    Sorry Blakey, but the I am not seeing any issues that aren't pro shop related. I'd argue the the last 3 "blow ups" are all pro shop / selling rules related.

    Apart from that I see a lot of quality interaction - both ways - from newbs and the forum alike.

    A shaving forum? What are your thoughts on JDM vs USDM razors?
    Cinderella story, out of nowhere, former greenskeeper, now about to become a Masters champion..... It looks like a mirac.. It's in the hole! It's in the hole!

    That may be true of late. But the pro shop limit thing is relatively new for our 11yo forum. Plenty have been run out of town for all sorts of reasons.

    J didn't join the forum to post off topic junk, but rather a place to get helpful info. tips and advice on my game. It would be a bonus to sell a club I have no use for and could help someone on here gain something too.

    While you may be an exception, if the limit were not in place, anyone could just join and use this place like a buy and sell.

    40 posts is absolutely nothing. I am not sure how many times you have posted today, but you must have knocked off 10% of the requirement in about 38 seconds of total typing.

    Shaving forum? Really?

    Blakey is right Benno. There is a long history of not being very friendly toward newer members that may have said one small thing to upset the masses.

    Certain members are very protective of the forum; whilst others seem to carry a sense of entitlement.

    Good lord people!

    How have we had 27 posts since this and not one has said "It takes Juan to know Juan"!?

    I wish I had my time over again.

    I'd make a post each day in the 'What did you shoot?', NTP, Winning and 'Things I Like' threads, saying how good my TM OMG XX SuperTrust performs.

    On the 41st day, I'd advertise it in the pro shop.

    It would be a good ad too - "For Sale - Excellent club for mid length Par 3's"

I'm not keen on eBay fees as I takes the sale not worth the hassle - however I have no chance of making the required specs to post the sale.
    You just inadvertently did.
