wondering what “ You have insufficient privileges to reply here” actually means? Mackka
With the old software you were restricted from posting in some areas and messaging until you had ten posts. This was a measure to keep the SPAM out. This new software has much better facilities for catching the Spammers. “ You have insufficient privileges to reply here” means the Admin has blocked all members from posting. There were a few that we also couldn't post in. On example was the Competitions section which I asked Admin to unlock so we could run the COM and FOM. Any particular section you are referring to?

Yes RJ, it was Phasetech this morning with Mbasko. I didn't have a comment to make but the wording came up under the item.

Was it in the Sponsor Directory? Here: https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/threads/phase-technical-products.8327/#post-644728
If so that section is most likely locked to posting/replies unless you are a site sponsor or mod.
It's nothing sinister & even the mod squad get it in some sections. Example in Sponsor Trades we can add replies but can't start a thread.

It was under the What’s New this morning .
When you click on "What's New" it brings up the latest posts etc. regardless of forum section.
It would have been the post I put up on the Phase Technical Products thread which is in the Sponsor Directory & that section appears to be locked to posting or adding threads unless you have Site Sponsor or moderating team privileges.
Just designed to keep general banter, unwanted comments, spam & so forth out of that section &/or other similar sections.

The only other time you'll see it come up in the majority of forum sections is if you've been temporarily or permanently banned from posting on a specific topic. This function is to prevent members continually making negative posts &/or off topic posts on someone else's thread. If that's the case it would have been accompanied by a warning message via Conversations (PM).
Nothing for you to worry about Mackka, you've been a good lad 😁👍

That explains it, thanks Matt. Cheers
 
I lost a ripper pin in this volcanic cap rock, so I brought the gold monster this morning to try and find it. Total wrong detector choice coz it just screams everywhere🤣
