Did you read one of the many threads containing the rules and guidelines for posting things for sale?

I'd bet that you didn't bother....


Here's one: https://cbrforum.com/forum/cbr1000f-...ing-ad-123173/
If you still are wondering how to get your ad to show up AFTER you've read through the posting guidelines, an Administrator or Moderator will be happy to explain it to you.

Yes I read the threads but maybe I missed some. I kept thinking because I got the message a moderator would approve the thread I would get a response. I am guessing not now.

The 100 post count thing is a bit ridiculous. I thought if a moderator saw a legitimate thread then they would allow other members to benefit by getting to see the item. Having been a member here for quite a while I would think that would count but being a lurker doesn't seem to mean much...lol

Lurking doesn't count for anything. Participation is everything to a forum.

The 100 post rule is a good guideline, but not everyone sees it that way. Those who don't are almost always new members with stuff to sell.... We are not Ebay. We are not Craigslist. We are a motorcycle forum and community first and foremost. Sometimes members can help other members with stuff needed for their ride, but we like to know who we are dealing with before financial transactions take place. Thus 100 posts is an acceptable level to separate the scammers from the members with good intention. It's not fool proof, but it helps.
