Yeah I get it. I don't know if you're familiar with TacSwap, but that is a prime example of a market place community that isn't well policed. There are more scammers than real people.No worries. Thanks for being a grown a** man and not having a hissyfit. LOL (you'd be surprised how many man-childs freak out when we tell them no. LOL )
Remember, this place is a community with a classifieds section for contributing members. This isnt Armslist. The great thing about this place is community. So Im sure you will understand why we are so protective of it. Many people here know each other in the real and hang out and shoot together.
So if you see what you want in the classifieds now, just pony up the site supporter fee* and buy it. Otherwise, hang out, post slowly and methodically with well thought out posts and you'll be at 50 within a week. Guaranteed. And without any effort! And you'll be ready when that thing you are looking for pops up. I think I had my 50 in about 5 days back in the day.
*and no, mods like myself are volunteers. We dont get a cut of that. We just like to see our beloved community thrive... running a message board server isnt cheap.
I was looking at some of the threads on here about get togethers, and the prepping community. I'm hoping in time I can make some friends here. I've met a few of your members at our bianual machinegun shoot that my friend hosts at machinegun excursions in Russiaville.
