> [@layla56852\_177918](#): > > is it possible to send messages if you have a new account? I don’t remember if there’s a cool down time for that or not…click on somebody’s circle, then message will appear in the upper right hand corner of the box that opens up (red button). If that’s not there, then you’re probably still in a new account cool down. ---
