The rules are here. Here are a couple that apply to your situation.
2. You must have achieved a minimum of Senior Member status.
3. You must have posted a minimum of 20 times, during the most recent 14 days, in sections that relate to quilting. Recipes, Links & Resources, General ChitChat, Blogs, Thrift Shop (Both Sell & Buy), and Requests for Donations do not count.

"You must post 20 times in 14 days..." that sounds a bit onerous. Especially, since it doesn't apply to many forums!
I read all new posts, seldom do I post a response. With family medical issues, there will be weeks I don't post.
how about the fact we are not experts on all topics and should not be posting on things we don't know.

the rules were made necessary by the flood of people [many years ago, now] who only wanted to sell for profit without ever contributing anything useful to our community. also, in far too many cases they were taking advantage of the number of new quilters here and charging reeeediculous prices to people they knew wouldn't know they were being overcharged.
it shouldn't seem too much to ask that people make a meaningful contribution to QB content before they want to sell something. after all, we are not a marketplace site. we are a "share information and show-off-our-work" site. :-)
