Default New rules?

It seems a few folks misconstrued my post the other day asking for pricing info of my winchester 1907 collection. A friendly mod contacted me to inform me that I didn't qualify for the buy and sell yet. I then explained not only is the collection not for sale YET but I have actually traded here before. I have a trader rating here and have been a member since 2012. The best I can figure is that the post count minimum has been changed?? Anyway, this post makes it 13 so ............I guess I need to blab about something before being able to sell or buy here again.

Default shouldnt apply to you

Rules were changed to discourage spammers and scammers a couple years ago by making 30 days and 20 posts the minimum for buy and sell advertising. Since you joined in 2012 and have trader ratings from 2012 and 2013 I expect you can still post in buy and sell as many with minimal posts were grandfathered into the buy and sell by the longevity of their membership.

Each comment counts, but some people have posted 20 comments one after the other on one thread to built their post number, and it wasn't well received.

That happens all the time in any thread about Donald Trump (positive or negative) you care to examine.
