Sorry, the exact numbers are 'Company Private', but I think you get the idea. I've overturned infractions that I have given people 3 times in the last 4 years and thousands of infractions I have given.

Well I hope you get it figured out man. I've been here awhile so I don't remember what all you need other than 50 posts and maybe a grace period or something. Good Luck and please try to understand.

The process is automated, vBulletin will auto-update the account in usually 10 minutes to a few hours, depends on the workload of the site.

Thanks for the quick answer. As for the newbies, don't mistake the Admin's firmness for cockiness or anything else. It's tough to manage all of this crap and I wouldn't want the responsibility.....only the BIG AVATAR......haha

I do not want to come off as disrespectful or anything but the current post limit is kind of difficult to get to because as a new Evo owner I dont really have anything to contribute to forums due to lack of knowledge on the subject even though I have been trying. At the same time though, I've been wanting to sell some of the aftermarket parts that came on my car before school starts again but I cannot do that because of the low post count so Im kinda stuck.

Then we really don't want to buy those types of parts from someone who knows so little about the subject, and with very little to contribute to the site.

Not trying to be rude, but you've got to see the idea behind the 50 post rule. We don't want you posting things for sale that you know nothing about...

You can try ebay or craigslist though...

wonder if there is a way to allow people to view and post in section off of there join date as opposed to a post count? this way the post count could just be removed.

alot of people get pissy over "I have more post than you" i don't worry about a count on how many times ive posted my opinion. if it is a real big deal id just drop them off i have seen it on a lot of sites.

and then again ive seen people with a million posts cry they dont have that superficial post count anymore..

I feel like some of the people that are in a rush to get 50 posts and sell something usually turn out to be dishonest people.

Sorry bro but the 50 post count is needed.

i understand what you guys are saying about the 50 post count thing, but it would be nice if there were an exception to some people. I have bought an ev09mr off of here like 5 months ago and i browse this site all the time. I am currently contemplating between another evo 9 or an STI and sometimes it makes it hard to buy stuff when all i can do is pm. Other than that, it's a great site and i'm on here every single day!!

I know i dont have a sales rating, but i bought wartownracer 's car. And if the admins checked out his feedback they will see that i left him feedback!
