    You're managing to do it. ???? Also duplicating them. Your first post, the for sale in the wrong forum, was a new post.

    It also looks like 2 different people posting as the first one looks like someone that's very familiar with forums (except rules etc.) including posting pictures which usually stumps even some very active forum crawlers.

    What exactly are you trying to do that you're struggling with?

    If you're looking for a tutorial, or an "online class" on forums, no there isn't.

    Test Forum - Texas Gun Talk

    That's a test forum which if you need to test posting pictures, creating new threads, reply, etc. you'd do there.

    But you've done all that so it doesn't seem you don't know your way around a forum, and again, even posted a complete for sale ad, although in the wrong forum and not following forum rules.

    If you compare that first thread, it includes good grammar, spelling, punctuation, as many pictures as the forum would allow you to post before hitting your limit (you even commented you hit the limit)... but most of the rest of the posts, it seems to be a different person.

    As phatcyclist asked, and since there isn't really a such thing as a tutorial or how-to, what exactly are you having a problem with, or are trying to do that you haven't already been doing?

    If you're saying you were simply making posts to get your post count (number of posts you've made since becoming a member) up to 5 so you could post a in the Classified Forum, based on that and the nature of most of your posts, most of your posts should actually be deleted.

    If you're trying to "get in to" the classified forum, no one is restricted from it. You can get into the forum. The 5 post thing is just a rule to keep people from registering just to try to sell an item in the Classified section. 5 posts is nothing, but the idea is to make sure before you try to sell, you're an active participant on the forum and not just trying to get free ad space.

    You probably ought to send a PM to to Texas1911 (owns the site) so he can fix you up and/or move your for sale ad to the right forum and clean up anything that needs cleaning up.
