It would be from the $$ thread you started knowing you didn't have enough posts to qualify.

It won't be lifted until you follow the rules

are you talking on the parts wanted section? i thought that you didn't have to have 50 posts to sell or trade something on that section? If thats the case, ill go buy the rules but is there any way i can get unrestricted so i can check my pms and stuff?

You had heads for sale and said you didn't have enough posts to qualify. Apparently it crossed the desk of Admin to get a restricted.

I'm the one who set you on restricted status, I felt it was a little better than an outright ban. You broke the rules, KNOWING the rules ahead of time. It was your intention to circumvent our rules and policies. I think your restricted status is being pretty lenient.

Your status will remain until it is lifted, likely not until you pass the 6 month / 50 post boundary. I'll warn you ahead of time, post whoring to get to 50 posts will get your counter reset to 0.

so even if i get to 50 posts in the next week or so, you are still going to consider that as me just trying to get up to 50 posts. I wasnt tryign to break any rules or anything like that. i thought that it was ok to sale something without having 50 post on the parts wanted section because i didnt see any restricitons on that FORUM. I wasnt trying to bypass any rules or otherwise i would have just tryed posting it in the for sale section.

That is f-king ignorant. You were trying to "SELL" your heads in the parts "WANTED" forum. So, you knew it was not permitted to sell here without 50 posts, yet you tried to SELL something in another forum.

Please quit playing stupid, we are not sympathetic.

yup.

and you knew you were posting in the incorrect forum and you still did it, why? cus you cant post in the FOR SALE so you tried to bypass it by posting in the WANTED section. you could have easily replied to people looking for heads, but not make a new post about it.

i know, sounds like an echo. just wanted to make sure you understood

Look kid, that lame *** excuse might work on mommy but it won't work here. I consider this discussion closed. If you act like an asshat, you'll be dealt with in kind. We're not here to hold your hand, teach you how to use the internet, etc.
