The only thing you can do is ask good questions, participate with good responses, and follow the guidelines of the forum attitude; the mods will decide when it is appropriate for you to post in other forums.

You could expedite the process by writing them a casual essay stating why you'd like full membership status, but without anything to show for it, it may be difficult for mods to promote you based on an essay alone.

Cheers

you just have to be patient and contribute where you can, you have only made a few post.

it might be worth reading through the wiki/FAQ/attitude as you have posted a few things that are against the rules of the forum and that probably wont earn you any yes votes.

as Adjhart pointed out a intro essay is always handy

I think you will be in soon enough, don't despair, good things come to those who wait

Agreed with 3rdI. Be patient with the progress. Type what you truly mean with the awareness of Nexus protocols. It'll come. The voting system also plays a role in your adaptation.

Thank you everyone for the reply's, i understand good things come to those who wait

Edit: P.s many appologies for my breach in nexus rules, I made the mistake in posting before looking at the WIKI H&S and ATTITUDE, I still have a whole lot to learn but im begining to understand nexus etiquette now

Peace to all

I personally like the system and think it rewards good and meaningful posts, rather than having a lot of new members (myself included) asking a lot of redundant questions and reducing the quality of the responses.

The system makes you think about everything you post, which I admittedly do not do on other forums as this system is not in place!

I guess it's like joining a new company, you need to learn to adapt how you behave and speak to people in order to connect with the company. After some given time with the company, you realize you no longer need to adapt as you both read from the same page.
