How Can I...?

[Steve.43]

I have been a member of INGO for several years, but have posted only 19 times. I saw a handgun in the INGO classifieds and have tried to respond, PM, email, and every time I'm disallowed..told I don't have enough posts. Is there any way I can contact this man to let him know I'd like to buy his gun?

Get 31 posts real quick?

Read FAQ's and become a site supporter?

Unfortunately there are only two ways. Get your 50 quality posts or become a site supporter. You might want to check out the FAQs. They will explain how it works. Hopefully, one way or the other, the gun will still be there when you are eligible.

Whatever, the guy just asked a question. It might be a bit early to start piling on.

Yep, just an honest question, and at least he asked instead of bumping threads from 2007 about tactical shoe laces with one word posts.

I refuse to pile on anyone going for 50 posts if they've been here for 5 years. He clearly didn't join INGO just for the classifieds.

To those who posted courteous replies to my question, thank you. I will look elsewhere for my gun.

Hey Steve!

It took me a while to get my posts up to 50 too. A couple things, you will always find new and interesting stuff in the classifieds and you can always get your post count up by just engaging and talking to folks in one of these threads. You might be able to make your quota just responding to folks in this thread.

Steve, what gun are you interested in? Maybe we can help locate one at a decent price.

I really hope you hang around and get to know the folks here. There are a bunch of good people. Some are a little brusque but heck you get used to it.

I think the mods should add another "if" to the classified rule. 50 posts, site supporter, or one year as a member.

Say's the guy who's been a member for less than a month with 99 post's.

 

[wesnellans]

I'm seeing this as a trend I find a bit discouraging. We've all been newbies at one point or another, but so many times here on INGO that's seemingly considered unforgivable - ie, a question gets asked, and the next thing you know there's a dozen people who've piled on the poor newb. Sometimes the question's legit, sometimes it's just someone on the run to 50, but sheesh, let's not just assume the latter from the get go!

I thought we pretty effectively nipped that in the bud on this one.

guess I was trying to join in on the "let's take it easy on the new guy" side. If I didn't get that across in my post, I apologize.
