Can't post in articles for sale forum

Post by harry_mac » Wed Sep 25, 2024 2:59 pm

Apologies for posting here, but it is brewing equipment related...

I'm having to give up brewing and want to place an advert in articles for sale. However I can't see how to. I've been a member for a number of years, although not active for several years. Is there some reason I can't post there (and several other places, including the FAQ)? I can't see anything in the FAQ which would explain it.

It might be due to your post count? Get it over 5 and try again.

Is 109 posts more than 5? :D

Interesting that I’m shown as joining in 2019, but my first posts were in 2009 according to the search function. Maybe that’s related to the problem?

Also, as you might gather, the quote function doesn’t seem to be working for me either. And, no, I’m not editing within the quoted text.

Your post count is 4 on your profile. The 109 search results show your username in bold for only 4 posts. Looks like your account was removed during the great cull.

As above, you need more posts to get full privileges (6 I think). It's to stop hit and run advertisers spamming the forum.

Ah, all becomes clear. I can’t recall re-registering, but it looks like it was 5 years ago.
