Does it work now? There was an edit to that thread in the moderator queue (which I now have approved), and I'm wondering if maybe the forum software does something weird like not letting you view the thread while there's an edit pending...

You literally posted to that very thread just a few hours ago. How do you not have access to it?

Please remember you are under moderation so there may be a time delay before your new posts or edits appear.

The edit they made to the original post was made after that. That's why I theorized that maybe that edit was what locked them out. (The edit showed up the same way as an entirely new thread in the moderation interface.)

Hmm... There was an oversight for Group Permissions for the Restricted Group, qashto. I believe you could receive PMs but not send them. I think we initially did not want people to abuse PMs if they were placed in the Restricted Group, but it doesn't make sense to not be able to communicate directly with Forum Stuff (e.g. not everyone might read a thread like this, and not every member of Forum Staff can be emailed). So PMs should work for you now. Let me know if that is not the case, maybe send me one as a test if you want.
