• Hey Guest,

    As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. The UK and OFCOM has singled out this community and have been focusing its censorship efforts here. It takes a good amount of resources to maintain the infrastructure for our community and to resist this censorship. We would appreciate any and all donations.

It would be helpful if the Search function was available to new members as it would cut down on repetitive posts for things that may have been asked and answered before. I have a question that I'm a little hesitant to ask as it may have already been asked and answered, so being able to search if there are already threads or posts about this would be very helpful.
I also strongly feel the same. And the condition that a certain numbers of contributions is needed for search bar to appear is not mentioned in the Rules and FAQs forum, which troubled me a lot until I got answer in this thread and I am sure it troubles other new members too. I don't think there is a good reason to hide the search bar.

There's obviously a reason to why the search function isn't available straight away.. maybe its to do with new members not been able to find the methods or something first i dont know..

There are posts related to CTB all over SS so hiding search bar to restrict new members from accessing method is not helpful. Also as he/she said, hiding search contributes to repetition of threads, which should not happen.

Hey, I was just wondering if I did something wrong, or if there's a certain amount of time that posts have to be moderated?

Staff can correct me if I'm wrong, but it is likely to slow bad actors and spammers from targeting specific users/topics/threads. Many forums use similar precautions to help protect the community.

Just join in the conversation on some threads and after some time and some posts you'll get access as long as you're not actively breaking the rules. If you honestly can't see yourself joining the discussions on various threads go to the off topic section and post in the many game threads to get your post count up. It's not hard and helps the site staff weed out those who shouldn't be here.

I agree with this, but I can somewhat understand why it's not now after reading a few different posts.
Here is some Google-fu that will help new members.
Type this into Google:
Site:www.sanctioned-suicide.net the words you want to search here
This will honestly work better than the sites search function anyway.
Wow, I feel stupid that I didn't even think to try this myself. Thank you so much! This is mega appreciated.

Not money. Just comments or join the chat room a few times and boom u r on. Its to show u aren't the press or some weirdo anti-suicide person.

First post made by your account and this is what you post?

You exhibit poor decorum....

What happen to forum etiquette....

But like the others have stated.

By contribute they mean make new topics and/or reply to existing topics/posts.

As to this.

IIRC NEW members can not access the chat box on the website.
They still need to unlock it :P In ways of contributions XD

I have a problem when editing my biography or any details in my profile, such as the title. No matter what I write, it says it might be spam and asks me to wait or contact a moderator. I searched but haven't seen anyone else asking about this issue

I know there is a very long thread for new members to introduce themselves. How am I supposed to find it as a brand new member if I don't have access to the search button and can't start a thread yet?

Same here but my take is this... if they won't make search available then they have to put up with my repeated questions. If I need an urgent answer, I'm gonna ask again n again n again. Tbh, life's too short not to have a search function.. grrrrr..

Fully agree with you.. Especially when I just need answers now! I'm new but like everyone, I have needs!!
