      Adam,
       
      I spoke with Shane regarding your PM's and was told that you must be a member for 10 days not 5 in order to PM.  Can you post a link to the thread that was locked and we will try to help you.

              Correction, it's 5 days and 10 posts.  But 5 complete days (120 hours).

                  You mean the thread that was locked for not following the Forums TOS for selling that you ignored the moderators warnings and kept trying to make a sale in?
                  http://www.evga.com/forums/tm.aspx?m=1686959
                  If your still trying to subvert the forums rules for selling/buying threw PM's shame on you.

                      You don't need to ,you need to follow the EVGA forums TOS and make your post corrected.A mod has nothing to do with you following the stated guidelines for posting in that section.You still have not corrected your post anyways,maybe once you have a mod will unlock it .

                          You mean the thread that was locked for not following the Forums TOS for selling that you ignored the moderators warnings and kept trying to make a sale in?

                          If your still trying to subvert the forums rules for selling/buying threw PM's shame on you.

                          I dont know what this going around the rules thing was either I was simply trying to reply to PM's sent to me 
                           
                          Which I still cant do and its been over 5 days

                            then you need to read the link the Moderator posted about WTB and for Sale threads,its very clear what is expected and needed .
                            since you couldnt be bothered to read it ill post the entire thing for you......
                             
                             
                            Afterburner


                            Please note the rules that have been in place for a very looooooong time now. We are starting to get to many complaints. Please help us keep the EVGA marketplace and follow the rules! See the highlighted portion below for a speedy explanation...

                            And for your viewing pleasure. Just look at every single WTB thread on the first page. Not a single one has followed any of the rules. Not one.

                            http://www.evga.com/forums/tm.aspx?m=365062

                            Requirements to post a sale or trade:  

                            • You must have a minimum of 50 posts on our forums to participate.
                            • You must have a link to your Heatware Profile in your post. (You can link any other feedback pages you currently have, but Heatware is required).
                            • Heatware may be listed in your Sig, but we do ask that it is also listed in the OP.
                            • You must include the following for each item:  
                              • Picture with your forum name and date included in frame, handwritten. (Example)
                              • Part Number of the product you are selling Link to manufacturer or retailer for specs if applicable Condition (New in box, Used almost new, Used, Defective in some way, etc.)
                              • Exact Price Means of payment accepted

                             

                            If it's a trade - you must specifically link to exactly what you are willing to trade for using the same rules in #3 above.    

                             

                            If you are simply offering something for free only to charge shipping - you must still follow the rules above.    

                             

                            Consolidate threads! If you have multiple products for sale, combine them all into the same thread.

                             




                            In order to reply to a sale [

                            You must follow the same rules as above, obviously excluding the picture of the item.  EVGA highly recommends linking to a specs page so everyone is clear on the matter.  When replying to a sale, you must also link your heatware profile in your post. 

                            Perfect "WTB" thread: 

                            ORIGINAL:  Antizax    

                             

                            -Any model# will do.   

                            -Used/new doesn't matter as long as its fully functional.   

                            -looking for one for 100 shipped or less.   

                            -I will pay by Paypal, money order.   

                            -HEATWARE if you want.

                              You have only been a member for 6 days and you already trying to buy/sell things in the marketplace?

                              Honistly i think they should require having one registered product, and maybe get a little thing in your post or profile thay says "confirmed buyer" or something.
                               
                              The PM thing is to help prevent PM spam and scams... heck it should be like 30 days.
                               
                              Because what do scammers do? They hit and run, take someone money are product and bail out as quick as they can. So the longer they have to wait the less likely they are going to do it... because time is money.

                                  The reason the rules are in place is to protect people from scams.

                                  Honistly i think they should require having one registered product, and maybe get a little thing in your post or profile thay says "confirmed buyer" or something.

                                  The PM thing is to help prevent PM spam and scams... heck it should be like 30 days.

                                  Because what do scammers do? They hit and run, take someone money are product and bail out as quick as they can. So the longer they have to wait the less likely they are going to do it... because time is money.

                                  Ok 3 things 1 I have registerd a product 2 I understand the scams thing so its all understandable to me 3. Your signature is aweomse lol

                                        I still like the idea of having some way to prove that you have a registered product though. so many people can say it but there is no way to prove it.

                                          To the OP, since it wouldn't let you PM a mod to unlock the thread to correct it you could have reported the post in the thread you wanted to correct. The report button is in the bottom left corner of your post and looks like a red sharpie making a circle. Then simply stated that you were ready to correct the post to follow the T.O.S and it would have been unlocked.

                                                So much hostility in this thread.  I eat customer service reps like you for breakfast. 
                                                 
                                                Come at me bro, I've got corporate's number on speed dial.  I might even message the CEO ;)
