I definitely am leaving towards the H swap. I just want to do everything right.

On a side note Im almost convinced Im not getting to see any of the threads in any of the other sections let alone post in them.

Is something with my account wrong? Can any of the mods unlock my ability to see/add posts? I know sometimes you have a to have a particular post count but mine doesnt seem to increase at all from 0.

Thanks guys!

Im sure if you messaged Deevergote, he may be nice and help you out with your post count, but no guarantees.

This thread explains beginner limitations and post counting: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=157810

Hey man thanks for the heads up. Ive read through the forum rules and it still looks like my post count is at 0. I assume it just keeps a log and once I get 30 it says 30 and the gates open to the rest of the forum. I appreciate the help.

Ha! Thanks. I dont mind following the rules. I just am eager to read beyond the beginner section

Well the post count limit doesn’t count in image section or off topic section. Only in technical sections. Back in the day when we were very active here that was pretty easy. But now with a lot of people lurking and not posting much. It is very difficult to get 30 technical post.

There are certain sections that do not count towards the post count tally. The beginner image gallery is one of them.

Unfortunately, when these rules were instituted, this forum was beginning to get a lot of the same type of traffic that the few CB-related Facebook groups get. Entire threads created because someone decided to snap a few pictures of their ragged out car with suds on it at the car wash. Not that we're all a bunch of senile old men (well, I guess some of us are), but the purpose of a forum is to provide a place for members of a community to exchange thoughts, ideas and information and have that collection be somewhat searchable. The types of posts weren't disallowed, but they also weren't helpful toward proving that a new user was providing quality contributions to reach the 30 post threshold.

A lot has changed these days, including the need for more traffic. Your posts have not been the caliber of the ones I previously described, but they still fall under that umbrella because of the section they're in. All that said, there shouldn't be anything you can't see. Just areas you can't post in.

Deev would be the one best-suited to chiming in regarding where the site ownership still stands on those issues.
