    Hi Everyone!

    Just bought my first Tacoma and I'm so stoked. It feels like such a huge upgrade from my old, beat up, 1995 Dodge Ram 2500 that's for sure. Excited to dig in more and learn about maintenance and mods and also put this thing to good use.

    I wasn't able to post on the Buy/Sell forum and a friend who's been active here said he also just ran into this problem. Something about having to post 50 times before I can post for real?

    Seems quite extreme -- has anyone else run into this problem? Any chance of it getting fixed?

    Thanks so much,
    Matt

    Welcome aboard. New members must have 50 posts before posting for sale. Lots of new members do it anyway and get banned FAST.

    Hey! I have lurked on this site for years with no reason to post and now I am trying to post something for sale. I have over 100 posts and I just want to make sure I do everything properly and according to the rules. Anyone have any suggestions on how to post for sale?

    Fluffing of post count is noticed, it’s gets deleted, and then you’re at risk for a ban.

    We have rules to prevent scamming and also prevents the site from turning into craigslist. This is a community, not a for sale forum.

    Welcome! Just be a good member, engage in conversation, ask questions about stuff you don't know, try to make some internet friends, and you'll be over 50 posts before long. Maybe in the meantime you'll decide you actually like the soft topper!

    I think just some of my posts weren’t involved enough. I read the buy/sell rules and it makes sense now

    Tacoma World is not Craigslist, and that's why you must have at least 50 legit posts before can list something in the BST section.
