nismo kid Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 For some reason I cant post in the Parts For Sale section. I'm not trying to edit anyones post or anything. I have been a member since 06 and never had any problems. Any ideas guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tfreer85 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Did you read the rules? HybridZ Classifieds Rules 1. To post an ad in the "Parts For Sale section", you must have been a member of HybridZ for a minimum of 30 days AND have 40 posts to your credit. 2. Use of the Classifieds is limited to private individuals only. Commercial advertising is not permitted. 3. This is for selling parts/product, but please keep posts to a PG-13 nature. 4. Please be descriptive in your ad title. Ad titles such as “Cleaning out shed!”, “Misc parts!”, “Parts Wanted!” “Looking for!” are too vague and will be deleted. 5. When selling an item, you MUST publicly state your asking price and location, or your post will be deleted. 6. No Bidding for items - HybridZ is not an auction site. If a seller posts a fixed price they must sell at that price and not turn the sale into a bidding contest. If a seller posts a link to an auction site the auction must be conducted on that site. 7. HybridZ Classifieds are used to buy parts/product. NOT to tell sellers you can get it cheaper somewhere else. You can place a lower offer to the seller, but statements of "being over price" will not be tolerated. 8. The administrators of HybridZ.org take no responsibility for the conduct of members on this forum. 9. For security reasons, we strongly recommend that you use PayPal when buying parts from private individuals online. 10. If you place an ad and find later that it has disappeared you can safely assume that you violated one of the above rules. No notification will be given. 11. Please give your ads at least 5 days between bumps. Frequent bumping such as every day will get your ad deleted! 12. After your item/s have sold, please close your ad.

nismo kid Posted August 26, 2009 Author Share Posted August 26, 2009 hell if you click on my name and then go to all stats I have more than 40 posts. But when you look on the left in a thread anywhere it caims I only have 17. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drax240z Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 The 40 post rule only applies to the parts for sale forum, not the parts wanted, cars wanted or the cars for sale forums. This is a new rule as of about 3 months ago, because we got tired of dealing with complaints from people being ripped off on parts sales. Most of those issues were due to those that weren't regulars here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nismo kid Posted August 26, 2009 Author Share Posted August 26, 2009 So what can i do in this case? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S30TRBO Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Well, now that the rules have changed 3 months ago as Drax stated anything you did prior to the rule change (posting in classified section) is no longer allowed until you have 40 posts. Keep in mind, posting in Non Tech Forum and replying in Classified Forum does not add to your post count. Go ahead and when you have free time contribute to this site and you’ll have 23 posts in no time. Sorry it’s the law of the hybridz land.

johnc Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 So what can i do in this case? Contribute 23 more technical posts to the site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valmont Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 does every reply to a thread constitute a post, or only new threads posted? No intention of a hijack, but my 'post' number under my name, and actually number of posts have always had a disparity - and I rarely post in the non tech forums.

johnc Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Actually, I don't know the specifics on what forum posts are counted towards a member's total post count. I'll ask Dan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phlebmaster Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 It is simple. Because of the new rules, any posts you had in the non-tech or classified sections no longer count toward your post count. That is why you have less posts indicated in your profile.

johnc Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 From SuperDan: Which forum posts DO NOT count towards a member's total post count? All Forums in the "Other" category. All Forums in the "General" category except "Members Projects" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators BRAAP Posted September 1, 2009 Administrators Share Posted September 1, 2009 (edited) All better now lol Not so fast hot rod! Even after someone mentioned the rules for posting parts for sale, as soon as you made that minimum post count, you violated those rules in all of your ads, which are now gone... Bumpity bump bump...
