When Can I Post URLs?

Hello!
I'm new to this forum, but have been playing SFP for a good while. I was trying to make a post to request neighbors, but I got a message saying I couldn't post any URLs. I've tried looking through the forum rules, but couldn't find out how long, or how many posts I must make before being able to post a URL. So, how long, or how many posts must I make before being able to make a post containing a URL?

Kind Regards,
siouxdax

If you've read the rules, you'd know the answer:

(Including advertising and invites for FB groups/pages, twitter-follows, instagram, tumblr, youtube subscribes, and other "services".) New Users posting spam will be warned or banned (depending the spam content) and their post(s) removed, others will be warned. Posting URLs is blocked for new users to prevent spammers posting links and their posts require approval by a moderator. Once the required amount of posts (currently three) is reached, this block is lifted. Any attempts to circumvent this block to post "spam" URLs (signature or otherwise) will result in a ban.
I also moved this post to the General forum as it's not related to SFP but about the functionality of the forum.

Obviously your post to get Facebook friends is not considered spam.
