You mean there isn't a plethora of $500 USA Jacksons here??? WTF??? Was I misled??? OK, I guess I wasted your time here...

Actually I didn't think the classifieds were the "be-all and end-all" of forum classifieds. But it's at least as good as jemsite, right? Right??? I guess I'll find out in about 2 1/2 days...

Actually I was hoping to find a 750XL. But from what I've read, they seem to be rather liked in these parts.... (I hope that isn't seen as breaking a rule. I'm really not fishing for one. Just explaining my desires)

BTW: What is a "spamfest"???

A good eye and Ebay is all you need. If that fails you, one of those cigar box guitars work pretty well.

No, the dress just enhances your fat butt.

Hey at least he has gotten the Idea. He has posted lots more, and is on his way to the great land of CJ Oz where I assume that the San D's are sold for pennies and are delivered by horny virgins from 80's videos past..

I would sell anyone here a nice Esteban Acoustic including the authentic Spanish hat, and colored slim Whitman strings, with no post limit at all. Not a one necessary. I will even carve "custom shop" into the headstock no charge.

OK. I searched for this but didn't really find anything in the same vein so I'm going on a bit of a rant here...

I somewhat understand why they put the post count limit on unlocking the classifieds. Somewhat. But, as you can see by just looking to the left a bit, I've been a member here for a while now, 3 years but my post count is only 40 or so. Why? I don't run off at the mouth. I don't post usually unless I have something to say. I've lurked here for those 3 years, longer if you count the lurking before I became a member. I do "the right thing". I don't post worthless threads. I use the search function to find the answers I'm looking for. You'll never see the totally worthless "+1" ad from me. It's a waste of time and only used to pump up your post count...

But isn't that what this policy really does? Add posts that have no bearing on what was posted? "Dude! That's So Awesome! Wish I had one!", "+1", "THAT ROQUES!". You know the post. Just open one and you'll see about 10 of 'em. But the policy has made this the norm...

Wanting this forum to be a "family" is admirable. But is it really realistic? I didn't just join this forum to access the classifieds, that should be obvious. And I don't really have anything to sell, only looking to see what others have to sell and to spend some of my hard earned cash. But that's impossible until I ad about 60 more responses. I promise I'll try not to be lame...

OK... I'm done...

Well I see your point but from what I've seen post count discussions are always pointless, do not add something or do not improve the board..

Like every other board this board also has its +'s and -'s You register here the way it is, I mean you think there are things to read/learn here and maybe you think you have ideas that you should post here THEN you register here.

If you think having a high post count doesn't mean anything then ignore the post counts. So, although the post count thingy is a minus for the board (according to your point of view) you should just keep contributing the way you always do

Look at Ron / RacerX, he was up to 20k posts and admins reset his post count, he didn't even complain and keeps contributing a lot! All the people think having a high post count or increasing your post count is pointless but most of them still rant about him and his post count in every single thread, DUH!

I mean most of the people DO care for their and others post count but don't act that way. If you "really" think post count is not important "you" should act that way and do not rant about it because it just helps stir the shit
