why am I getting a posting error

Trying to post, but I get this error.

An error has occurred NJKevin! You must have 10 posts in order to post links. Your current post count is 2..

I am NOT posting a link. Just a question.

SOLVED.

I think the problem is that I used the "at" symbol in my post (SHIFT-2) ... referring to my battery being at 100% ... you saw the symbol as a "link" I guess.

That's it, no special characters. It happens to me because I have a habit of wanting to put "faces" and special symbols and it fails.

It also encourages proper grammar and full sentences. Asking a question with shorthand can cause confusion or the asker not providing enough information to start trying to answer any questions. It seems like asking a proper question is a dying art.
