Thanks streblo. I just signed up today and couldn't PM. Looking to do a group buy. Hopefully I can PM now
I found my answer. I'm leaving my post here so that searching can find it.
Due to a mass of trolling, only established posters are able to post in non-newbie sections. You are considered "established" if you have spent 4 hours online and have made 5 posts.
If you have really good posts, you can post a request for preemptive whitelisting in the appropriate topic.
Also:
- You must have made one post in order to send PMs.
- You need 10 posts to put a link in your signature.
- You need 50 posts to put an image in your signature.
Note that it may take up to 10 minutes for your PM or posting permissions to be granted.

But sorry anyway that stupid posting, it's now all fine! 
Sorry for being newbie!
