NEW MEMBERS - READ THIS! Private Messages: You can receive and reply to private messages, but you cannot start new private messages. Why? Because too many spammers have ruined it for you and this protects our members. Ten Days, Ten Posts: Once you have been with us for at least 10-days and made at least 10 public posts in other forums outside of the Trading Post, you can automatically move out of New Member status and start sending your own private messages. So how do you contact a seller? Post publicly in their thread. Ask them to contact you. Don't provide a phone number or email address publicly. That's dumb. People will spam you. Don't haggle with them publicly. All negotiating happens in private. Want to skip ahead to the good stuff? Want to send private messages NOW? All of the above can be bypassed by becoming a Benefactor member. You can do that by clicking here. A Benefactor membership is a cheap way to support the TGO community monetarily. It gives you the ability to make non-commercial ads in our Trading Post forums. It bypasses all of the new member restrictions. Our Benefactor members truly have "skin in the game" and are the lifeblood of TGO. We hope that you will consider becoming one, if not now - down the road.

FOLKS... BE WARNED AND BE AWARE! The conversations shown above are actual messages that some of our members have received via Private Messaging from people who are attempting to scam them. These are just a few examples. The routine is almost always the same. Someone with a new account and low-to-no post count will message you privately about something you posted in our Trading Post forms, and either tell you that they know someone who has the item you want to buy, or that they know someone who wants to buy the item you are selling. REPORT ANY SUCH MESSAGES TO THE MODERATORS, IMMEDIATELY! Again, these are just examples and not every person who contacts you about your ad postings is going to be a scammer, but you should always trust your gut instincts. If something seems fishy, there is no harm in reporting it to the Staff before you take any further action. We are always glad to investigate for you! Be safe out there!
