From this time forward, NONE of the classifieds sections will be visible to any member with less than 50 posts (within the 'New Member') membergroup. Once you reach 'Rookie', you will be able to view and post within these sections.

This move has been actioned to prevent..

- Items for sale from members that are not yet 'known' within the community
- Fraudulant enquiries made by new members for items sold by trusted members
- Prevent new memberships ONLY to sell a vehicle/parts.

We welcome your feedback on this move.

Many thanks,

ClubCalibra.com Moderation Team

Personally would have lessened that to around 50, but good call, been waiting for this for a while! ;)

good move...i think i'm hitting somewhere around 90-ish posts at the minute, and I'm still getting to know people, and I'm sure they're still getting to know me.

read a few posts on here about folk gettin done over, so yeah, good move
Pure quality! :D

Chav.. the 3 plugs are not what you describe, because there is another 3 that are the ones you say.

I bought my SE8 off a Lad who had a lot less than 50 posts and got a right bargain to boot, but I do agree with this decision because there are more than enough people out there willing to rip people off and this will help to stop the opportunist

Doing some more work to sort out the problems here - can you all notify me if Classifieds sections have disappeared, or if you no longer have access to them? I'll be on Gabbly, please pop on there to discuss...

Mick, out of curiosity can you see any Classifieds forums?

Another test, can you try going here and tell me what happens?
