50 posts reached, but still can't reply to PMs... - Back2Good - 03-29-2016

Question for the admins / mods - Amazingly enough I seem to have accumulated 50 posts, and my profile has been updated to "Junior Member" from "Newbie", but I've logged out and logged back into the site several times this afternoon, and I still can't reply to a PM, or access any "behind the wall" content.  If there's something else I need to do (clear cookies, etc.), please guide me in the right direction.

Best,

Hey b2g,

Sometimes it takes the board awhile to update and recognize your new status.  I board I modded it took an hour to two hours before someone's account was recognized as meeting the requirements.  I can't speak on behalf of the admins/mods here but that would be my guess.

Thanks Bighead - I'll clear cookies tonight and try again in the morning.

Best,

That's all it took - A night off, cleared cookies, and all seems well.  Thanks again, Bighead.

No problem back2good!  Glad you got it to work.  Some forums "refresh" hourly, every two hours, three hours, etc, etc, and some refresh daily.  When I hit 50 I was able to almost instantly get PM's, upgraded permissions, etc.

All i did was log out, close my browser, open it back up, delete cache/cookies/history. Log back in & gtg. But as Admin has said, it can take a day or so for servers to update. I don't think its an instantaneous process.
Good luck

It depends on what kind of cookies you have. And if you clear them with milk or not. Smile
