Cannot see classifieds
Still can’t see classifieds, 5 posts in. Been a member for years but didn’t contribute. I have to view the classifieds as a guest, go to their profile, log in and PM. It’s redundant. I’m a serious buyer, so it’s just making the process a little painful. When i I log in the classifieds forums disappear. |
I just registered today and noticed the same issue. I don't recall encountering another forum that doesn't allow you to see classifieds.
Good luck and let me know if you find a solution. |
Firstly - both of you - welcome to the forum! :icon_tup:
There is a minimum post count required before you can interact on the classifieds section (ten). Reason being to keep the forum an active exchange of advice and ideas between like minded people, rather than just a mini Ebay........ You can read up on all the site rules etc here: https://www.rx7club.com/how-use-site-255/ and here: https://www.rx7club.com/faq.php Specifically for the classifieds: https://www.rx7club.com/faq.php?faq=..._section_rules General gist is to interact with others, offer help/insight where you can and get involved. Please avoid the one line "your car is cool" etc just to get your posts count up. Read some threads and comment on some builds and other things you are interested in, or can offer advice on. Your post count will climb to the 10 post minimum in no time at all then you can access the classifieds :icon_tup: Tom |
Low post low post counts can’t interact and or can’t even see the classifieds? Cause I cannot see them any longer

Good luck and let me know if you find a solution. Making 10 legitimate posts here on this site isn't a tall ask. If anyone needs any help, feel free to PM me ;) |

You'd be surprised. I was trying to sell my NB Miata and on the biggest Miata forum in the world, i needed 200 (yes, TWO HUNDRED) posts to be able to sell the car online. Orrrrrr I had to pay like $35 for the privilege.
Making 10 legitimate posts here on this site isn't a tall ask. If anyone needs any help, feel free to PM me ;) But to be fair to the previous poster, the point was not selling cars but rather not being able to even view the classifieds. I am quite sure the biggest Miata forum in the world lets people view the classified without even registering. It is possible that we are talking about two different site, and if so my apologies! I am sure you have legitimate reasons for not letting people view the classified without registering or low post count, but what is the harm in letting people window shop the cars available for sale? :) I've routinely window shopped classified on other forums to get an idea of the selling price. This helps me get a quick idea if I can afford a particular car. |
This clears things up nicely! I was wondering what happened. I was browsing the classifieds daily before. So I registered, and saw this. Now it all makes sense!
|
at 12 and still cant see the general for sale forums?
|
Here is a post from me because I also would like to view classifieds.
|
Understand - I was wondering the same thing -

What about those of us who own a different type of car but only have one really nice FD3S OEM LSD to sell for a good price?

Would rather sell it to a member for a better price. |

Glad i peeked in here to see why i cant see the classifieds either. 10 post count is very fair tho, seen other pages with way more.
|
This is frustrating but makes sense.
|
We'll get there, the only problem is you get a bunch of threads like these where all us new guys just dribble nonsense to get the post count up. Posting in the classifieds is one thing but just to look? Man...

It also hurts longtime members who are trying to sell items in the classifieds section by excluding potential buyers. Think of all the items in the classifieds sections that are not RX-specific. If you are looking for a universal part (wheels, brakes, injectors, pumps, audio, lighting, etc etc) then chances are you are looking at more than one forum. |
When did this start? Recently? I was just here a few weeks back.
|
Is this new? I've been able to see the classifieds up until a few weeks ago
|
It's definitely annoying. Member since March 2016 but didn't even know there was a classified section. My buddy found the part I was looking for in 10 seconds because he had access to the classified section.
|
I'm not going to lie, it is pretty frustrating that I was unable to view the classifieds all of a sudden. I have been browsing for years but never pulled the trigger, but now I'm in a place where I am able to. Just have to find the right car. If I was an old member with a car for sale (or planned to sell one any time in the future) I would be mad, as many people won't actually go through the steps necessary to see them. That equals thousands less views for the item they have for sale and the only benefit is that it gets a small percentage of people to sign up...
|
Found my answer! Long time creeper here
|
Window shopper here. Sucks I cannot browse any more. Looks like I'll have to be doing some nonsense posts.
|
with the 10 post min u have, everything should be visible to u except the lounge. i believe min post for it is 50.
|
Explains why I couldn't see it, I was able to before.
|
Was wondering the same thing. Thanks for the clarity.
|
I feel like this encourages nonsense posting more than it does discussion. I don't own an RX7, but I'm interested in buying one, and every question I have about them has been answered with a search. Not sure what I'm supposed to do.
|
i suggest trolling the build section. conversate with some about their project. u may even get some ideas along the way.

Glad I found this. Was wondering why I wasn't seeing the classifieds any more. Glad to get the privilege back as I want some pieces for my build.
|
Thanks
Thanks, for this explanation. Gotta get my count up.
|
I actually think this is a great idea. I’ve been low balled by so many 1 post members that it gets a little frustrating.
|
Any chance this will change? Let us view at least

well the new rules got me to create an account :peace:
|
10 post is kinda hard if you ask me, i'm pretty new to the rotary world and don't know enough to post a bunch of answers (or even questions haha).
plus wouldn't people try to get to their quota by make a bunch of low effort posts that flood the forums. |
there's no need to answer questions. check out build threads. see what people r working on. comment, ask questions, u might get some ideas out of it. try the gen specific section and the regional section as well. u might even find people near by, and possible a group that meets up once a month. it's really not that hard to get posts going.
|
posting for the same reason
|
Same question. Answer received.
|
I bought a 94 rx7 from the classified over a year ago and now I cant the ads anymore. Makes sense as I don't think I have posted much at all.
|
Im a new member and I would like to be respectful, Ive worked on other cars and have been looking into buying an FD now im on the market again. At first I was a little confused, I dont want to go around adding garbage replys just to see the classifieds but I'll definitely check out everyones build and ask some questions of my own.
|
Thanks for starting this thread - I have also been a long time window shopper. Ten posts helps to gate-keep with the community but often buying a car is the first step for most to get into the mindset of asking questions and posting progress. For me - I wish I could still window shop but understand there are a lot of people out there who suck
|
i bet if u log out of the site, u will be able to see all the classifieds that u did before joining up.

It also looks as if new members cannot post in the Builds section either.
|
I'm closing this thread, its dragging on and contains questions and answers from many other threads :dunno: . Please read the stickies at the top of the page. PM me with any questions you may have.
