    I am not allowed to post in Buy/Sell/Trade and I can't figure out a reason why that would be.

    Can someone please explain

    it says: "You must have been a member for 14 days, not have an overall red reputation and have 25 total posts to post in the Buy, Sell or Trade area or the Politics & Religion forum."

    I'm still failing to see the reason why I am unable to post, please explain

    I see my Post count is now suddenly 5, I guess that may be the reason why. However, it was 26 when I logged in today. Very confused

    I got banned a few months ago. My mistake, I didn't read the rules either. I did, but I can't remember every single one. Anyway, now I'm back and don't know how many days I have to wait until I can post in Buy/Sell/Trade I want to post some stuff there as well :/

    Posts which mean nothing to forum are deleted time to time. :) So, once you get more than 25 posts you would be able to post there.

    hahaha, I tried to inflate my post count so I could post in Buy/Sell/Trade, yes of course. But my posts were probably the most valuable posts this forum has ever seen. Tells you something about this forum...

    Usually when people have questions about forum rules or forum features, they create a thread in the suggestion/feedback section where the admin of the forum and moderators respond to peoples questions about forum rules and other forum stuff. http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=3

    Posting a bunch of fluff posts to raise your post count will only get you a warning, banned or posts deleted. All of us on this forum started out with zero posts and eventually got what we needed to do our business on here. I'm sure if you posts got deleted, they wasn't good ones that the moderators thought added value to the thread.
