What happened

[2tired]

I was writing a post to intro myself and when I hit submit, got a message saying I "can't post new messages to this board."  Maybe I took too long.  More later.

2tired,
  I'm sorry that happened to you!  Obviously, your post did go through on this try.   Don't give up; we want to get to know you.

Welcome 2tired, I sometimes get something similar if I take too long or I get a remark that someone posted in between. Try typing what you want to say in another text editor and then copy and paste it into the forum post box.
