Once a member gets 50 posts, it can take up to an hour for them to be promoted to gain access. This is an automated task that runs every hour.

If you have 50 posts right now and can't access it, please post a reply here.

This should also ensure that all sale posts are legit.

Is there a way for people with less than 50 posts to still be able to view the threads? I was in the middle of selling a BB and the person buying can no longer view the files I uploaded for them. This way they can still PM the buyer. Usually it is the seller that has the ability to go illigit, with paypal you receive money before sending the product. Even if they could not post in the threads at least the ability to view would be nice.

That makes sense. I just made it so they can view threads, but they still can't post anything. They're more than welcome to PM the seller.

Thanks, this should make it easier.
