Default hondatech DOT com Rant

Ummmm... why is that website fuckin stupid? I register so i can finally post some shit and get into the conversations and shit, and they have all kinds of stupid restrictions when ur a "trial user" or some shit?

Number one - I made my first post last night posting some pics of my car you know, introducing myself, all that bullshit. So i get on today after work, and theres like 5 replys, some people asking me questions, and another saying i posted it in wrong section and he moved it for me. Well, he moved it to a section, me being a "trial user", am not allowed to post in. lol wtf. so now i cant even answer the damn questions i was asked from other users.

Number two - so i thought no big deal, ill post a bit, i think the limit is 10 posts then ur not a trial anymore, so i went around the bored, saying my 2 cents, getting up to 10. so im at like 8 or some shit and i go to post and i get another error message.

You are not authorized to post more than 5 messages per 24 hour period. Please try again later.
WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT!? who the fuck only posts 5 times a day. fuckin shit is stupid as fuck, so now i gotta wait till tomorrow, so i can post 2 more times, just so i can reply to those who asked me questions. And to top it off, i dont even know for sure if 10 posts will make me a real user lol. fuckin retarded

It is pretty rediculous I agree. I signed up 4 years ago and posted 5 times total I think. I just go on there to look around at different information.

Dude it's not that big of a deal. Hondatech is awesome.

They do it because they don't want scammers or bots coming on the forum. Just make a post here and there a couple times a day, and in less than a week you will be a normal user/member. The mods can be strict, but it's a good thing.

They do it to cut down on posts like these that are in the "Honda/Acura TECH" forum....this isn't a rant forum. Deal with it, follow the rules. H-T is a great site with a ton of information and good people advancing sport compact racing.

This is for Honda/Acura TECHNICAL information. Not rant threads about HondaTech's systems/policies. ^ It's really not that stupid, if you are a real member and not a bot or a spammer, you shouldn't have a problem with 5 posts a day for less than a week. Like I said just post a few times in the delsol forum, answer a few questions for people and before you know it you will be a normal user.
