| Jan 8, 2014 at 19:01 | comment | added | Justin | @pfc To suggest an edit, click on the "edit" link below the tags (should be right next to "share"). A different interface will open up; similar to when you are asking a question. Make your edits in the text editor, add an edit description, and submit it. | |
| Jan 8, 2014 at 18:48 | comment | added | pfc | @RobertHarvey I do have access to answering my own question, but this still seems silly to be unable to answer other people's questions. Do users request the minimum rep required to answer a question? | |
| Jan 8, 2014 at 18:40 | comment | added | Robert Harvey | Try posting an answer below. | |
| Jan 8, 2014 at 18:39 | comment | added | pfc | @RobertHarvey This makes sense, though seems perhaps only certain questions are unanswerable by new users, but it doesn't give you a reason or explanation. | |
| Jan 8, 2014 at 18:32 | comment | added | Robert Harvey | It sounds like you may be confusing comments with answers. Anyone can post an answer. In bootstrap mode, the requirement for posting comments on posts other than yours might actually be 5 rep. | |
| Jan 8, 2014 at 18:30 | comment | added | pfc | @RobertHarvey: I've tried to answer some questions as well as simply comment so suggest a solution which also told me I required 5 rep. Is this only for certain questions? Also, is "suggesting an edit" different than adding a comment with suggestions? | |
| Jan 8, 2014 at 18:27 | comment | added | Robert Harvey | I very much doubt that you need 5 rep to post an answer, but if that's really the case, fix up three posts by suggesting useful edits that are accepted by the community, and you'll get the 5 points that you need. You'll need 50 reputation points to post comments. | |
| Jan 8, 2014 at 18:25 | comment | added | ProgramFOX | Strange, with 1 rep you should be able to post answers. Yes, you should have posted this on Meta, but you need 5 points for that, so I voted to migrate to Meta. | |
