When can I join in contests?

I was reading over the contest rules and couldn't figure out why I have "insufficient privileges to post" for contest entries... Is it because I'm soo new?

Moved to Site Feedback and Help.

There are no posting restrictions on new members. You should be able to post in contest threads as long as they're open. If the contest is over and the thread has been closed, you'll be unable to post in that thread.

Gosh maybe I need a coffee... I scrolled down and yeah... "Thread closed". Ha. Oops... I guess I just figured I needed "x" amount of posts because that's how the reddit guys seem to do it :/
Thanks for the quick reply!
