It must be due to the fact that you were attempting to post either a website link or an image. You do not have the required number of posts to be able to do eithe rof these things yet. This issue was addressed in this post http://www.roddingroundtable.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=6497 It is due the the actions of spammers who are posting images and links with sexually oriented content

Paul, we are having a problem with spammers. this is no reflection on any of the current members. Some * nearly slipped through in the last couple days, posted by a new member, a spammer.  One of out alert moderators caught it.

Now, if you only have 7 posts as your profile says, you will have to post three more times, and have been a member for a week, to post pictures, or a URL. This includes URLs in your signature.

I'm sorry it  has to come to this, but with the world as it is today, we have to protect ourselves, providing a reliable place for the members.

NO, NO! You can post because you've got more then 10 post's. It's just to prevent the one time spammers from posting links and pics.
It's another unfortunate sign of our times......................Frank

Not a problem, post away. This only applies to new members, that signed up 2 18 07 or after, or those having less than 10 posts. If anyone else is getting that message, email me, and I'll fix it.

I am not aware of any deleted posts lately.   I caught the  OFF COLOR  stuff that has resulted in the recent changes to the posting of web links by Newbies.

With your number of posts there should no problem
