I would add to Chitlin's post: check your facts before posting. I have noticed that some of your advice is not totally accurate.

stedman1 could be right about this; to test, do you see a "Report Post" button in the lower right corner of our posts here (it won't show up for your own)?

That's almost to be expected. With changes come unexpected consequences always. The Forum is so haunted with glitches the most important thing is to know what to do when it happens. Copy your work. Refresh the page. See if you're still signed in. Wait a little while. Paste your work in. Try again.

I couldn't help notice , 120 points in one day, you're smokin'. Keep up the good work but don't burn yourself out, the Forum always needs new talent.

I am receiving this message, I am a level one and am trying to be helpful although even though I have solved problems people don't mark mine any suggestions.

Sadly, that is very common. I would guess only 10-20% of people actually (correctly) mark an answer as being correct or helpful. Keep answering questions (correctly) and the points will come.

Do you mean you're receiving a "you can't reply to this message" message ? If you are then slow down. Because of the problems with spam in the Forum there is a limit to how many messages you can post in a given time. The number naturally is a deep secret.

I noticed you just received a greenie (This solved my problem award.) Congradulations The Forum always needs new talant. If you need a hand there are plenty of friendly knowledgeable people here willing to help.

I also noticed on many of the questions you answered on the OP (original poster) just didn't award points. I'll second what stedmen has already said . The points will come.

I remember the first time I was awarded points. I bet you won't be able to sleep tonight with the big smile on your face. Welcome aboard and keep up the good work.

I just ran into you in another thread and noticed you just solved another question. 20 points is a full days work, pace yourself and be careful you don't burn yourself out.

And I've been in the community for a long time, but apparently that doesn't matter. I can't even make TWO posts! I got the message.

see my reply to your post in the other thread - we need accurate data about your ActionFlow to help

right now, your post seems to be just griping. So...

Tell us a Story

- with a beginning, a middle and end. We need to understand everything that you know and have experienced.

If this issue is new, tell us what immediately preceded its onset - add software, upgrade or update? New equipment?

"Keep It Short and Simple" - Take your time... but be thorough - ÇÇÇ

The software that runs this community is full of bugs and quirks. You might not be doing anything wrong at all. It can be quite challenging sometimes trying to post here.

If you desdrive what you are doing as ChitlinsCC suggested, it will be a big help in trying to help you.

I get the "Post limit reached" thing ALL THE TIME. Here it is right now.

If you try to post more than once in about 30 seconds you will get that. It's an anti-spammers measure instituted last year when the forums were overrun and unuseable due to continuous spamming.

I wish it were thirty seconds. I can't post more often than about every ten minutes.

Try logging out/back in, erase history and cache. These forums are riddled with glitches - it is the Jive software used for the forums.

Let us know whether or not this 'magically' clears up - we can alert our Hosts who will handle problems on a case-by-case basis (I have TWO in the pipeline right now!)
