    Do I really have to post 50x before I could inquire about buying something?

    50 posts is only for selling, but tbh it seems like the forums aren't really moderated these days.

    The forum layout is also wayyy out of date, the ih8mud forums use the latest BBB forum coding and tacomaworld is at least 10 years old. So may features in the new updated site. The only caveat is the site is down a day or longer to get it all configured.

    Oh look, another mod....

    Correction, you have to have 50 posts AND be an active member for 30 days before you can sell something. It doesn't state it in the rules/guidelines (I checked them twice). However, when I went to post something for sale, it wouldn't allow me.

    I reached out to one of the Moderators and he told me "You have to wait 30 days". I'm okay with that, I just wish it was posted somewhere. Maybe it is and I missed it?

    The 30 day requirement is not listed on the BST rules. Mods should add it if that’s correct. Unwritten rules lead to unnecessary bans and can result in malicious enforcement. o_O
    Also if posts in the the new member forum don’t count toward the required 50 posts that should be stated in the BST rules as well to ensure new members are aware.

    I agree, the mods should add it. I even told the mod that when I emailed him "Hey, the rules don't say 30 days, just 50 posts". He said he would look into it and try to update it, but it was 30 days.

    buying,no. selling,yes

    why do you say that? we're here. every day.
    yes,we have nothing better to do. just trying to protect members from getting scammed. caught a couple more scams this week alone.
    and BTW.... we're all volunteers. staff doesn't get paid here. we all have jobs and families and hobbies and lives but we're here every day in our free time

    ummm.... no. Bob revamped 5 years ago? and the switch happened all behind the scenes over the course of a month or more - lots of testing to make sure things were going to migrate correctly. but when the switch over went live I remember it happening quick on the public side of things

    folks without 50 can reply to existing threads. just cant make their own
    personally i'd be a little skeptical of someone who only contacted me privately to buy or sell something. actually, thats how a lot of the scammers lately have gotten to people. everything handled through pm's and we can't see any of it. like they're intentionally flying under the radar.

    When you generally do things right, people won’t be sure you’ve done anything at all.
