Hello and welcome! We're glad you are here and hope you'll not feel shy and continue asking for help if you need it!
Yes, it's true -- you need 15 posts, after which that part of the forum where the newer chapters are posted for download will become visible. I assume that since you have more than 15 posts now, Weirdguy, you have found that section by now -- but if not, you should try logging out and then logging in again. Sometimes it won't appear until after you do that. Otherwise, it's automatic!
Good to have you both on board!
