Default FAQ: Trial User Setup

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by HT Contributor &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">However,

All new users are assigned to 'Trial User' status. For the first 20 days of their membership, trial users are only authorized to post 5 times in any 24 hour period. They are also not allowed to select their own avatars.

Trial members can be identified by their 'Trial User' title, and the obvious Trial User avatar under their name.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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