Glad to have GeekHack back! But I sadly notice that the group buy board is lost...

Looks like you need to have enough posts to see it, not sure how many.

Someone mentioned that you just need to make one post for it to show up. Not really sure what is going on there though. Just give the forum team a little time to sort out some of the kinks ;) .


Edit: Actually this is what mkawa said in the newbie forum



This is geekhack. We like keyboards, keycaps, making stuff, long walks on the beach, etc. Introduce yourself here, and then browse the rest of the non-commercial forums. Once you accumulate enough experience, you will automatically be allowed to view the commercial portion of the forums.


Thanks folks!

Well you still need to see the status of group buys you participated in before.

How many posts is considered enough?

What about time being a member or previous purchases? That should count for something.

I'm too much of a lurker to see the group buys.  I have purchased a few things from group buys before, but generally stick to PM's and emails..

I guess i'll have to post some more photos :D.  I fail at reading the captcha's, too :(

Ah And so I thought I only need 1 post on the new forum. It's quite weird that I'm typing on a Poker from GH group buy and can't access the forum :D It's pretty bad for lurkers like me who don't speak English as their main language but there's no better way I guess.

I was just lurking around and waiting checking regularly for something that would interest me. Now I'll have to post some less than constructive posts to reach the post count. Feels to me like this will just reduce the potential participants for group buys.
