Ladies:

I have made a few exceptions to the rule about 25 posts to take advantage of the For Sale thread, and - trust me - I'm paying for it. You cannot imagine how many PMs I'm now getting about making yet another exception.

So without further ado, I hereby declare that it is no use to PM me about this, even if you've been loitering for years and even if the bass seems particularly cool and worthy of staying amongst the forumites.

I have learned my lesson and I hereby repent. Rules is rules.

If you can be bothered with a little tinkering, just insert another rank between Newbie and Junior and limit posting in the For Sale threads to the new "Not-so-Newbie" (?) rank and above. The only thing to keep an eye on would then be those guys that spam the place with 25 one-liners in a few hours just to gain access to the FS thrads.

Cheers

Well, I don't have internet access and can't post here too much. Posting via iphone is a PITA at best...

I guess my bass goes to ebay. Too bad.

oh well.

I post by phone here all the time on a DROID no less...I thought the Iphone I had was a lot easier to use than the DROID is. Too bad the service SUCKED or I would probably still have my Iphone! You could also try Talkbass to sell your bass. I have sold over 100 there in the last few years...NEVER had a single problem in that time. WELL worth the cost to be a contributing member JUST for the For Sale area in my opinon. I don't participate their like I used to as I prefer it over here but I still cruise the For Sales everyday... good Luck with your sale!

Peace,

T

I'm posting from my iPhone right now... From Nowheresville, TN, I assure you, your coverage is better.

I second the TB suggestion. Good luck with your sale.

So men can post for sell ads with less than 25 posts?

(Sorry I couldn't help it) :D

Seeing that troops in Afghanistan and that teenage girl who sailed her yacht around the world solo have internet access I find that hard to believe. I've been to some pretty out of the way places in third world countries that have internet cafes on every corner.

Apparently you have enough internet access to play on eBay though.

Only took me about six months to reach 25 posts. No big deal.
Heck, I got to 200 in just over 5 1/2 years.

Sorry, lads, I hate being a stickler about such things - or about anything, for that matter - and this wasn't directed at any particular person.

I just was being overrun with PMs on this issue and at some point it becomes simpler to just say, "Look, there are rules." And 25 posts, man, I've done that in one NIGHT.

I agree. I joined here in April and currently have well over 200 posts. I probably did 25 in the first week alone.

yeah I mean you can always post pointless comments in topics that have nothing to do with you just to bump up your post count.

Obviously I would never condone such actions though!
