Are users still required to have 5 posts in order to post a classified?

The 2 most recent posts are both 1 post users.



Wondering the same thing myself, saw those as well. If your first post is to sign up and sell stuff, that sorta doesn't gel with the rules:

7. You must have a minimum post count of 5 to post threads in the classifieds. Alliance members can post no matter their post count. **Do not place a classified ad elsewhere in the forum due to not having the required post count.**

Note: The Garage Journal is not a classifieds site. We have a classifieds section just so that users can help each other out with deals and finds. If you are here looking for profit, please don't post.

Apologies if I'm misinterpreting the rules here, but seems fairly free of ambiguity.

any posts that are reported , that I see, I will deal with for classifieds .
There's no auto system . and Mods don't read or see every post so it's important to report
Ah ok, I should have phrased my question better.

I thought it was automatic

If you see it happening guys and girls, just report it, it should get taken care of.


We appreciate the help in these matters. Thanks

ahhh okay... I thought that was handled automatically... I've seen a few "classifieds" recently in which the user only had one post, which seemed a bit odd.

There has been an influx of people trying to sell things lately, they only have 1 or 2 posts. Their other posts are clearly just to make it look like they are contributing, but the posts are empty, hollow.

Just an observation.

Any time anyone sees a post in classifieds for a new user, ( or any questionable post on the forum,as far as that goes) kindly use the report tab . That way Ryan & the Mods get a report & can act on it.

You mean those 1-2 word replies in a span of about 3 minutes ?

That's why I tell the offenders to make productive posts. Join in on some conversation, you might actually enjoy yourself.
