Anybody out there?!?! How do i talk to an admin

So I've been a member since 2021. In the past couple months I've made a point to be active on here.....waiting fir the opportunity to be able to make a (wts) post,ive told you have to be active for 10 days,you have to reply to others?...ive done this and nothing has changed....ive searched every single option on this site and still cannot figure out how to post in the member classifieds....can someone please help !?!?!?!
 
LOL! On a more serious note, Michael is the person to contact, you can search him and then send him a PM.

Michael

Another option is to report this thread, that should bring it to the attention of all the admins!

The rule is 10 quality posts/comments. You're only at 9 total and realistically only 5 of them would be considered "quality".

Lol well I will post "quality" in the future but right now I'm trying to be a classifieds member so I can post things for sale and buy things
 
Then follow the rules and post some quality stuff to earn your wings. The classifieds are an earned privilege, not a

Then follow the rules and post some quality stuff to earn your wings. The classifieds are an earned privilege, not a right.

I'm not policing you bud. I'm answering your damn question. I know you don't like the answer but take a hint.... No quality posts = no classified privileges. I don't think I can draw this out for you any simpler lol
 
It’s a sore subject for most of us. We have seen threads like this on more than one occasion when someone joins the forum JUST to sell on the classifieds. The rules weee put into place to protect us against scammers, which are all too frequent on forums these days. Many of us are cautious to new members because of this. Throw in a new member having a tantrum, bc his 2 word responses to a bunch of posts aren’t considered “meaningful”, and it puts us all on high alert. I don’t see you as one of these, but some are more cautious than others.
Consider something else. I know how badly you want to buy or sell in the classifieds, but building yourself a name here will help your case as time goes on. Many members will scroll right over your classifieds post strictly bc you have zero feedback, or haven’t posted enough on the forum. We’ve been programmed to see these things as red flags. The more “meaningful” posts you have, the more likely someone will bite on a classified.
Just my 2 cents.

Good luck!

Thanks! I totally understand and that makes perfect since...I post on a few diff fb groups about airgun stuff every now and then and I enjoy talking with other experienced air gunners about tuning,groups,ammo,scopes diff brand guns etc....I also need to sell a gun at the moment and can't on fb I was recommended this site and got on here because of that,I seen right off the bat that this is a very in depth site packed with wonderful content,im not taking that for granted at all I was glad to see that and plan to join some convos,I also like to see that it's set up like it is to weed out scammers,I've just struggled with figuring out how to talk to an admin multiple times and failed lol,ive sent multiple emails with no responce,so yes I'll admit I was frustrated and about to call it quits,my post was a hail marry,I didn't even know if I post was actually posted on the main page or still dont...seem as tho I'm finally getting somewhere with this positive and negative feedback lol,I have 10s of thousands of dollars in my airgun arsenal and have been an airgun geek for a few years now,I would like to share some of my thoughts and findings on here with some more knowledgeable guys. And also so participate in the classifieds.....thanks

You’ll be able to post in no time. Just don’t get discouraged if it doesn’t sell as quickly as you’d like. Also, expect members to want to call you, and request some weird things in pictures, like a picture of the rifle with s note on it dated and your agn name on it. All will help you gain their trust.
Absolutely! Thanks!!
