Cant' post in Feedback & Announcements forums

In summary, there seems to be a problem with the Feedback & Announcements forum where contributors' posts are getting thrown into a moderation queue. This may be the reason why the person is unable to start a new thread in that forum. It has been reported to the administrator and is being looked into.

I can't seem to post in the Feedback & Announcements forum. I've tried a few other forums and they seem to work just fine. By posting I mean to start a new thread.

ranger, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

There is some problem with the feedback forum, which means that contributors' posts get thrown into the moderation queue there. This problem may be the reason you can't seem to start a new thread in feedback. Greg is on the case!

I've moved this to feedback for you.

As cristo mentioned, there is some bug that was introduced with the upgrade in which Contributors have a problem posting in Feedback. Being HH or SA apparently gets one around that.
