Mods - Old Member, High Heat, Low Posts - FS/FT Forum Access?

[Theta]

Question for the mods...

I've been around for a long while, but only post when necessary. Heatware is no problem, trading history back before 2000.

Point being, I don't have access to the FS/FT. I've read up on this, and apparently it takes 150 posts to qualify.

So... What to do? Post uselessly to just accumulate posts? Or have some members (such as myself) been allowed to trade with low post counts?

Just curious, not aiming to ruffle feathers. ;)

have to have 100 posts, forum rules

just help a few people out. 51 posts isnt much, it will go by faster than you think.

I'm sorry, but 100, no-spam, on topic and preferably no-chat (but hardware-related) posts are required to access Classfieds section on XS and there is no way around it.

We want members to contribute to this community first, show they can be helpful to others, gain respect first. Access to FS is a priviledge, not a given. You're halfway there and as long as you don't race to get 100 posts you will be there soon enough :)

Fair enough. I had to ask, though.

Rules change over time, and I'm assuming the rule has cut down on shady transactions, etc.

I'm sure I'll appreciate it once over the other side of the hill. :p:
