Default Post limits before PM a member?

Hi, long story short is I need to reach out to a member who is a friend but I have no way of contacting in real life, and I urgently need to reach him. I'd rather not crud up the forum with 10 useless posts... Is there a way for an admin to approve PM capabilities for me, even if temporary?

This would best be answered by Administrator @RPM WS6

The restrictions, which is not desired to be spelled out as they can work against the system, is there to help protect the community against Spammers and Scammers. There has been some recent Spam bot attacks on LS1Tech as well as communities like LS1Tech.

Yup, I totally understand... Spammers have gotten sophisticated and administrators have limited tools to deal with them. I don't want to disrespect the forum either.

I am in the same boat. There is car in the classifieds a few hours from me that I am seriously interested in buying. I’d love to be able to PM the owner, but cannot.

I started racing a Subaru on dirt and want an F body for pavement. I’m scared to blow up a P car engine racing.
