Half of them come here trying to sell stuff first. I think they should be limited to certain sections up until a specific post count. on 240atlanta, you can't see certain things or go to certain pages until after a set post count.
That's how it is here now too......That's why they post it in the New Member section. I personally am not going to buy something off here unless the person has been on here for a while and is a reputable member.
I mean post your shit on Craigslist, Ebay, or Autotrader.

whats wrong with people trying to sell parts? i know that there's parts i'm looking for that i wish people would post up for sale. you can take me for a perfect example......i have been in the import scene for way over 10yrs now. why am i just now joining import atlanta you ask? i never needed to buy/sell used parts. i didnt want other people knowing what my cars had etc. (all things you worry about when you drive a hondas) for the record everything i have sold,every transaction could not be more perfect. Its a win/win situation each time.....the person gets the part they are looking for and i get rid of a part i dont intend to use. thats what makes this forum revolve round and round.....for every coilovers FS thread there is a hey" look at my drop" thread......
now the people that cant post in the right section......i dont know what to say about them....
but i will say to all the people with 2007 join date that think they are hot shit......dont assume just because someones join date is 2010 that they are a "noob" to the import scene or even the import scene in atlanta for that matter.(ive been in ATL for 16 yrs now)

While you make good points, why should IA let you come on this site and hock your goods while not participating in anyway with the site. You want free listings just because you've "been in the game"... Go to Craigslist.
But to anwser the question, the new 4.0 version is supposed automatically prevent you from posting in the FS section if you don't meet the requirements once the bugs get worked out. Be patient. Paul's a busy man.

Not sure who you are talking about. But in no way am I including you in my rant, lol.
I am not saying you shouldn't be able to sell your stuff. If you had read what I posted, it was people signing up and their first post is trying to sell crap in the NEW MEMBER Section. If all you want to do is sell your stuff and not introduce yourself and be a part of the site, then go to CL. I am not bashing on people for their join date or post count or even rep, just people who sign up only to make a buck. If they want to sell here then pay the $10 or be a part of the site is all I am saying.
BTW you have parts I want and need, but I have to buy my kids easter and stuff first.![]()
