Hello,
Wondering why my posts are delayed by a day(sometimes two days). This makes it extremely difficult to have a discussion on my end. If my posts are delayed by a day, than just trying to have a casual conversation or getting answers on my issues would take several days(rather than hours). Thanks. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT 5 Speed

I figured that is what happened here. But how long is the newb "trial period"? This is tough trying to be a new member here when I can't fully participate in active discussions or respond in a timely manner. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT 5 Speed

I know it's a pain to have a timely conversation as a trial member. It's only about 25-30 approved posts. After that, you'll gain full posting privileges. I wish I could put an exact number on it but it has varied with every member so far. I check 6gc a few times a day and approve posts as soon as I see them but I might miss them for a while. I only get notifications of invisible threads that need to be approved, not of individual posts, so if there haven't been any posts in a particular section of the forum then I may miss the post for several hours. I check each individual subforum in the morning and in the evening for invisible posts but I often miss them in the middle of the day for several hours. If there is a post in an old thread then I may not see it for quite a while. If that's the case and a post is taking too long to be approved, don't hesitate to message myself or Rusty and we'll approve it for you.

Thanks for the explanation guys. Appreciate it.
I guess I'll just try and post more in the active threads and try and rack up post counts. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT 5 Speed

Do PMs work for newbs also? Or do they have to be approved as well? I PM'd a seller about buying a car part and they never responded. My money not green enough?

PM's work with no issues. There are a ton of members here that post things for sale then become immediately inactive. Odds are they just haven't logged into the forum or seen your PM.
