Please tell me what is going on!

The the general forum rules as seen here http://www.webhostingtalk.com/misc.php?s=&action=forum-rules

I don't agree with one of the rules, if someone sends you a PM you can't access it...I seriously do not agree with that!!!

Someone did send me a PM when I had only 2 posts, now that I have like 6 posts -- was able to access the PM when I posted my 5th post earlier and responded to it -- and will have no problem sending PMs.

oops my bad they can send you a pm if you don't have 5 posts! thats the way the rules are and most people don't seem to have a problem with them.

Well, I still don't like the rules...!

If you don't like the rules, why did you click submit to join up?

Do you actually believe anyone actually reads the Terms as well as the rules when they sign up for a web-based forum?!

Yes, ofc.

I did, but then again....

Maybe you might want to in future, the rules are there for a reason.
