I was trying to make a post in the G.E.C.K. section, for FallOut 3 and included a link to the G.E.C.K. Wikia main page...after I finished writing and tried to use the "preview" tab I got an "Error" message saying I am not allowed to post links -- but most irritating of all is it deleted my entire post while I was still trying to compose it, before I could go back and remove the link...so I'd be forced to rewrite the entire thing from start.

Is there a minimum number of posts I must make before I can add a link? Or does my account need to be "approved" by staff or something along those lines?

Is this information available for new forum members to read...I've looked through the forum rules and not seen it...but I may have overlooked it or been looking in wrong place.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

You'll be able to post links after your posts count has reached 10.

Ok, thank you. Most frustrating thing about it was I was not actually posting it, but trying to use the "preview" tab...instead of having the option to edit out the link, it deleted the entire post. Oh well, live and learn.

Thank you for your time and assistance.
