Hi debrakay. You ask 1) How long do I have to wait to post a comment on a thread/topic? According to my information within the last 24 hours you have posted 25 times on threads, 4 or 5 of which you started, so you haven't had to wait very long. 4) What and who determines the "Controversial" topics are and why do I have to wait until I have made over 100 comments elsewhere to be able to post on a Controversial topic. A User can post in Controversial Topics if they so choose once approved by staff, or their thread can be moved there if a staff member decides it should be there. This is what you agree to under the Terms of Service. The 100 posts elsewhere requirement is a safeguard against instant friction from those whose sole purpose in posting is to be obnoxious rather than to integrate and participate in worthwhile fellowship. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen much action in the Controversial forum. When I joined, I can't remember having to wait long to do anything I wanted to do, but that was quite some while ago. If you find some interesting retirement hobbies let me know. You might try APBA computer (BBW) baseball. That's a fun hobby. And I'm teaching myself to play piano again (after about a 55-year absence), and I'm trying to improve my singing and guitar playing, and I spend several hours at the church each Monday helping with maintenance chores and sing in the church choir. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize it's been several hours since you asked these, but it's good to reply because those reading may have the same question. You will not have to wait long after the first three initial posts. Once you have the three posts you can comment in most of the areas of worthy. The purpose of the wait period for the first few posts is to determine if the first few posts are automated (robot post) or from a spammer. You'll find that there is some posting restrictions in some areas. The purpose of the posting restrictions is so that we can get to know you as some of the restricted areas are more personal in nature. It will be awhile before you can have access. Topics in the controversial forum can get too heavily debated to the point that moderation is needed. 100 posts gives everyone time to get to know you first. click on the link below to browse the tech forum. You will find instructions and rules regarding photos and images there. https://www.worthychristianforums.com/forum/132-tech-lounge/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These contain valuable and much needed information that is often overlooked or neglected @Willa Do you have any advice or wisdom on inserting photos into a post? I have looked and looked at the different technical help threads and have even written to @George see if he can explain it to me. I do not have the little paperclip that others have mentioned and I am not an illiterate computer operator. If it's a matter of not having enough posts credited to my account that is all I need to know. I am getting closer to my 100 count!! Thank you!
