I'm new and your 50-post rule sucks! Please change it for my convenience.

[Mark 1911]

Look, I am new around here but even I realized that without the first 50 posts, most people would not have any quality posts at all.

Just make it to 50 posts, then type "+ 1" about 20,000 times, and you too can be one of the top posters on the site.

What do I need to talk my way out of?

There isn't a single person reading this thread who doesn't know the answer to that question except you.

If you're buying from a post in the Classifieds section, you're participating.
If you're selling from a post in the Classifieds section, you're participating.
If you're trading through a post in the Classifieds section, you're participating.

Participate ... to take part in. The word "participate" was chosen to encompass all activities regarding the Classifieds section.

Technically, if you're READING the Classifieds section, you're participating. The rule is NOT "If you don't have 50 posts yet you can't post in the Classifieds section." It IS "If you don't have 50 posts yet, you can't PARTICIPATE in the Classifieds."

You really don't see where you could have potentially broken the Classifieds rule?



PS, Sorry for my intrusion. I'll wander back to my hole now.

With your phrasing I can see how it breaks the rule, but like I said I was just messing around. I don't need to make that up. The post where I said that about his phone number was made awhile ago and I got no punishment for it. If I did something wrong I would just drop it instead of keep talking about it and bringing it to the attention of more posters and mods. So when I say I was really messing around I am not lying about that, I am not just trying to play the mods for fools like that other poster accused me of doing.

The force is strong with this one.

Nice band, but they are a little dated...

If by "dated" you mean the only rock band that has been around for more than 35 years that still makes relevant music and still is consistently one of the top touring acts out there, then you would be correct.

We may have a different definition of relevant.

Don't be dissing RUSH now..

 

[GBuck]

I'm not dissing Rush. I like Rush. I just wouldn't call them relevant to the current music scene.

I guess it depends on perspective. Relevant to MUSICIANS? Yes.
Relevant to the Average Joe? Perhaps not.
