The 5 post rule is there to prevent unregistered suppliers and in general anyone that would spam the forum as is the case with many of the other forums that I have been part of. If you are here for any length of time, you'll be glad that those rules are in place and that the moderators here are some of the best.
If the problem is with posting outside the new members forum even though you have 7 posts, you might try again a little later. I believe that I read it could take up to an hour for the changes to be made to an account.
Keep in mind that after you make your 5 posts you may have to wait up to an hour. I'm not sure exactly how long the time period is, but it's not longer than an hour.
The engine is alive but not held in a rules, I have 7 messages, then I will reload page, sign up again, and I could write, but this not posted in general rules
This rule along with a few more keep this home clean. Don't you all love a clean house. No bad language..not even a hint of it. Thank you mods for creating this wonderful place and keeping it clean and spam free.
As pretty much everyone else said, its here to stop spammers and also to make sure new members who are unsure of certain things to post in the right section as sometimes they may be tempted to post in general discussion
