I find this a bit unfair. I've lurked around since 2008 but posted rarely. However, I try to make my posts useful when I do. Is there any way the age of the account or some sort of verification status could be incorporated? I have a SERO 500 plan I'd like to trade for a Touch Pro 2 bargain and no way to post about it =( Your concerns seem are valid, but you're also blocking decent people who just don't post a lot. Thanks for understanding...

you can always cruise the bargain trader section and pm someone when you want to deal.

You know, I agree with you. Many sites have requirements for the bargain center and I think they all need to go. Some people just want a deal. I was just at another site where I was in your shoes and I asked the admin if there was some way and he told me two words... "sorry, no". That was all I heard from him.

Start posting! I understand you saying you want to make useful posts.... posting is like junk... one persons junk another persons treasure....
you might post something you think is useful and another person might not think so... you post something you think isn't useful and someone else might think it's useful.

Forums are to post in, not just for lurking. I too once lurked and just sucked in all the information I could, shoot I did that before becoming a member and after becoming a member... then I decided it was time to start giving back, so I started posting.

Post my friend, post!

As I also agree with you but, I understand. It's not people like you why it was created, it was people who sign up for accounts just to spam.

Too many people take advanage of the free posting in those areas and it hurts everyone.

i think that is is very good.. it keeps in the good ones in and the ones that just wanna deal would have to be apart of the site..

What about people that just want to get a good deal? I don't think it is fair to them...

I am sure Frosty will be happy to look into this and figure something out for you and the others out there. We will not simply say "NO"

So, instead of posting once, that I have a SERO F&F 500 I'd like to let people at ppcgeeks.com get a shot at first, I should cruise the forums regularly and send people PMs whenever it seems they might be interested? All because I don't post 'lol' enough
