New Member Limited to Five PMs Per Day
New members have an allowance of five Private Messages (PMs) per day until they are contributive members with a significant post history. If you have allowed members to e-mail you, they may also use that function. This is true even if a new member has made no posts (and post count can be altered by Moderators under certain circumstances).
We won't reveal the required number to withhold that information from spammers. We will not give a waiver and allow a greater number than five PMs per day to any new member. Merely participate as a member of our community and the limit will be lifted automatically.

Admin contact, maximum PM per day
Hi Guys,
I'm a new member, but have been actively contributing to threads wherever I can.
Can you explain the PM thresholds to me? I'm trying to respond to a question i've been asked but keep getting the following error:
You have exceeded the maximum number of private messages per day. This limit is removed after you become an established community member. Please contact an administrator if you feel this is in error.
Can you advise when this limit gets removed, or what it is per day? Or how best to contact an admin
Thanks in advance

Newbie's have limits to stop spamming.
To contact a moderator click the red-blue circle to the left. Moderators are volunteers, so may take some time to get back to you. They have a normal life outside of FT

Just to be clear, the moderators do not have the ability to change the daily PM limit, and would not be able to directly assist the OP. The request would need to be submitted to the Technical Support team who work for Internet Brands, the owners of FT.
This would probably best be addressed in the Tech Support forum, or by PM to Ibobi when the ability to send is available again.

From what I have read on FT before, the personal limits are very unlikely to be revised upwards on request from a newbie.
