Have just joined, wanting to ask a question in Geekzone Forum but cannot see how to do a new post in that Forum.

Some of the forums have a button to create a new post, but many do not.

What am I missing?

thanks, Peter

Some forums are restricted until you have a number of posts elsewhere on the site.

Welcome to geekzone.

I'd suspect your hitting some sort of anti spam measure.

@Peter12345 Are you trying to post in the offers and wanted forum? As you need to have a min number of previous posts before you can create posts there. And maybe reply to existing ones.

No - in the 'Geekzone' forum

Cloud spending continues to surge globally, but most organisations haven’t made the changes necessary to maximise the value and cost-efficiency benefits of their cloud investments. Download the whitepaper From Overspend to Advantage now.

One the mods moved the topic to the Geekzone sub-forum.

Limits on specific sub-forums is an anti-spam measure as mentioned by other users.
