Hey BigMiko, welcome to AcuraZine! We hope you enjoy the site. Please note that during your trial period you will not be able to start threads in the Black Market sections of the site. You also won't be able to use the private message system, or add photos to an album right away either. As soon as you have accrued 5 posts and have been a member for 15 days, you will be granted this ability. If you see this notice and you have exceeded the 5 post and 15 day prerequisite, please wait up to 1 hour for the software to grant you this ability. Posts made in the Black Market, Group Buy, or Regional Forums are not added to your post count.

 

It's so people don't sign up just to scam trustworthy, longtime members. The site owners want people who actually contribute to be able to be trusted with buying and selling items.
