That is a anti spam feature that was put in to keep new or just annoying people from going onto a server then spamming text to a zone or individuals. By default you need to reach level 10 to be able to talk in ooc or send tells.
You can bypass it by setting the karma field to 720 in the account table for your login. I think it can be turned off completely by setting Chat:EnableAntiSpam to false in the rule_values table.
