Hi. is there any way to bypass the 15 posts minimum to PM a member? This is for a legit question for a specific member. I can’t think of 15 posts and don’t want to make up bogus posts just to make the minimum. 15 posts is really a lot! Thanks.

@Angelino, no, the rule can’t be changed. We have had spammers register who started PMing a lot of users. The 15 post rule helps prevent that.

Maybe @Angelino tag the person you want to talk to and ask them to message you.

Or just create posts with one letter in the question and one letter in the body.

^ That would be annoying.
Yes, ask them to PM you and the line of communication is open.

Don’t advise that. They would be considered spam posts, and they would only end up being deleted and the user warned.

@OHMomof2 's suggestion is the best.
