And another 200 posts member!

Congrats! It took me a bit over a year. I thought I would list a watch I have for sale in post #201, but still haven't yet. The thought of something going wrong with the sale stops me every time. If and when I do, maybe I will impose a 200 post requirement to purchase. 😀

Shoot: you’ve been busy! I think it took me nine months to climb into the 200’s

Ahhh yes... well don't be shy😟 You chaps need to worry less about accuracy or relavence of content and be a little more 'fakkin' impetuous, imaginitive and creative. You can always edit in some good taste, accuracy, common sense and relevance at a later date.😲
Best to just tap out a reply or message without thinking too much about whether or not your contributions amount to 'total and utter bollocks'.😕 The more well informed members will filter out anything that is meaningless. As time goes by I am slowly absorbing their knowledge and learning more about horology. This process should result in a shift in the proportion of 'meaningful contribution' Versus 'complete bollocks'.

It works well for me! And this reply is yet another prime example of the kind of 'impetuous bollocks' that is propelling me upwards to my 1000th post! 😁

I'm just not very verbose. Been a member here for over 6 mo. and I'm not sure i'll ever get there. Oh well...nothing I want to sell as of now but it would be nice to post in the wtb section.

I'm with you there. I haven't got too much to say but plenty to learn.

Oh don't worry about that mate... you'll get 200 people wishing you "good luck with the sale"..... not making any offers, just wishing you "good luck"!🙁 You'll be thinking..."Good luck!...😕 Good 'Fakkin' luck???😡 Listen mate!...just buy my watch and I'll make my own 'fakkin' luck!"😁

I think you'll be ok as you can't do anything in the sales forum without 200 posts--reply, contact the seller, etc.

You can’t post in the FS/WTB fora with under 200 post but you can PM the seller with zero posts

I have been on this for a year now and I am only halfway there. I spend a lot of time in the forum but I guess as someone who does not know anything about watches but has great love for anything Omega I do not have a whole lot to add 🙁

It has been a great year for me here, and I have come to know some great members got a lot of valuable information and direction from them for FREE. You can't have more fun with your clothes on 😁

Thanks for the correction Peemacgee 👍

Congratulations. I too have been a frequent user of the forum for the last year or so, but I have posted only rarely as I have been intent on learning from others. I've purchased several watches from the OF private sales forum, so have benefited there too. I look forward to seeing your future posts, including your first watch for sale post.

i dint even notice i reached over the minimum limit with no idea when. probably due to my eager way of sharing and learning in the process.

And another 200 posts member!
