How do I make a status update?

Hi, 

How do I make a status update? 

I have seen references to it in various parts of my forum and also in these support areas but i can't find how to actually post a status?

1. Make sure that you have permissions

2. Enable this feature ( account settings => edit profile => enable status updates)

Then you should be able to post status updates on your profile and via the 'create new' menu

Unfortunately not w/o a mod.
