I don't see this as really needed, but this is not good English. If any thing, it should be more like "participate more within this board's community'

I'd go for

participate more to board activities

That doesn't sound right either. If this does get reviewed for merging VSE looks to be the closest in providing the proper English for this.

The general purpose of the ticket is, that new users might be confused about what exactly "participating more" means. The idea is to explicitly state, that "participating more" means creating more posts. Thus, none of two corrections above sound sufficient to me.

How about
may need to participate more by posting in the forum to be able to use this feature.

As previously stated this is not proper English. You also don't participate to sth but participate in sth.

@VSEphpbb the idea behind this seems to be to actually tell people that they need to have more posts instead of being vague.

I'd recommend:
You may have just registered here and may need to participate more in discussions to be able to use this feature.
or possibly:
You may have just registered here and may need to participate more in topics to be able to use this feature.

Last questions: Shouldn't we maybe add this to 3.1.x, too? :)
In which case I'd appreciate a new PR against 3.1.x and not 3.2.x.

@Nicofuma Nicofuma added this to the 3.1.9 milestone Mar 25, 2016

I think it should be against 3.1.x
