Can a mod help me out?

Thanks

Derek

 

apparently you have to have 10 posts before you can see pics.,,

its a real pain when you are here just to learn and dont have much to say...........

 

That is a bit sucky, i wonder if this post counts

 

yes, this post counts

 

I've upgraded you both to full access!

 

Now thats service for you , Thanks JimC64, i look forward to looking at the pics

Derek

 

I would like access as well.

That said, why does this forum do this when others do not? I'm sure many people who don't learn this "secret" try the forum a few times and then give up because they think it doesn't work.

I guess another way to do this is to make 10 useless posts, but all that will do is plug the forum with junk posts.

 

Well I guess I need to make a few more post my self.

 

i find the 10 post rule kinda silly.

yes it eliminates lurkers who just wanna lurk the pages.....but it also creates post-******...that turn into lurkers lol

 

I had gleaned that you had to make some post before you could have full access but had never seen what the number was until now.

 

although posting in the RIGHT SECTION would be a good rule to inforce

sorry for the double post, i cant edit my posts yet, i guess its another XX post count rule

 

Hey new guys, no need to bash the admin policies, we've been here for years, you've been around for days...it works, and until something better comes along that is more effective, it will remain in place.

Please read the new member sticky in my sig line for more details guys. thanks for understanding.

 

Your response is a bit arrogant, but lets ignore that for a moment. When I signed on to the forum I never saw the information in your personal sticky, so if you’re going to use such a policy at least tell new members about it when they sign on. Put that info in the new member e-mail. Also, when we try to look at a picture all we get is a stock message that doesn’t even have an admin link on it.

 

Tony, not trying to be arrogant by any means, but all you're doing is stirring the you proverbial 'pot'. This is how this forum operates.

It's not a personal sticky, it's a link in my signature to try to get more people exposed to the thread that just happens to be right there, at the top of the New Member forums. This next statement may sound critical (but here goes), if you would have gone to the new member area after joining to start your own 'intro' thread or to see what this specific section of the forum may offer 'new' members, more than likely you would have seen it.



We've just started exploring the link to this sticky thread in our registration emails. It will definitely help get people to the area where they can read it more easily.

But, just as the new 'legit' members can be assisted by this link to our restrictions, the spammers will also easily find this information, and as such, could post 10x and begin the spamming through the forum threads/posts AND personal messaging that you were not around during this time. Trust me, this small, hopefully temporary, inconvenience is worth it. So, we must be cautious.

 

h20boy, FYI I never went to the "New Member Area" because I have an X-Type so I found the X-Type forum on Google and registered. I've never looked anywhere else because I don't need to. If you want new members to see that sticky you have to put in the forum and not two levels up.

 

h20's not been arrogant at all . He just tries to simplify the situation .
Thanks for your recommendation on the e-mail notification as well .
Since you haven't dropped by New Member Forums , you can check this thread below and post your message . Our Admin wil gladly to remove all the restrictions
Thanks

Its not just image links but anything, i cant even look or edit my own profile to see how many posts. I must admit ive taken more from the forum than ive given but i visit every day.

 

Thank you, im very grateful, to be able to see the images.

 

I think it keeps away some casual people and kids that just like to surf sites like this.
