I'm a 4 year member with only 70 posts. And that's my problem not the forum's. But forum rules, which I do not object to, bars me from posting in the General Discussion forum due to the 200 post requirement.
Consequently, I rarely read anything posted in General Discussion, because if I cannot post in it, why even read it? Further I come to M4C for technical information, not general blather. But today I was rather surprised to read this:
"Do not gift funds using paypal to transact business with parties that are unknown to you. Do not do it. Treat anyone who asks for this payment type as a scam, unless you know them, and actually would trust them not to take your money. "
I rarely post anything for sale and rarely buy anything through EE, but this information, advise and warning is important to all members, and not just to those with over 200 posts.
My gripe is that it is not mentioned at all in any of the EE rules, and is only posted in a forum that ALL Members cannot partake in comment or discussion. So posters with less than 200 posts may not even read it or even be aware of it.
Please make this warning available to the entire membership and post it prominently.
Thank you.
