How can I contact the moderator about the 50-post rule?


Recommended Posts

I was a regular here two years ago, while I was preparing to homeschool my daughter for a 4-year sailing trip. With great, huge sadness we've had to indefinitely postpone our plans.

 

I did SO much research and got SO much gret advice from you lovely folks about books and material... I now find myself with thousands of dollars worth of high school books and we've had to cancel our travel (and consequently home-school) plans :(

 

I came back here to post my books on the For Sale page, but it tells me I need 50 posts before I can do so. I guess all my older posts no longer count.

 

I feel like a lot of you would like the materials we bought, and I'm only listing them for what I paid... so it's not like I'm a commericial venture (which I assume the 50-post rule is about.) Does anyone know whether there's any way to have that waived? I'd hate to just post empty, dumb replies to threads just to make the 50-post quota :(

 

Thanks for all your input earlier. I'm really sad that we're not going to be doing this :(

Well, I sure feel silly now! There. 50 posts? I'll go over to the For Sale board and try again.

Thanks you all.

See. Now I'm even more sad not to be doing this homeschool thing.... you guys are great :)

 

 

Please don't be sad. Sorry about the change in your plans. Glad that this is straightened out for you and we can look at the great stuff you probably have for sale.
