Title: Old Vendor - Can't Post
Post by: mondomax on March 02, 2013, 04:58 am
I understand the reason for wanting to vet accounts but I am a vendor from over a year ago, have old topics in offers and reviews, and can't post there now. The idea makes sense but it is broken. This is my 50th post. I was lucky to have 39 from before. I feel bad for the rest of you.

Hi mondomax,

If you can think of a way around this, suggestions are always welcome.

Personally, I am reciting Dr. Seuss in the spam thread. Could you give 50 posts to anyone accepted to vendor roundtable?

Moderators do not have the power to do that, no. Administrators can, but by the time they get around to a person's request the member in questions will usually always have reached 50+ posts. As far as I'm aware, this has never been done in any event.

It also isn't fair on people that do not have a vendor account. Simply because one person can afford a vendor account and another cannot, should they be awarded extra privileges here? I don't think so. We already have a two-tier system like that in real-world society, where they who can afford it are privy to more than they who cannot. This is not something we wish to replicate here.
