Merlin, if you want a mod to answer a question, it's probably best to send one of us a PM -- we don't read through every single post. Since you are a vendor and say you've been here for awhile, then you need 35+ transactions, a link to your vendor profile here in your forum signature, and then to send a message to inigo requesting access to the vendor forum. If he grants you access to the vendor forum, then you can post anywhere on the forums regardless of your post count. Yes, you have other things to do with your life than post 50 times ... just like we have other things to do with our time here than delete ridiculous scam spam for 18+ hours a day. A little understanding goes a long way. Like I said, if you have 35+ transactions and a link to your vendor profile in your signature here, you can send inigo a message and ask to be let in to the vendor forum.
