Why is a Member Restricted From Posting Content?

[Hot Ptah]

A friend of mine has contacted me by email as he is receiving this message every time he logs in here and tries to post a comment on any subject:

 You are currently restricted from posting content.

Is there something he is supposed to do to become able to post content again? Thanks.

Is this Scott Dolan?

If it is, that's a question with a known answer.

Otherwise, not sure,

No it is someone who has not posted in a while and was never controversial.

My suggestion is they contact Jim via FB to see what the issue is.

Might just be an IP issue. So yes, Jim's the only(?) Administrator (is Use3D still around?), and you have to have Administrator access to deal with that type issue.

Thanks. I wondered if there was a way to fix it without taking up Jim’s time.

You can reach out to Use3D to see if he's still around. I think he's Jim's brother, maybe? He was/is also an Administrator.

Thank you, Jim.

Is he able to post now?

[Hot Ptah]

He can now post but not send private messages.

He should be able to send private messages now.

[Hot Ptah]

Yes he can.
