Read the Original Post of this thread, you'll know how to get yourself 'unblocked'.

That's not going to happen until you read post #1 on this thread, and understand the process explained there.
As you may notice I am a new member, so I did not know about the copy and paste issue. I was applying for a couple of jobs, I was pasting the same cv kind of thing, I mean who'd rewrite the same thing each time he/she finds a job to apply for. So, may you please unblock me.

Why don't you create a CV in the "jobs" section of the country where you want to find a job?
JOBS section is right at the top on the menu bar.
To get unblocked, you have to read post #1 on this thread and understand what you need to do.
Wish it could be unlock soon...

Sitting around wishing will get you nowhere.
It will "unblock soon" only if you read and understand post #1 on this thread.
Then participate on various sections of the forum with topical and informative posts.
Please consider my intention to "SPAM" a few people. I would like to send multiple people the same message/question. I have done a search on this site for South Africans who are planning to move to Chile and I would like to introduce myself to them as I to am a South African that would like to relocate to Chile. I would like to send this "greeting" massage to all South Africans as I do not know how many of them are still active and thus I would like to send this generic massage to all of them.
Thank you in advance.

You can introduce yourself on the Chile forum and you'll get better and much more responses than on an unsolicited pm.
Julien wrote:Hi,
in order to ensure quality to our users, and to considerably reduce the number of spam sent by private messages, we decided to set up a few new rules.
But we'll start with a few explanations.
Our definition of spam ?
Unsolicited emails or private messages.
How we detect spam ?
90% of spam is sent by new users
90% of spam are "copy and paste messages"
Please, please...
Don't send the same message to several users without taking the time to explain us how we could help you on the forum.
If you are a new user and if you post more than 5 copy and paste messages, your private message system gets blocked.
Stop asking us to unlock your PM system
You can unblock your private message system by yourself. How can you do that ?
Please take the time to present yourself on the forum, to participate to a few discussions (with real answers), and your private message system will be unlocked. That's it !

Maybe if you post in your chosen country you will get a better response?

Another one who has not taken the time to read and understand the very first post on this thread.
Until you do so you will never have your system activated.
The key word is PARTICIPATION
kelbasit wrote:I am not trying to do spam I am just trying to contact members about the apartments they have
You want to hear from others about their accommodations. Don't you?
Why not create a new thread on the forum and let others share their experience and opinions?
No need to send copy-pasted PMs to everyone for that.

You are off topic.....
As you are a new member from Vietnam I suggest you open a new thread on that section of the forum.
By doing so this will then count towards having you message system activated as explained in post #1 on this thread here.
Ricky39 wrote:Looking for new friends to go out or after work meeting...
You have posted on the wrong section of the forum.
As you are in France you should post there.
Reason : Off-Topic
Thanks for that!Dianorah18 wrote:I do not speak Vietnamese, and my English is not very good. Copy and paste! I'm sorry, they can unlock. I understand
The language of this forum is ENGLISH so it does not matter where you post.
Only you can activate your message system by posting on other sections of the forum. The posts need to be informative and of interest.
Allanur wrote:Hello I was applying for the jons in Vietnam. I didnt realized that copy pasting is prohibited. Can you please help me out?
You are the only one who can activate your message system by posting on other sections of the forum. The posts need to be of interest, no silly one line posts.
The more times you post the larger the capacity of you message inbox becomes.
Read post #1 on this thread.
Have a nice day!
