They can't -- hence the 200 post rule. It is relaxed for those that have a history selling on other forums.
I have a history of selling in the forums. I am not able to sell here yet unfortunately until I hit 200...

Yes but by the looks of it you'll be there in no time. This isn't a race and I for one prefer something constructive. Might want to slow it down a little...

Hopefully they increase the number for this guy, or not let him on ever. It's clear he's post farming.

Hey [emoji15] I've know that name rolemachine
Didnt he say I was a ........................

That's Ok Dennis. I'm sure he didnt mean it. No offence taken . If he really needs 200 posts , why not just deduct them from my account & give it to him[emoji3] . I wouldn't mind at all Sir !

The way I figured , my posts to likes ratio will climb P : L > 2.0 [emoji14]

Looks like @Taddyangle is the benchmark in this department. 4.1:1 is just crazy.

Darlinboy has a 5.3 : 1 ratio
styggpyggeno1 has a 7.9 : 1 ratio
Dammit! I thought I had edged it with 5.9:1 .... 7.9 is unassailable 😵‍💫

I expect to hit a double double in year 2025. Could be the same year my Ed White also hits $25,000. I am pretty excited about the future.

before you accuse me of not posting quality or post that make sense, did you even take the time to read some of the things i wrote rather than judge me and report to the mods what i am allegedly doing? is this the kind of people who are in this forum?

Well at least we got one thing straight here. The law applies to everyone or it does not apply to anyone. For people who have 128 post and are allowed to sell only means that the 200 post rule isnt really a rule but rather a rule that only applies to the few. I guess we can safely say that there is favoritism here? or perhaps the sellers who know someone from the inside can bypass this rule. That is the only explanation I can see when there is a rule in place and it is not followed by the ones who are supposed to inf orce that rule.

Actually what it means is that people with less then 200 posts who want to sell, and have a good selling history elsewhere (which you elude to having yourself) took the time to write to the Mods to ask for permission. This type of 'exception' is clearly spelled out:

"It is possible to apply for exception from the 200 post rule. We will look at your feedback, references and length of membership and decide appropriately. This is for under 200 posts.
If you need to reach out to any forum moderator please feel free to do so with any questions you might have. If you feel you have listed items and you can no longer see these listings and have feedback to which we can manually add you to these forums please let us know, the feedback has to be from THIS FORUM with FORUM MEMBERS.
