So, I see someone living near me who works for a company I'm looking at. I register so I can send him a PM. I write this long PM and click send only to be told I need 7 posts before can send a PM and when I hit page back the PM is gone!
I drive with my CB off
I listen to Alex Jones on satellite 3 hours per day.
I download books from audible.com.
I push a truck up and down the road for money.
lost a long post! :-(

I'm so sorry that happened. Unfortunately we have to have those rules here to keep our members free of spam in their inbox. If you need to send a PM before the 7 posts, you can forward it to any moderator and they will make sure that your PM gets to the right person.
Again, I apologize for your frustration.
-
Post bumping does not help the situation and is frowned upon in the community.
-
Kind of you, thank you. If it were possible to get a warning or something, but I understand about the spam. As you can see I'm working on it now.
-
You should have gotten a Welcome PM from me with the rules and also the information about having to have 7 posts to PM.
-
Post bumping is when you want your post sent back to the top. I'm obviously just trying to get in seven posts so I can contact somebody about a job before I start a job elsewhere on Monday.
-
Send the PM to me and I will forward it to the proper individual. Be sure to include their screen name.
-
OK, then you did everything. My predicament is this, I start orientation on Monday but there is somebody on here who might be able to help me out about one last possibility. It's not often you run across someone who lives where you went to high school doing exactly the job you're considering. I ought to be pretty close now, right?
-
If your saying that I removed your PM to this person, no, I did not. I'm just trying to help you with the situation. If a person cannot PM because of post count, the system kicks it out with a message that you do not have enough posts to Private Message. I did merge your posts that you were trying to get to 7 with. Because we see that as an easy way to get to the PM system and a possible spammer situation.
rookietrucker Thanks this. -
I know you didn't delete the PM, I was just hoping I could copy it and post it later but it was gone.
Regardless, it's all taken care of, now.
So, "hey" to all the truckers out there in message board land. Two topics I like are the Alex Jones radio show and books on MP3. As far as trucking goes, it pays the bills. If I was really all that into trucking I'd probably still be an O/O. Having said that, there is much to be said for paying the bills.
OK now, that's my intro!
