Post count to classifieds changed to 5?

[Westech]

Did someone change the post count back down? I see a member with one post in the forum is able to post to the classifieds.
Really it does not bother me and I like seeing new things posted and good deals.. but it seams the rules change around here like the weather.

Still says 100 in the rules.

maybe he had 5 posts and and created the ad before the rule change? then deleted 4 of the posts? or 4 of his posts were in a thread that got deleted?

WTB MEP-004a parts - Steel Soldiers::Military Vehicles Supersite

WARN M8274 8000 Lb Self recovery winch - Steel Soldiers::Military Vehicles Supersite

ect ect ect ect.......there are at least 15 more

Am i wrong on this? Am I missing something?

Like I said... I really don't care. I am NOT singling a couple members. It seams like the rules change by the week. I think someone needs to set the rules and stick by it.

the first link is dead but the other two are by members that have been around for a few years. looks like although there post count is low that perhaps an exception was made, likely based on the length of membership.

Looks like al were older members with low post count, might have gotten special ok, though would be good to let us know that this is happening

 

[Westech]

Hey and that is find with me... but then why have the 100 rule and not just do a time of membership thing.
I am just trying to get clear on what the heck is going on here.

One could always quote Eddie Murphy, "its MY house, if you don't like it, get the F-out".

Ol' Eddie always made me laugh, & I got a chuckle out of it this time.

Those were listed before the change and listed to automatically repost at expire date. Notice the 10/2010 reply in the first thread.

In one of the threads where I made a recommendation, I was told by an Admin,
"No back seat drivers wanted."

I can respect that.

I have a question on posting classifieds.

In the rules I read the part where you need 100 post to "Sell" in the classifieds. I may of missed it does the 100 rule apply to want to buy post or buying from a post that is in the classified forum. If you are under the 100 rule?

There are some adds with 0 or 1 post with NEW items posted NOT RENEWED, another is a company from the PHILIPENES, no post ever, just 6 to 10 FS adds all the time

They been in there for at least a year

"They been in there for at least a year "

The hemtt wheel add is not a OLD, RENEWED add, There are others, If a add is rolled over, the same part should be the sameone started with not a NEW part. NEW adds would fall into the new rules like all the other members that fell into 100 rule do to no fault of there own.

Also I thought NO comerical adds, what about the Philipene co.

Now everybody knows my view on the 100 rule, BUT if THAT is the RULE, that is the RULE, it can't only be PARTLY ENFORCED, if it is good for one, should be good for ALL

Ron,

I have brought numerous classified ads to the attention of Chris (steelsoldiers) over the past year. I finally got tired of seeing the same ads (that should not be there) in the classifieds over and over again with nothing being done.

I feel your pain and frustration.
