Revised Marketplace Restrictions
The staff has decided to lift the marketplace's ten post restriction due to the massive amount of spam it has caused. The criteria to post in the marketplace is now four (4) days of registration. There are no posting restrictions or anything else besides this stopping new members from posting in the market. All currently eligible users have been moved into this category. With this change, all forums now add to your post count.
The same goes for everything that used to require ten posts, users will now be able to have a signature and use the private messaging system after four days.
This amendment to the marketplace rules does not invalidate any other restrictions, all other rules still stand as posted. To see the current version of the rules, go to http://www.talkfreelance.com/rules.php

A happy upside of this new system is that we can start counting posts from all forums towards your visible post count! The counters will take a while to update but shortly they should reflect your actual number of posts made.

I hope this update is accurate because I know I have more than 41 posts in 4 years.

Well, it might still be going into effect, because I had at least 330 to 350 posts, and I don't have near that now so...Not sure what's really going on there...

You seem to have your mind made up and your hopes set, so I won't try to convince you of anything.
