    Just joined the forum so this is my first post here. Planned to start a thread here http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=58 but in the posting rules it says "You may not post new threads" so I can't start a new thread.

    Why is that?

    Thanks

    Some areas of the site require 10 posts to access

    Why is it 25 for the Buy, Sell or Trade forum (which includes link exchanges)?

    Want to sell some links and can't exactly jump into other threads to do that!

    Because that section is only for established users.

    Because he probably doesn't want people doing drive-by spammings of that forum making it a much less useful resource for the people who hang out here.

    It also will stop someone from signing up quick, getting a bunch of people to link to them in "supposed" recips then leaving (not linking back).

    Then create a new account to do the same thing

    If you have something invested here, you are more apt to be a better buyer, seller or trader.
