Hi getemmurph and welcome to ECF!
My apologies for the deletes, but you are not allowed to spam for post count (senseless posts, ie: "post #3 post #3"). I would have PM'd you, but you don't yet have that available to you, so I was waiting for you to post somewhere like here so I could let you know what was happening.
So your 5 posts must be real posts, which can simply be engaging in current threads, they don't have to be new threads. Browse through and find interesting topics, and contribute, and you'll have 5 in no time!
This may help you as well:

Once you have your 5, your account will update at 25 past the hour.
I hope this helps!
