The 250 posts is there for a good reason and its to protect our members.

We have run for some time with a lower limit for car sales but, its proven to be a real issue for the mods and an unwelcome overhead.

 

Another 40+ posts and I can sell cars ans parts.....whooooopeeee  ::)

You can anyway, TB told me that when I had a reduced post count.... ;D ;D

My 2p's worth: This is the best (motor-based) forum I have come across. The mods go to incredible lengths to keep it going. It has worked really well for over four years now. I wish folk would accept the rules for what they are and stop trying to get them altered to suit their own ends.
250 posts is easily acheived by simply joining in for a few weeks and, TBH, I wouldn't 'trust' anyone to sell me a car without doing all the necessary checks, forum member or not.

thats because your a s*****ag and not take the pee out off the mods :D ::) ;D :y
Your point was spot on
250 is a good target I also think that all sellers should be required to provide contact details(name address and land line number in there profile) for the mods only incase things go pear shape.

Thanks for the replies.
I wasn;t crtiticising the decision of 250 posts just the consequences of it. Some forums have Mods approve ads before posting. Am more than happy to pay to list stuff on ebay. Just been easier, and probably more helpful to other OOF members if I could have offered items on here first.
This has to be the best car forum. Brisk*da is good but still a way to go in terms of specific support.
I have supported the OOF forum as much as possible, but I have other forums to visit, Mostly Diecast Models, Aviation, Radio, Photography related stuff which is why my post count is probably on the low side.
Won't leave it completely. I'll just pop-up from time to time.
