That's nice. Maybe we need nanny 2+2 to protect others from you.

I always wondered why I still don't have PMs. Now I know the truth.

If you couldn't use the Search or the FAQs to find the answer to this question, you're equally unlikely to be able to find a safe trading partner.

I just got scammed twice trying to buy stuff. My fault to be honest. But i'm curious how to get PM's turned on so I can pm instead of dealing with emails to trade my GDMP for some lock points.

you could try alerting the moderators of the section you had the problem and the source of it, the bottom of the post click the button of the particular post.

Someone will be by shortly I am sure to explain more on the topic of PMs and being new here.

If it was in the marketplace you should probably start by reporting the thread/post where the trade was initiated using the report button which you will find next to the post.

On a more general note, PMs are not activated until a combination of a minimum period of time since registering and a minimum number of posts have been made; the exact details of these requirements are not publicised, for obvious reasons, and the restrictions are in place to deter scammers and spammers, and also to try and protect newcomers from their own enthusiasm, which makes them more likely to become victims of the aforementioned spammers and scammers.

GL!

Don't listen to them as they're mods and so what do they know. PMs are like women. You've got to caress them. It may take a while but it's worth it.

Spoiler:
Seriously though, what the mods said.

Most accounts that want access to PMs right away are spammers. Some are scammers. These rules make it a little bit more difficult to create disposable accounts for these purposes (especially spambots).

If you fall into neither of these categories, then likely the reason you want PMs ASAP is to participate in transfers, staking, coaching, prop betting or some other transaction with people you don't know.

By creating this thread you have demonstrated that you are unaware of or ignore the standard practices, conventions and norms of online forums such as reading FAQs, lurking before posting and searching. This implies that you are ill prepared to do the necessary due diligence required to prevent being taken advantage of. Waiting some time before enabling PMs helps to prevent people from jumping right in, taking no precautions and being scammed.

Please reconsider engaging in any such transactions until you are more seasoned, knowledgeable and better able to practice safe Internet. Please carefully read all available FAQs and stickies related to whatever high risk activity you are attempting to engage in before proceeding.

Just insert your attachments, that usually works.

You see the stickied thread called "Read me first?" Maybe read that first.

Make them feel special and unique snowflakes that are too good for you, then they'll let you jump on their bones.

Or try getting them drunk.
