hey what did you do? i posted 5 posts and its been 6 days?

Jon · 26-11-07, 06:21 AM

The 5 days includes the time when you joined (as allready stated)

Looking at the "usefullness" of your posts though im not so sure if I should be removing the access?

I can see why this system is in place, but it does encourage new members to make posts that aren't that useful, as if they don't they won't get access to the trading forum. That's much better than getting loads of spam in the trading forum though.

Hi Jon,

Can you tell why i cannot access the trade section please? I have been a member for longer than 5 days and i have posted several comments.

Thanks, I only need one more referal for my first free item!

Apparantly that was your 4th post. You need 5 "meaningful" posts before you can access the trading site.

claire80 · 27-11-07, 03:47 PM

you havent made the required amount of posts , that dont mean to go and post anything though the posts are supposed to be meaningful ok.

Edit: that darn fox beat me to it

joewarne · 27-11-07, 04:00 PM

It has to be fully 5 days, so it depends what time that you joined 5 days ago.

I'm sure Jon will get round to it later.

Jon · 27-11-07, 05:03 PM

the calculations are based on the time you joined as well as the date

rainbow · 27-11-07, 06:19 PM

So Jon, This is my 5th post!

E = mc2

Is that meaningful enough?
