Have I mentioned lately how happy I am to be here
just curious, which Belton?Haha welcome
Yep, when I signed up here they told me I needed 10 quality posts to access the classifieds.
I think I must be special or something because everyone else is being told they need 50.

"Dear .........,
I did in fact come in for the classifieds, and would certainly stay for discussion, but drumming up 50 comments to be able to send a simple message is a bit of a bridge too far these days.
I understand your high standards for your site, but they are a burden that ironically costs your users the opportunity to sell their wares beyond the group. I'm sure they are adults capable of vetting their buyers on their own.
I have seen many ads and read many other forums on INgunowners, but I neither live in IN nor have the time to make days of posts for the pleasure of inquiring.
I guess I'll see if I can find one of the other ads he's probably been forced to post on another site due to a lack of (or ability to show) interest on INGO.
Allowing non-users to see classifieds, then immediately throwing a burdensome and unrealistic requirement (or just money and you're in! Hah!) on them is both a bit culty and in poor taste. I suppose you mean well, and you've certainly excelled as a rabid gatekeeper.
Kind Regards,
P.S. Some of us do a lot more reading than blabbing, and occasionally contribute high-quality discussions and content over frequent banter. I would consider revising your rules to allow these types without imposing unrealistic comment counts."
Big words do not mean quality post. You’re just gonna confuse all the cult members with fancy $2 words.An erudite turd. Unwelcome in any punch bowl.
Awe, come on, man! Erudite is only 3 syllables, not 4 like Aphrodite.Big words do not mean quality post. You’re just gonna confuse all the cult members with fancy $2 words.
Punch Bowl, noun. A bowl you put punch into. Duh!Big words do not mean quality post. You’re just gonna confuse all the cult members with fancy $2 words.
I thought they had to be engraved on stone tablets when it was only 10But when we only needed 10 posts we actually had to mail them to everyone
Speaky Engrish, prease
If it was in there we both missed it. I’m still surprised at the temerity of going straight to TK with a PM. Attempting an end around the chain of command.Did I already miss the meme of the doll asking him to show where the bad man touched him?
I am always surprised that they seem to think that the members are really missing out by not having a chance to buy their overpriced crap.If it was in there we both missed it. I’m still surprised at the temerity of going straight to TK with a PM. Attempting an end around the chain of command.
Yep, but I do try to drop whatever it is I’m doing to spend 60 or 70 or 100 bucks in gas and my time to race to there door when I get the chance.I am always surprised that they seem to think that the members are really missing out by not having a chance to buy their overpriced crap.
