ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:
http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/forumdisplay.php?f=144
Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    Post counts

        Posts are very often moved or deleted as well. Any post that is found by a moderator that is a clear attempt at "whoring" through the 30 post requirement is deleted (too many, and the count is reset... a second time, the user is banned). If you ever reply to an on-topic thread with "cool" or "nice car", it'll probably be deleted. If you reply to a thread that says "what do you think of my car?" in the appearance section, your count will go down when someone moves that to the Image Gallery... If that makes sense.


        Basically, you are encouraged to learn, not just push your way through. When people get out of the Beginner Forums, we hope they're fairly well versed in the basic CB7 knowledge... standard swaps, some turbo info, bolt-on mods, suspension work, etc... It saves the older members from having to see the beginner questions everywhere on the board, and it saves the beginners from getting flamed to death! When people whore their way through, they defeat this system...




        I know you didn't ask for all that, but i feel the more I say it, the more someone might actually read it! You didn't say "why can't I post yo dis sux?"... I can appreciate an intelligently posed question! At least you show that you DID read something when you said you know it doesn't count in OT!

          Plus, unless im mistaken, this site has thousands of members, hundreds of which post up every day. Whatever, or whoever, keeps track of post numbers probably takes anywhere from a few hours to a day to put out a real number.

              It's become a habit... someone asks about post counts, I run through all that. Not only do you get to read it, but everyone else that comes across this thread can as well. The stickies are usually ignored.

                          Yeah. We had some issues with new members buying via PM, so I made those areas invisible to anyone with less than 30 posts. Read the sticky to get the password to access the traditional classifieds when you get there.
