Ya I had the same question but I get your position, although I've been searching this site for 6 or 7 years and just recently actually joined.. So I kinda feel like a longer time member. Just don't feel the need to post much due to the fact that for most questions the forum "vets" on here have already posted plenty of relevant info, all u need to do is spend some time researching...

I like how Rx7club has the post count requirements. I hate going to forums and just seeing spammers and people who don't really care about the community. It also makes people get out of there shells and become social.

I always kind of had a problem with this sort of thing. I completely understand the reasons for it but I was always kind of the quiet guy lol. Always listening and learning from the more experienced members. So it was always hard for me to make productive posts but I'm trying

NJ Flora and Fora do vary a lot!

Over the years I've had many cars, but it is only in the past ten or so that the Internet tempted me with this sort of discussion locale. And is there a variety!

Without posting names: one auto marque's forum (US) is full of nasty comments - insults even for uninformed queries. Another is just technical (US) but respectful. Another (Italian) is an absolute pleasure to surf even if one does not have a question at that time; people talk about all things interesting, not only automotive.

I have yet to guage this one, and admittedly this is due to my non familiarity though I have visited it for a long time before registering. The organization and seeming compartimentalization (gen; series ...) makes it hard to simply cruise for enjoyment. And the post requirements make me think of speed bumps; it is assumed that I am going to spam even though I know it's wrong.

As the Sgt fears, I am indeed here this time to show off a glorious 90 GTU that I've had for 16 years and that now I'd like to see in the hands of an afficionado. So, I will persevere and jump through the hoops ... !

I understand the logic on limiting access based on post count and am excited to actually read some stuff. So close

Agreed. Good idea but can be a pain for people with no intention to abuse the forum.

It sure is work to be part of this forum... But it seems like the benefits outweigh it.

NJ Almost there to post for a sale

Well, I was pleased to have 10 under my belt last week, have photos on Photobucket and read the instructions on this site, but now find I need 15. I do think this is the place to get this beaut of a GTU into a rotaryhead's hands, but it certainly is more complicated than the run of the mill auction places! Hope this counts toward eventual success ...

very interesting, although when there are threads helping you to up your post count by pretty much typing "read it" maybe the post count to view the rest of the site should just start at 5 instead

... I did read all the info tho and it was very helpful :P

This is just a suggestion, but if you open up the ability to view a thread to EVERYONE, regardless of post count, you might get rid of a few repetitive threads, and reduce the clutter.

NY posting reply threads

posting reply threads does increase your post count, i guess a very smart way to get rid of spam and filter members who are actually interested and not a pc sending mass spam ;]]
