i made my first post about 3 weeks ago today and im just wondering how long is normal to wait. i honestly dont even know if this post will get posted, but i dont know what else to do. ive read about several nice busses on here and would like to share my experiences. thanks.

Welcome to the forum, unfortunatly some new posts get caught in the spam and get deleted. Somedays we get over 2000 spam posts. But you are here now, please share your experiences. And of course if you have pictures, please post them....

i just made another post in the short bus section. it also needs to be approved. will all my posts need to be approved? i dont really want to keep remaking my build thread over and over, this will be the second one ive made.

the 2nd build thread i tried to start in the shortbus forum was declined because of the following.

"The message contains links to illegal or pirated software"

it was links to facebook pictures of the bus, not pirated software. your website said it had met its quota and wouldnt let me upload pictures. your photo section wont let new people join it. im not creating a new account at a picture hosting site. i have never had such a hard time joining a forum.

guess it was never meant to be. i was so looking forward to showing off our sweet camo short bus and getting a little feedback with problems.

no worries, best thing is free picture hosting like photobucket dot com

for somereason the chinese bots love this site 3000 spam accounts daily

after like five posts you will be good to go, heck answer this a few times and it should be good

Sorry you are having such a tough time!
It really is a joke the way this simple message board is being run. Unfortunately only the admin has the power to really make some changes and so far he is basically MIA in the time that I've been around here.
I too have had problems posting large write ups on other boards and I understand how frustrating it is when a bunch of your time and energy is just vaporized. I've since made a habit of copy and pasting my post to Word or notepad before I send it off.

Like Bansil mentioned... after a small amount of posts you will be set free to post in real time. Imagine that! A message board that allows users to post messages without getting approval.

thanks for the welcomes, man i have never been so frustrated trying to join a forum. i waited 3 weeks for my first post to be approved, never got an email saying it was approved or denied.
