Not sure about the 30 day thing, But I do know you do have to have 30 post. Not cool at all, but rules are rules.

As a mod on another site, I can see why you have a minimum post limit for the "For Sale" stuff, but if a newbie wants to come over here and buy something, you really don't have anything to lose. They have to send the money first before they get the item they want. People like me that haven't fully gotten into rock crawling, and are looking for a place to start, you have just shut the door in our faces, and potentially lost some business for your other members.

i cant understand why we still cant view as surely a sale has nothing to do with the site it is between 2 people.
nobody wants to see others ripped off but this can happen anywhere and does not reflect on the site.
what is to stop people getting there 30+ posts allready before this was enforced and can still go round ripping people off.
all this is doing is making newbies look elsewhere and is loosing support for this site.

regards

If a person that is planning on ripping someone off can view those sections, they still have that opportunity to rip someone off. You can't post there but you'd still be able to send a PM. This way, people have to post, posting will allow members to see how they act and get to know something about them before having to do business with them.

And yes, it does reflect on the site. Would you want to shop at a grocery or other type of store that constantly gets reports of people getting ripped off?

i get what you are saying but that can happen anytime and is down to the seller not the site.
i think all this will do is get a load of thats cool,looks good posts and anything else that can get people the 30 posts.
it is good that you are trying to sort this problem as i know what it is like to be scammed even though it was only a small amount it still hurts.

i feel a bit agrieved with this decsion after being a member since 2005 but had never found the neeed to add replies to things(wow looks good) that dont dont need it just to get posts.

just a whinge.

keep up the good work i will get there eventually(30 posts)

regards

Sounds like a good place for you. No one pulled your chain. Grow up. I've been on the site for a while, and I've seen the immature ones like you in many different places. You'd fit in perfectly at Traxxas.com.

If a person get's scammed, then the person that did the scamming is the one that should have their privledges taken away. Just because someone has 30+ plus post doesn't automatically make them an "Honest" person that wouldn't scam anyone. It's a chance you take when you buy something through a forum. If people are that concerned with it, they should be buying through Ebay, so that when something goes wrong, they have a leg to stand on.

I don't see what the problem is, its 30 posts, you all are acting like its 300. If you can't come up with anything to say than you probably don't need to buy a bunch of parts, it will save you some money by having to reserch more before you can buy, if anything. If any of yall would put a third of the effort into reading and posting that you have put into bee-atching about stuff you would have 30 posts, its only 1 a day for the 30 day waiting period.
