WHAT IS IT WITH SOME NEWER MEMBERS???

[Great-Kazoo]

Have they joined with the intention of waiting out the time period. Then log in to sell stuff?? There's 3 newer members sent pm's to for a few things, mainly location .
Not a peep. I have seen 1, post in the FOR SALE section. Other then that.... silence.. Jeez if they are joining for that purpose only. Perhaps they should try for IP status

Does anyone on this board talk to you for some reason other than buying or selling stuff?
Your reputation reaches far and wide, maybe they're joining just because they've heard about the great Honest Habib.

I have lurked for a long time. IIRC, the board changed somehow and I could no longer see the S&P forum or the Trading Post.
I also wanted to use the search function. So I joined.

As for my high post count now, many of my posts now are reply to WTS posts.
I used to post a bunch on a different board, then I got spanked.
Now, I keep my mouth fingers closed.

GK, if you see someone circumventing the 30 day probationary period, or they're in violation of site rules (such as: no or invalid location), give the staff a heads up so we can correct the behavior.

I really hope your spoken English is better than your typed English. I haven't the foggiest idea of what the hell you are talking about 75% of the time because of how you type it out.

I'm not defending the specific people you're referring to, but when you join and see that all of the active threads are dominated by the same ~20 people, it's a bit intimidating.

Join in those threads and be member #21 in them. We are primarily a discussion forum and overall a very friendly bunch. New members, or legacy members with low post counts are just as welcome, and equally encouraged, to join in on the discussions as the members with 20k+ posts. The camaraderie built by participating here develops trust and great friendships - even with old crotchety folks like me and the Great Kazoo.
