petersull Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Hi, could someone please explain where I can find and look at your classifieds section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizibilder Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 You need a minimum number of posts to see the classifieds. It won't take you long to get there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Knight Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 There's a link just below the Stargazers Lounge logo at the top of the page. However, I think you need 50 posts to view it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonshane Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Hi Peterwe have set minimum membership requirements and once you pass those you will be able to view and then post in the classified sections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Spock Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Posting is currently 250 posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesF Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 50 posts for reading, 250 posts for posting were the limits, AFAIR.James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizibilder Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 You have enough posts to see the classifieds but an insufficient number to post there. This is to prevent a few folk from joining the forum simply to trade or profit. Genuine members will quickly amass sufficient posts to be able to post in the classifieds.

JamesF Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 It's a bit disturbing how easy it is to rack up 250 posts without realising it James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foggymike Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I didn't even know there was a classified section! Good idea to have it accessed like it is though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ikorodu Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 It's a bit disturbing how easy it is to rack up 250 posts without realising it JamesIt really depends on how you use the forum. I've been a member since last year and am now on my second scope. I decided on the sw dob 200 based on the advice of this forum. But as so many people post so regularly I find the answer to most questions is already here and I'm confident there are a lot more well qualified/experienced users to answer others ( but I have tried to help others). Hence I read a lot but post a little, which means at my current post rate i'll be able to view the classifieds in 6 months and post there in 4 years time!Ikorodu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberius Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 That explains it, thanks everyone.Will have to get posting.Hi Peter,I'm in same boat. Managed to access classifieds on first day,lucky then as oppose to being unlucky now,lol.I've managed to more than double my posts in less than 12 hours. ;-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clouder Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Ah ok, that explains it, thank-you however, I do agree with ikorodu - I have learnt to search on forums and read myself, which I have done on this forum a LOT. Ah well, I'm sure I can find some relevant stuff to comment on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to be upgrading my scope in a month or two but I guess I won't be selling the old one through SGL. Shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave34 Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I read alot on here, i always find what i need to know through other peoples threads and answers, i dont post alot, as being a newbie i wouldnt have much to say that would interest most people on here, i predict it will take years for me to achieve 250 posts, it seems a high number to me, and abit unfair on some less vocal users. cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cubemaster Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Isn't it 50 posts AND be a member for 1 month as specified in the code of conduct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame.This is how I see it - it doesn't anger me, I just think it's a shame to other users really. I'm selling my gear soon and as it's barely used I'm sure people would be interested in it. But them the rules I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
