Its for your own protection guys and gals, period.

 

im just telling and mmm what about all the BUMPS arent they spam

 

Thank you. I know it's inconvenient, I know it may seem arbitrary, but it really is for the protection of our members. Folks, please check out our "Scam Alert" thread to see why we do this.

 

I don't know why people get soo upset about the rules. If you want instant "parts" or even a car. goo to ebay or buy it new. Most people post their for sale items on ebay or other places anyways. SASD: are you lobbying to have member length be longer too? Ex. need to be a member for a year and 100 posts.

 

well im not upset about the rules, and i know if someone want to get parts asap can go to a store. that is what i do. im just angry because my posts were deleted but what can i do i dont have anything against that rule,.

 

well there must have been a legitimate reason why your posts got deleted. My posts have never been deleted. except once. haha. for a good reason.

 

A fellow Staff member saw this thread and suggested 6 months and 100 posts. I agree with it because it not only lets the forum get to know a member, but we also get to log IP's and build a base of information should it be needed to prosecute a scammer. Also, scammers usually want the instant deal, not to wait for posts or time to do their deeds. This isn't always true, but I'd like to throw up as many obstacles as I can against scammers yet keep this forum open to legit users. It's not an easy balance to keep, but we do try.

I agree with 6 months + 100 posts, 50 and no time limit is just inviting scammers here.

There actually is a time limit in place right now, but it's only 30 days.
