Changes to The Marketplace
-
I was wondering what had happened
-
Brand new here, and to IH, just picked up my first two shirts. Was going mad trying to find the marketplace! Better get to posting!
-
What do the mods think about moving the Iron Heart Retailers section out of the Marketplace?
Since there is no direct buying and selling going on there it shouldn’t be susceptible to scammers and it contains info that could be useful to new members.
-
I am close to my 20 posts! Been frustrating losing access to the marketplace. So I’m working on it!
-
Question: This is post #21 for me. Long time lurker, but lately becoming more active in order to access the marketplace. Will post #21 unlock it for me? I guess we will see right now.

And did it…?
19 and counting…[emoji23] -
I’m admittedly a lurker who has only bought, sold, and DM’d. I never posted because I’m shy and didn’t think my experiences and knowledge were up to par with many here. I completely understand the new requirement and appreciate the effort to keep this place safer. I’ll do my best and look forward to contributing. [emoji1690]

Ditto what Turnstyle said; was beginning to second guess my memory of there ever having been a marketplace on the forum…
Good shout on the new rules though. Will definitely prompt more engagement from long-time lurkers/fewer-posters (see what I'm doing here?)
I'm still working on my post count…even thought I've had a very successful overseas Wesco boot purchase. Still wearing the boots too.

Agree.
Agree with what?
Welcome to the forum. Please note I’m not trying to be nasty here.
I know you want to reach your 20 posts as quickly as possible and I see that you’ve posted in several threads within a few minutes, but it would be great if you added a bit more to your posts. Your 20 will come quick enough.

Apologies. You are correct, was trying to reach the 20 as quickly as possible. I will try be more sincere in future posts.

If we find people are trying to buck our system, then we will just terminate their membership. It does not take a lot to contribute. It's like when I was younger working on building sites, we worked our arses off trying to avoid the foreman and not actually do any work, sometimes it's just easier to do what is expected of you.
We are offering a free service that obviously has value, we only ask a little in return.
-
ah! that will explain that then...

@fatpaulh I just deleted your two last posts, and draw your attention to this part of the OP:
"Users with less than 20 posts who wish to access these boards are encouraged to interact with the community and be a part of what we do here. Reaching 20 posts will then happen quickly. Spam posts or shitposting to reach the threshold will result in a permanent ban."
-
Totally agree. Smart move
-
Must…post….more…
-
Hmmm I had access but don’t anymore. Not sure what happened.
-
@Turnstyle I believe they recently implemented a minimum 20 post requirement in order to access the marketplace.
