After the 20 days trial period and 20 post trial limit, if the user still has a 95% or above user rating, the system will automatically upgrade the account to full access with no restrictions.

20.

Is it 20 "loggin in" days or 20 days after you registered, regardless of loggin in? Ive been registered for sometime now and I don't visit this site too oftem, just mainly surf the FS section and I still can't post/contact any sellers for parts I want.

20 days since registering, but you need the post count bud. You only have 7 posts, but need 20.

IceAeon · 11-07-2006, 06:45 PM

I'm glad this exlains it.

For a couple days I was a "noob". And then all of the sudden I am "trial user".

sixfiveoh · 11-07-2006, 09:32 PM

Right after posting my 1st response, I was upgraded to normal user.

msgrider · 11-28-2006, 08:55 AM

Are you only allowed to post on specific fourms first?

Miracle · 11-28-2006, 08:59 AM

You cant post in Appearance/Cosmetic, Kills, GDD, ANYWHERE in the marketplace, Events and Meets, Sports, Health and fitness, Computers and Gaming, politics, and money and investing.

You have to use the tech forums... nothing else.

You just have to post. If you have 20 posts, and don't have full access, then I would say you need to PM an admin.

SleekAV6 · 01-02-2007, 10:38 AM

While I understand this was implemented to discourage fraud and spammers, it's really annoying for new members who joined to buy something from a member. Such as myself, I visit HT very rarely until I needed a part that HT had, but I can't even contact the seller to let them know I want to buy it. Sucks!

RICKYritethere · 01-02-2007, 01:04 PM

hahah yeahh i wanted to br upgraded so i can buy a car on hondamarketplace hahah i guess its gon take a while! but thanks for this post!

TurboDC2 · 01-11-2007, 08:43 AM

Why can you only post 5 times a day?

Because it reduces the chance of Spam accounts posting up ridiculous amounts of spam, before being banned.

bpham2 · 02-14-2007, 10:51 AM

Will you be allowed to PM after you become a reguler member?
