Veristek

Which section of the page is that button supposed to be located in? When I go to the forum page, there's the big GalCiv3 graphic at the top. Then under that, "Welcome Veristek" (my name) and "sign out | options" and stuff like "Account | Subscriptions | My Posts | Private Messages" etc. Under that I see 3 links, "Home", "GalCiv 3", and "GalCiv3 Support". Under that is the Pinned Posts section, and under that is Recently Active Posts. I'm not seeing "Create Post" anywhere

Hey guys, Apologies for hijacking this thread, but I haven't been to these forums in many years. I just got GalCiv3 and Crusade and the latest patch (2.3) and cannot even get the game to start. I came back to these forums, but cannot seem to find where to create "new thread" to describe my problem in detail. Was "create new topic" disabled or the button / how-to moved elsewhere? Please let me know so I can create the thread and not have to hijack threads.
