    That dude's name is all over the first page of "new posts."

    Got a link to the runner type designations?


    Not really an official list of designations. Type 2's are members that have sat dormant for a long time then all the sudden pop up for their run. I care for them less than I do a new member that takes off on a run. At least a new member can say they aren't familiar with the rules or the way the forum runs. The type 2 runners have proven they have no use for the forum other than to fleece the membership or try to pounce on the new shiny that emerges. They didn't care enough to be part of the group to start out with.


    In this case he joined on Jan 31, 2013 and made one post, a second post on the next day. Nothing at all since then until tonight when all the one liners showed up.

    Type 1- Newbie who found something they want, joins INGO and immediately goes on a run.
    Type 2- Member who has been around for a while, then spots something they want and suddenly start running.

    Ah, gotcha guys. :yesway:

    Maybe this fella has had posts removed before? A few hours ago the front page showed no staff online. Sneak in a pile of one-liners when "no one" :rolleyes: is looking?

    I already PM'd him with

    We want to welcome you to INGO. We also want to take this opportunity to ask you to 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. In order to participate in the 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!

    How many times has he had posts deleted?

    Anyhoo, he's had 8 years to simply engage in a conversation or two and has chosen not to. No sympathy from me.


    Same here. I snapped a screenshot I saw earlier. It was after his posts got deleted. He responded to the PM's and looked at his CP and saw the lower count. He also read the classified rules pages then visited the paid membership page. After a while he logged off without becoming a sponsor. He knows how to avoid problems in the future and it will be on him to do so or not. Giving him the benefit of the doubt about not becoming a sponsor for now, he could have been in a place or on a connection where he didn't want to enter payment information at the time. That goes out the window if he comes back on later and breaks more rules. He saw the information though.
