Conversations disabled?

Did I post this in the wrong area?

I agree that this forum has a problem with scammers and blocking conversations helps, but it would be nice to know what exactly is needed to make my two year old account usable again.

So can I get an answer to my original question? Am I going to be able to send messages to people at some point?

Are all my posts now going to require moderator approval indefinitely? If you're going to make a huge change like this it's usually good to explain what you're doing and how it's supposed to work.
 
The messages you sent originally are there, here they go into a queue to be reviewed before posting


it's not automated the automated system is easy to game so we do it manually to try and prevent the scammers from being let in

it's a ton of work every day, so your minor inconvenience is to enhance security

Read what Frank said in his first post. The answer is yes, they just have to manually review any account that has been dormant like yours.

This was explained to those of us that watch what is and has been happening. You just missed it because you weren’t around.

Don’t get too huffy, or you might find yourself on the outside looking in. 😉
