Cannot post my own work
 

Hi everyone,

I want to post my poetry for feedback in some of the forums, but it doesn't allow me to do so when I click on "new thread". Last week, I messaged a few administrators to inform them that I have fulfilled the required criteria of providing feedback on 15 poems, as well as being a member of the forum for more than a week (in order to be allowed to post my own work). I haven't received any reply. Maybe someone here knows another way to go about it. It would be very much appreciated.

Thanks very much.

Trevor

Hi Trevor,

Have you messaged Jayne Osborn? She's the one who can flick the switch.

Thanks, Matt. I just messaged her. I also don't get any email notifications (I've set it to instant notifications) even for new posts in threads I'm subscribed to.

I mentioned that to her too.

Thanks again, Matt.

I don't think anyone gets thread notifications. I don't. In fact, the last time I got a notification on a subscribed thread was December 2018! I get notifications of PMs and nothing else.

Hi Trevor,

Welcome to Eratosphere!

I've sent you a Private Message. You're good to go. :)

Hi Matt. I have never managed to get the subscription thread to work when I have selected the "instant notifications" option but when I select the "Daily Update" option, that seems to work.

Back when the notification function still worked, one poor soul started a General Talk thread titled "Middle-East Conflict" during the post-9/11 War in Iraq.

He repented 582 posts (and thus 582 email notifications) later. See his cri de cœur at https://www.ablemuse.com/erato/showp...&postcount=584
