I can't post URLs as a new user. When will this restriction be lifted?

After your third post, IIRC.

Then it's probably after the sixth post. I knew it was one or the other. :oops:

But why the urgency to add a link to your very first post to WP? It's generally considered more polite to get to know a few people first, and the restriction is also a means of stopping "post-n-run" spammers. Not that I'm suggesting you would do this, but that's primarily why it exists.

Just go to one of the "Counting Threads" in the games section. So you can rack up your post count mindlessly and fast as possible.
