Yes, you are right about that. I'll take that option instead of PM's.

Regards.

Hello,

As I am new member in this forum and have not done any posts yet (even read tons of valuable post made by others...), but now got a problem by "Allotment 2PM" message. I have sent PM to one other member and got answer too, but I cannot send my asnswer to him due to this message of 2PM - What I cand (or should) do to be able to respond to PM now?

Sadly your only opinion is to wait out 24hours until the "day" rolls over. Remember that Head-Fi might not not be operating on the same timezone as yours. My suggestion is to try and communicate via email or something until you have built up a bigger post count and have more PM allotments.

mainly to get my post count up :wink:

..... In my opinion its terrible spam protection method. I understand limiting initial pm's, but can't understand limiting responses.... I pm'd 2 people with a request for some help relating to my um3x's(both cases I tried to address their specific posts on threads) and 1 of the people responded. Not realizing that the pm quota included responses, I have to wait till "tommorow"(local time I pm'd yesterday).....If a person wants to mass spam that badly I don't think this particular method will stop them, auto signup programs/scripts exist where at most its requires proxies and typing in verification images. I'm sure there's simpler methods of accomplishing spam filtering more efficiently; block tinyurl/ect in pm's, compare messages, keyword/url blocks, report spam button.....

I need to send another PM today so bad! :frowning2:

What should I do?

Samken · Jun 3, 2011 at 12:58 PM

I think that just 2 messages is a little harsh, if it was at least 5 or 10 messages a day...

n10797 · Jun 26, 2011 at 7:17 PM

Yes it's too bad that it's only 2 messages per day. Hopefully I can still make a deal!

Yea while I'm like at 1500 posts so it won't concern me, I definitely think 2 messages is way too harsh should be AT LEAST 5.

I'm experiencing the same problem right now. I wonder if it's just a system error but there don't seem to be any other posts on the subject right now.

buffalowings · Jun 29, 2011 at 8:14 PM

you need a larger post count.. pms seem to be limited by how many posts you have as well

Yes. I got the same problem as well.

komugi · Jul 1, 2011 at 12:20 AM

Same, definitely a bug, didn't send a message since at least 2-3 months ago. If you're going to limit the PM, at least make sure the daily reset works.

Hello,

Please, let me know why I can't send even one PM and this error always exist "Error: You have sent your daily allotment of 2 messages"!

Thank you in advance
