Hi,
I read the FAQ that in case of PM prolems i should contact board.

Who is board? Where to ask for activation of PM.

I received some PMs and can not even answer 😒

I believe that in order to be able to send PMs you need to participate more. I do not know how to quantify "more" but I think your problem is that you only have 11 posts.

NOTE: I am not an admin, and if I am wrong an admin can correct me.

It's correct that you need to have a certain amount of posts to send PMs. Previously there have been incidents were spammers/attackers sent PMs to other members with provocative content and this rule was implemented to stop that.

I do think you should be able to reply to a PM if you have received one, I'll ask Qbix if that is possible to implement.

I sent you one to see if you still can't reply back, tell me if it worked (it seems to have worked on my side)

Thank you for your support.

More or less, the thing is to post messages, it should unlock after a certain amount (I have no idea which..), but remember, always prefer quality over quantity when it comes to messaging.
