PART 2: I'm new an your 50-post rule sucks! Please change it for my convenience.

[Expat]

I’m having the same issue and although it sucks, I can see why they did it

If you just talk to people, like you would meeting them in real life, you can whip right threw it

So where is Woodburn and what do folks down there do?

 

[Luke.Schlatter]

Hang in there Luke. This is a community where we actually meet and support each other in the real.

If you are here just for the classifieds you will miss out on the best of INGO.

I appreciate the support, obviously I’m still new and trying to figure this whole thing out so I appreciate it

That’s kinda what I figured, I appreciate the response

It’s just east of fort Wayne, about 15 minutes from the Ohio border. It’s an extremely small town and people tend to like their shooter over here

 

[Luke.Schlatter]

Seriously. It's not that hard to get involved in a topic and make 50 QUALITY posts. Short, one line posts don't count and are removed.

I understand and that’s what I’ve been trying my best to do, I also didn’t realize the one liner rule until I wished someone a happy Easter

I think it took me 4 sessions over as many days to get my 50.

You’ll get there.

Thanks for the response

A good place to start is with an introduction! Go here: https://www.indianagunowners.com/forums/introductions-and-greetings.130/ and tell everyone a little about yourself.

We just had a meet and eat down in FW a month ago, some brewery type place down town. There are several people down in that part of the country.

That’s great to know, I actually heard about this website from one of your members down here and that’s why I’m here, I’m glad you got to experience one of the downtown brewery’s, I’ve heard great things about them

It was a little more urban than I am used to, but I figured with a dozen of us, and I assume all of us were armed, I was, it was safe enough.

I agree. Don't throw away the opportunity.

LOL, you got me on that one. I had to go back to double check...

Yes I 100% agree downtown is not somewhere I would want to live, but visiting every once in a while is kinda nice, also glad that I love far enough away that I can still shoot in my backyard

OR... hear me out here. maybe the rules should not encourage the sprint at all, by imposing logical road blocks such as quantity and time based restrictions! im the time traveler trying to destroy skynet

Did this work? Dad said we gotta move the discussion.

If so, the classifieds are for members who contribute to the forum, either monetarily or by engagement. They’re not for those who jump in when something that tickles their fancy rolls across the block. Therefore if you have to sprint the classifieds arent meant for you.

They cant put a x amount of posts per hour or day restriction in place, some members like to have actual discussions lol.

If any change were to be made (which isnt going to happen lol) i suggest restricting access to the classifieds so they cant see whats for sale until they get their posts or pony up.

I think this is the most prudent suggestion.
It would alleviate a LOT of headaches for staff, and a lot of butt-hurt for new members.
"Out of sight-out of mind"
Of course it would also kill one of the most entertaining and repetitive threads, so let's just forget it, and get back to screwing with the newbies!

It would also kill a lot of draw for the website, which is what the owner wants. More views = more revenue.

Except, the guy that pays the bills uses the classifieds to attract new members, many of whom will stick around when they realize what a sterling group we are.

I'm not sure about that, but I've been wrong before.
I found this place completely by accident and had no idea it even had a classified section for the first couple of days.
I was busy reading...so much to take in.
