There was a request in the Workplace Chatroom from a someone on Writers Beta to see if we could share some knowledge on a question. Myself not having used it before did not have an account so I created one and received the 100 rep association bonus. The question is protected so I would need to have at least 10 reputation to answer it but when I have gone to the question I am unable to answer it at all. There is no answer box...I double checked that you can use reputation gained from the association bonus and there is nothing in there about not being able to.
