This "Trial" thing is disappointing. I need to PM a dealer in the marketplace!

It's better than having a butt load of spam accounts.

Yes. This was answered before.

Once you become regular member, how would you PM? Will there be a new icon for PM'ing someone?

My account says that I'm a "Normal User" and "Unrestricted User" but I still can't PM. Do you know why?

Thanks in advance for your help.

On the top right of each page, there's a link to your profile, it looks like this:

My Profile

It has the "Instant Messenger" in it to track your current Instant Messages.

But, to PM a person directly, you click their username next to their post (or find it in the Member List), and send them an Instant Message.

Welcome to Honda-Tech.

NAmiata · 02-24-2007, 11:25 PM

This is an annoying feature but understandable. I don't even have a honda but I'm hoping to find some 4x100 rims so access to the marketplace would be cool. oh well

mofo951 · 02-25-2007, 11:25 AM

Ahh....so this is what a Trial user is. At first I was like wtf, do i have to pay for this shit? I agree this a pretty f'd up feature especially your looking to buy a car or parts and can't contact the seller what so ever! But, I can also see why they implemented this feature as well! Damn, I guess I gotta wait then....

The registration page hasn't been updated in a very long time. I don't believe George is the one who wrote it initially, so therefore he hasn't changed it.

Vytfool · 03-10-2007, 01:13 AM

So you have to post 20 times? or post once and wait 20 days? sorry for my newbness.. i had this account for so long but was too noob to check out the faqs =[

It's all there in black and white. Yes, you do have to post 20 times. I've seen accounts fully activated quicker, but the safe number is 20.

metalman · 03-13-2007, 09:10 PM

Well, that kind of sucks because I want to buy a car from the forum but can't. I've been a member for nearly 3 years but have never posted because I only use this site for research and what not, I post on ************.com instead. I'm hoping this post will give me my status to PM...

metalman · 03-13-2007, 09:12 PM

Yes!!! It worked

imroadk1ll · 03-14-2007, 12:05 AM

An admin/moderator gave him/her that, due to a kind act they did, or being rather helpful.

imroadk1ll · 03-14-2007, 12:33 AM

oh, ive seen you do a lot of help you should get one

Percentages don't mean jack until they drop below a certain number, then it affects avatars, post counts, PM's etc. More than 100% is just window dressing.

Percentages get docked by mods for people violating TOS, posting stupid topics/replys, etc.

I am a new member in my trial period and am interesting in buying an exhaust I saw posted in the Socal marketplace by Bluewind. How can I get in contact with him to purchase?

You're going to have to wait it out, like the rest of us.
