First of all, I'm sorry if this has already been answered. I checked the FAQs but perhaps I missed something. I think I'm at around -7 now since I rated a user. This has happened because my forum became more popular than I expected when I signed up. As such, I received an alert about the -10 and my forum being disabled. I signed up at the portal forum sometime around 24 hours ago. Now I'm approved and will start posting on other forums. I hope that my own forum will be activated again soon too. Thanks.
You will need to manually re-enable your forum, but you can't do that until your balance goes above 0.
One other question. To help me manage my forum better I could probably get a staff member to write some Postloop posts; one who is a quality poster, obviously. They could create an account on said forums and I could subscribe myself without the staff using my Postloop account. However, I'm not sure this is okay, hence why I am asking you.
