my only gripe with this forum, is that i can't reply to people who are selling/looking for cars/parts.

if i need something i have to put it in the test area and it gets moved to the correct area, but i don't get the post count. 

i've never understood this sort of censoring lol  cos if i ever have something to sell, be it car or parts i don't get the recognition.

and i'll probably never get enough post counts to be able to as i don't frequent forums very often, and when i do i really just like to read what others are saying.  :-X

Its the best method, tweaked over the years, of providing some level of protections to members and to the site.

Those sections are there as a courtesy to those who do regularly use the forum, not as a freebie place to advertise cars/parts for the whole internet.

yup, take us forever or not at all. innit  :y
