was not sure whether this belongs here or on the Beginners board but just wanted to ask if it would be possible to mention the PM spam eliminator in the instructions for the SIT (or have I missed this).
The story is that I got quite excited today when I checked the SIT for the first time in a while and found not one, but two, new additions, one certain and one extremely probable for my family.
However, both are new members with NO POSTS, so I can't PM them so how can I get in touch? Clearly they have no posts to respond to so I can't get around it that way.
The certainty may well be someone that I know and have advised to join RootsChat so I will try to find out by more direct means if it is who I think it is but the other is more tantalising, could be the same situation or could be yet another line of my second cousins that i have not ye made contact with.
Any beginners who read this, it's great to see your interests on the SIT, but you won't get responses through the private message system until you make three forum posts. As longstanding members generally know this, we are quite happy for you to just make very general posts in the common room or on the beginners board to say hello or similar.
