10 Posts are a little much
 

"You are only allowed to post URLs to other sites and photos after you have made 10 posts or more"
Little ridiculous, no?
Maybe 3 is more reasonable.

FYI, I'm only posting this to hit my 10 post mark bc its bs!

This is a bicycle forum... converse and discuss cycling. When you have fulfilled the basic premise of the forum... then you can go off and do other things.

BTW posts in foo do not count toward your total. "Bike Forum." Keep that in mind.

Have a nice day.

Some of the The Threads do NOT Count Posts.

What do you want to post, Drew? A link to a youtube of your kitty?

After finding your post, I thought I’d take a minute to explain to you why you can’t post a picture yet. We are by far the largest bicycle themed forum in the world. And, therefore, we are a ripe target for spammers to attempt to advertise their wares. In an effort to reduce the amount of spam that we have to deal with, we have instituted a few policies.

One of which is withholding new forum members from posting pictures or links until they have made 10 posts. That gives the moderation staff enough time to sort out most of the spammers from the real forum members. Another measure we have installed is a 5 posts in 24 hours limit to new forum members. Once you get past 10 posts both of those restrictions are automatically removed.

Forums want new threads and posts and welcome new forum members. This may upset some people and they may vent about it. We understand. An easy way to get your post count up is to go to our Introductions forum and introduce yourself. Then maybe take a couple of minutes and greet some other new forum members.

And with that, Thread Closed.

Thread moved from Foo to User Assistance.
