    Hello everyone,

    I'm new here, and I tried to "start a conversation" with one person and it didn't work. I thought, maybe they had blocked me or something, so I didn't try it again until just now with some members that I know for sure would not have blocked me because we were talking on my wall and I had the same thing happen. It said something like "You are not allowed to start a conversation with so and so..." and I was wondering if this function had been disabled for everyone or if it's just me?

    Any answers appreciated!

    EDIT: I'm sorry if this isn't posted in the right category. I couldn't figure out where else to post it. This place seemed most appropriate.

    Hey the starting a conversation button which you tried to press is like a private message function which you only get access to once you are a full member. So don't worry nobody has blocked you you will just need to become a full member before you can use that function. Until then you can use peoples walls as it sounds like you have been, just remember that walls are public and messages can be seen :slight_smile:.

    No it doesn't cost anything at all. I can't remember all of he criteria but you have to have around 50 posts I think from memory and they have to be not all in the fun and games threads. At the moment I know the application for full membership is down as not that long ago the forum went through a huge upgrade and so whilst the main forum is up and running there are bits they are still fixing. There will also be at some point when the staff get it sorted a chat room for full members.
