No.  You only need to have 1 post to be able to send a PM.

It took me a long time to find the newbie section since most of my reading was done elsewhere in the forums. When I finally needed to post a question I had logged nearly 4 hours but had no posts. I didn't know where to start. Fortunately I stumbled on the newbie threads, but I nearly skipped over because I no longer felt like a noob.

Either way, it makes sense in a forum like this.

But it is very annoying.
Fortunately I'm leaving newbie jail now ;)

Then you have no need to post outside the Newbie Forum.
