Classifieds

[hyperlogos]

I want to buy stuff, not sell stuff. But I don't have 30 posts. The reason for hiding the classified forums is supposed to be to prevent selling by non-members. But I want to buy stuff, and I can't do that either.


Does the forum software not let you deny posting to forums users can see or what?

Buy a star, you can look and buy all you want without 30 posts, $20 for a year.

I think the 30 post requirement also keeps people from signing up to buy something, screwing the seller over and disappearing. Also give the new user a chance to hang out, get to know people and hopefully, contribute to the community. My .02

"bots" is not an explanation


If the explanation is bots posting stuff then make it so you can read those fora but not post to them


If the explanation is bots reading stuff, why is that a problem?

Every post to the Classifieds also needs to be approved. I "posted" one several months ago and I guess it never got approved, because the thread never showed up, and I ended selling the parts on another forum. <shrug>

You've got answers about how it works, those are the forum rules, I didn't make the rules, but had to follow the rules years ago when I joined up, just as everyone else did.
