    Hey I'm halfway there, keep it up.

    No you're not..

    Please read the FAQ which can be found in my signature below. It's pointed out in great detail why we have the 50 post rule because to the newcomer it can seem like an obscure rule for us to want to enforce. All we ask of you is that , in order to participate in the FREE classifieds, you must contribute to the forum by either:

    1) content in the form of 50 quality posts (not one liners) or
    2) financially by becoming a site supporter. That information can be found here: https://www.indianagunowners.com/forums/site_s..._are_here.html

    Please remember, we are a forum first and then a place for classifieds. There is a plethora of information available here and that's what keeps people here and what allows us to have a classifieds section.

    Thanks!

    ..........exactly why I don't chime in. Forums are full of a-holes anymore, most posts are aggressive by nature, not meant to offer any helpful or useful info.

    I was a Member here for years before becoming a Mod. INGOers are by far the most helpful, generous people I have met on the Internet, and I have been online since BEFORE there was an Internet.

    If you come in with an attitude, will you get attitude back? Sure. Human Nature. If you try to be part of the Community will you get great advice, and meet some people that you will become friends with in real life? Yep.

    The choice is yours. We, as Mods are just here to make sure your choice doesn't infringe on other people that are here having a good time.

    Capisce?

    Be aware though that while the $15 donation will get you access to the classifieds, there are still a great deal of members who won't do business with someone until they've been around and active long enough to build a rapport.

    And some who will read your post to decide what kind of person you are before dealing with you.

    I've obviously missed something. You guys are dog piling a noob and wonder why he doesn't want to talk to us. Is there a reason why many of you are so hateful towards him or her? Obviously some of his posts have been deleted because I see nothing posted that warrants the cold shoulder and nastiness he is receiving. It's just a dog pile from what I have seen in the last few posts. Man down, let's kick the sh*t out of him. WTH?????????

    What's the point in posting if you are going to smack him down when he does? We're all on the same side here. Can't we play nice together?

    GunGirl, you missed a lot.

    Where's the rest of the conversation? What's left just looks like dog piling.

    I will never understand why anyone who can read would complain in this thread about post count and the classifieds.

    This thread is like the workshop for noobs to thicken their skin. Come 'mere boy let us tan your hide. :whip:

    There were posts in various threads I believe that were one word comments that have been deleted. I am pretty sure I saw one in the status update thread even. I had no idea how this person was or what they were attempting to say as it was literally one word and made no sense.

    Personally, I don't see why people do this to buy in the classifieds here. I haven't seen anything of interest to me and get the impression that much of what is advertised is offered at inflated prices. I joined to get information, not deals. If you want to buy guns or gun related items, why not just do it on gunbroker or some other site that is meant for that? That is not the main purpose of this forum so it always makes me chuckle when people get so upset over not being able to join and immediately buy or sell here. There are facebook groups for that as well...many other options besides this forum.
