50

[numbaonecoltsfan]

I feel both lucky and left out. I have never been called a runner. I'm not sure if I have fifty or not. Makes no difference I can't afford to shop the classifieds anyhow.

Edit: holy smokes 122!?! That can't be right.

Run? For 50? Run some where for 50 bucks, Maybe.
Nah, that would require putting on shoes that I'd have to bend over and tie

Yeah...That was one sweet chariot you had then....Weren't you still "dating" Boudicca when you had that??? Tall leggy redhead?? Helped you fight off the Romans??? She was a looker.....

Aaahhhh.....memories.

If you saw me in person you would know I don't run for anyone.

True story. I STILL get accused of making a run at 50 quality posts

I know I left a visitor message before this went down but I did not report any of his posts. I tried to do the right thing and help a member out.

Dude, I'm not a rabid poster but I got there. I think in my time I've purchased about 5 times on the classies. I do more reading than posting here because its a wealth of info and quite frankly there are guys on here WAY smarter than I am. Just go with it and be participatory and you will be there. Not trying to be in your business, just giving my not asked for opinion.

This may be the shortest thread title I've seen...

Trust that he was PM'd before the posts were removed. We are not out to get the new members. Just not the case.
I have sent several PM's to new members that get in a groove and start spamming up the board. Those who listen get a break. Those that do not, well, nuff said.

I still love your sig line. It needs a "Click here"

 

[SSGSAD]

I still don't have 50 quality posts, but I was grandfathered in since I joined before the rule.

Hey, wait a minute, I had to pay $20.00 .....

 

[tbhausen]

50 does seem like a long time ago… 50 posts... The 50 mark passes so quickly here with any kind of active participation that it's really just a nonevent.

So what is worst, the lame 50 rule or the lame people that bash newbies for trying to make 50? Oh well never mind beating the undead zombie horse here again. I just wish people knew how to act more accordingly and quit driving away new members.

I might have to add you to my sig...

No one is asking the one's worth keeping to leave... others are politely shown the door.

INGO is a forum, not a marketplace. The classifieds are a perk for contributing members, not a given. If someone is looking to hit 50 and live in the classifieds, then I hope we scare them off. There are plenty of other sale sites that cater to those kinds of people. However, if they're looking for a community full of like minded people, loads of information, and a BONUS classifieds section, let them stay. Those are the kinds of people that make INGO great. The classified hounds can let the door hit them on the way out for all I care
