The race to 50

[daemon2525]

Well crap. I saw some posts about not being able to post in the classifieds until you get 50 posts. I get that. It's a great rule to avoid people who join only to sell stuff. To be honest I don't have anything to buy or sell. However it seems that you cannot PM anyone either.

It will let you PM. It just apparently does not go through. I PM'd a couple of folks that were VERY local and got no reply. I assumed that they
were ignoring me and put them on a list to not PM again. LOL!

I have been a member of rimfirecentral for a couple of months and have 31 posts. I don't post unless I think my answer is important.
I may never get to 50 on this forum. So.... To all the folks that I've PM'd , I take back the mean thoughts that I had.

And if you're ever driving around town and hear gunfire, stop and see if it's me!!!! I'd love to get together and shoot.


Woo Hoo, 1 post closer!

I too had this frustration. It is different, but there must have been issues. Check in daily, check the "new posts" and give your opinion. Good luck, and welcome. By the way, this forum has a more than healthy dose of intelligence and sarcasm. Sometimes its hard to tell the two apart...

LOL! We have a lot of people like you and I hope you stick around. Unfortunately, we've had some people post the site and members, so we had to put these measures in place.

Check my friends list. If any of those guys give you any advice, you can be sure half of it is wrong and the other 60% is inaccurate.

Hey don't sweat it, it'll happen, just don't go around spamming the board to get 50 or people will have a rather low opinion of you, and your going to catch some grief for this thread, there have been a LOT of guys posting threads whining about the 50 post rule. I know your not whining, but your still gonna get grief!

Well, at least you have the right attitude about it!

Please pm me when you start your .22LR ammo for sale thread, ok? Oh, and I'm going to beat you down to $0.05/round where it's supposed to be regardless of what you paid for it.

You can also just pay to join the site and not worry about it...

Hey!!!

You'll do well. Hang in there post your opinion when you can and as long as you agree with me everything will be just fine.

I'm with you. I thought there would be a work around of the "no posting in a WTS ad" by PM'ing the OP. Then I got the notice that I can't PM! Such a vicious cycle. Luckily, the OP did leave his email, so I was able to get a hold of him that way. However, I'm trying to productively get myself to 50 posts. Cheers!

If people only posted important things on here, it would be a very dead forum. Welcome to , the place where 80% of things said are pointless! Yet I spend all my time here

Based on the number of longer time users who never respond when I reply to them, I suspect few care about my posts, or have me on ignore. Yet I still keep on doing it
