    It's easy to log on at any wi fi area when away from home. Laptop, smart phone, Ipad, ITouch, library, airports, train stations, bus stations, and I found most states Welcome Centers have wi fi now too if you are traveling by car.

    I don't post often, so my status will never change. I have things I would like to post for sale but that won't happen so I will have to use craigslist or ebay.

    ditto to that. Personally I don't think there should be any "ratings". I just like the information about quilting that I receive. I don't have a lot of extra time and would much prefer using my time quilting

    I would think that by having this requirement, it keeps down the chance of getting scammed.I personally feel safe buying things from the people here. If anyone could come on here and offer to sell the first time, then you would have to worry about if you will get anything for your money.

    I don't think the requirement is that hard to achieve. I wasn't even trying and noticed that I had achieved it. I don't even know how long I was a regular before I noticed.

    Happened to me too, when I went on vacation, I even took my computer with me so I could stay caught up. Apparently I didn't comment enough, but when I came home, I got it right back.

    I cut back on the number of postings I made because I always seem to forget to un-check the "watch this topic" choice under the Quick Reply box. Then I get an email everytime anyone posts a reply to those topics. If I do forget, the process of "unwatching" a topic is time consuming (to me) when it has to be tone a lot.

    Personally, I wish they would do away with/or change this requirement for selling stuff here. Especially just for the reason you expressed.

    It would be much better if they could change the rule to "membership for 30 days in order to sell" or something to that effect. JMHO
    sounds like business as usual for my experience

    Really, I couldn't agree more! Some of us have been on this board since its inception and still keep losing our status because we don't post often enough. That's just plain silly.
