Well, I understand the theory behind needing to post 30 times before commenting, but if you have someone that has ordered something from a poster it seems silly to not let them post. it seems to best way for the buyer to get hold of the seller. Is anyone else having this problem?

:confused:

    This isn't a problem...we ALL had to do this. If you purchase a WSO or whatever from someone on the WF then chances are you have a direct way of communicating with them in some form (email from paypal purchase etc.)
    They have their reasons for the rules that are here. The spam would get out of control without rules.

    Same thing happend to me. Bought a WSO and wanted to make a post in the thread and it did not let me do it.

    So, I went ahead and made some posts. It is actually a lot of fun.

    Hi,

    Go to the test forum and make the post you want to make. Come back here and post in this thread that you made the post and if it is an acceptable post I or someone else will PM the intended recipient to check the post in the test forum and give them a link to it.

    George Wright P.S. What I mean by acceptable is it goes by the rules. P.P.S, be sure to give the Warrior ID (name) of the recipient.

    I'm stuck in the same situation. I'm sure there is some logical reason for it. It just makes it difficult for new members like ourselves.

    Same for me - I saw an interesting offer from a seller in this forum, and I have problem contacting him. Perhaps I should try harder.

    I think one of the possibilities is try to reduce the amount of people commenting on WSOs in orfer to bash certain people.

    Ya pro-and-cons. No way to make it perfect so we just got to respect the rules.

    Sure is a logical reason. We don't need people signing up just to throw WSO's at us -- and we don't need people signing in just to try to discredit the person's WSO. You wouldn't like someone in competition with you coming into YOUR WSO simply to cause you problems. Why should people who don't want to be part of the community get community benefits? And what is the best way to avoid that from happening? Yep - post count limitations. Spammers and problem makers aren't going to stick around for thirty posts to do things they already know will get them banned.

    Gee, you lodge a complaint, and THEN say it is GREAT that you can complain! You are saying that, without the limit, their could be a flood on support requests(which this forum is NOT for), and possible libel(against the TOS for this system).
