    Always check FAQ and read messages you get when you encounter a problem. At this time you lack eligibility to post. You must wait for your eligibility to be upgraded.

    Was there a sale on old DP accounts that I missed? Seems like tons of "old" members are popping up out of the woodwork after years of virtual dormancy and trying to use old accounts.

    Everything works fine now ;)

    I'd suggest adding the note that "It can take up to an hour for your new permissions to be active." to the FAQ page - it can't be found anywhere so thanks again for posting it.

    LOL. So distrusting, Brown. :p

    OK, same thing occurred to me, but a glance at the posts before and after the dormant period says its the same guy at the keyboard. People dumb enough to buy free accounts are seldom alert enough to pick up on small posting idiosyncrasies and faithfully repeat them.

    I'm not so sure how having 25 posts makes you more trustworthy but it is what it is.

    It doesn't make you trustworthy, but there's a good chance having 25 posts AND being a member for 2 weeks makes you *not* a drive-by spammer.

    I admit I didn't bother to read his posts and was not accusing this guy, but I am pretty sure a lot of guys are falling back to old "back up" accounts or something. There are just too many to be coincidence,

    I read this section for the laughs watching people ask for a review of something and Shawn posts their 10 duplicate accounts or something similar. It is damn entertaining.

    ---

    So, just read this thread. A 2007 member on only his 11th post, trying to sell some spam shit.... hmm, I'm sure he is totally legit and just was on a world cruise for the last 3 years. http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=2285043
