I understand that I need 100 posts to sell and I know no replies if you're no going to buy.... Haven't broken either rule. But for some reason I can't view any for sale items any longer. I keep getting a pop up saying I need 100 post to view the item. What gives? How am I supposed to grow my Polk collection if I can't buy?

    And posting in the forum testing area doesn't add to your count. Just sayin'...

    No loser status attached to post count, just shows a certain level of community involvement.

    Maybe so, but we don't advertise that info. Keeping the FM on the up and up is very important around here and I'll be behind any rule changes to keep it that way.

    For those who are curious keep moving, that's what I'm doing. For those teat whining about the change Polk could have put some real teeth in this and made it a 250 or higher post count. Maybe a 6 month probation from your join date.

    This forum faced the possibility of being shut down awhile back so I'm just happy that it still exists.

    Heck, at my rate I'll have 100 posts by 2017 and that's fine. So any rule changes Polk feels necessary to keep this community chugging along is fine too.

    The Forum Testing Area doesn't add to your post count either.

    You read a few posts a few times a week, you make a few posts. 100 posts. What is that, like 2-3 months or less? Even if you don't post much. Frankly, I can't see how you can post less, there must be at least a few Polkies that get on your nerves, no? lol

    Are you gonna give those "guys" a pass?

    To go through all the work to prohibit members with less than 100 posts from viewing the 4-sale forums seems kind of redundant when you dont limit spammers from posting links to harmful websites ? Seems like reverse paranoia to me. :lol: At least the priorities are straight. :cool:

    Spam is handled here just fine and removed as soon as a moderator see it. Sorry, for the inconvenience.
