Can't reply in my own thread

[Newguy1985]

I don't know if this is a problem or an intended function, so I figured I'd ask and find out. I created my account, activated it via email, and created a new thread in Classic Movie ID Request called "Anna Amore Scene". Someone replied and I wanted to respond but when I click the 'Post Reply' or 'Quote' buttons, I get this:

Newguy1985, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

At the bottom left there's a box titled Posting Rules that reads:

You may not post new threads
You may post replies
You may not post attachments
You may edit your posts

But despite what it says, I can post new threads and I can reply in any other thread besides my own. Please explain or help me out! Thanks!

Actually you should not have had permission to start a thread in the first place. You registered and immediately posted a request before the system had a chance to put you in the "No Requests Allowed" group.

This group was created because we had far too many people who would register, make a request, and then never participate in the forum.

You need 150 thanks received to make a request in that section. You can get the required thanks received by participating in General Discussion or Funnies if you do not have content to share.
