i don't know if i keep missing it or i just can't find it
can anyone guide me to it? thank you in advance!
I believe you need a minimum number of posts to unlock the market. Not sure how many though.
Marketplace rules found in the main rule (top right hand button) but also linked here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?a=81
Minimum of 8 posts required.

thank you. I've been using XDA for at least a 2 years now, but never really post because there are always SO MANY people making unnecessary comments in informative threads that I don't want to add to the page counts
Not to bump an old thread (though it shows I searched lol), but I've got more than 8 posts, but still don't see the marketplace. Does it take a while to update?

Do not, bump a year old post, try getting to 30 posts and see if it works, if not pm a mod.

Agreed. Sometimes they'll post a one word comment, like "Cool!", and their signature block will be half a mile long.
When I try logging in with my XDA credentials, I keep getting told I will receive an email....yet nothing comes through.
Works well guys!

Think that's right.
Until you get the necessary number of posts, PM is your only choice that I know of.
Thank you all
thanks for your reply
i will try using pms till i get 10 posts
PM is too much work,but i know other people who are having the same problem
I think there should be a provision that after a certain number of days, one can post in the dev sections.
I've been doing some testing on my phone but whenever I want to post my thoughts, I get that message.
Inevitably, I now find myself facing a big problem that needs advanced answers but I can't post in the DEV sections. For all the good that XDA has given me, this one single drawback is steadily nullifying it all.

You could always send the dev for that rom a pm to ask them the question. I'm sure they will be able to help you.
Hi,
To post in the forums, where I can ask for and give help, I need to have posted at least 10 times. I cannot even thank TRusselo who wrote the Newbie guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1041206
I could consider this one of the 10, but this is just creating a mess in the CMS for this site.
Or is there a forum where I can do a quick post 10 times, which a moderator will purge monthly

It's to weed out helpful people.
If they're helpful, they leave before they get 10 posts.

Aah, your timezone is set wrongly. XDA does not yet know which timezone you are in.
At the top of this page, to the left of "Welcome squallrblade", click on User CP.
On the left, select "Edit options", under "Settings and Options". Halfway down, set your timezone.
Why you are 4 mins off, I have no idea. Either the server or your wall clock is off.

Sweet, thank you
this rule is really disturbing...
Most of my questions are related to AmericanAndroid, but I can't post them there... until I reach the 10 posts limit... Maybe we can use this thread to upgrade our posts limit...

Yes, and that way, the thread can be deleted without a thought later
If we are going to do that, might as well as use it as a sandbox, to learn formatting, etc.
Whos helpful? Yeah. It's annoying. I need a few more myself.
I'm such a forum geek too. If you added up my posts from everywhere I post it's over 25,000 and they started in the 1990's.
I hit the magic 10 and still cant post in the Litening Rom 2.2 forum?

Oh dear. I just reviewed a forum I had been a member of for about 2 and a half years and I racked up around 14000 posts.
bacause you are n00b. just like the vid in reg page. same same like me here. need gaining post
and then you will get
1. To prevent spam to the forums, new users must wait five minutes between posts. All new user accounts will be verified by moderators before this restriction is removed.
9 post means 9 times 5 equal 45min more or less
congrats
2 messages i send to moderators , missing
10 posts i posted deleted..
whats next? close my account???
The 10 posts missing could be two things
1. Somtimes the system updates and posts gomissing for a short while, but come back.
2. The manner of your ten posts, if you simply went onto a thread and said somthing like "thanks for this usefull thread", then this is seen a spamming to get upto your first ten posts, and Mods will remove these types of posts.
As for your two pm's going missing, unless you clicked save to send folder before you sent the pm's then they will not show up in your send folder.
I hope this has cleared up a few of the issues you are having.

Well , i understand that this is a very big forum , and must have rulles to function , but how can i post usefull thinks in general? believe me i tried.
General is general. i dont know about roms , i m not interested about hacking , i m a developer . i m interested in developing apps. Thats it.
One good way in which to reach your 10 posts, is go to all the Q&A forums and look to see if you know the answer to other members problems and before you know it you will have your 10 posts. Also if you go to about XDA forum their is a thread their call How to be a new user, their are some tips their on how to get your first 10 posts.

Is this normal??
You would need to contact a S-Mod via PM and ask have your posts been removed or is their tenical issue, reason, for them going missing.
You also need to be aware that many people join this forum claiming to be "interested in developing for Android", and all they ever do is post questions in the Dev forums which don't belong there. The Dev forum is not the right place to ask questions about how to develop apps and things.
If you use the search function, you will find there are guides on XDA for the basics in Android development which you should read and then start learning.

Do you really want the dev threads full of people who played the ban game 10 times to get in there and who made no efforts to actually help someone first just to post "Thanks for a great ROM" or something similarly insightful?

I sended 2 PMs but they are missing too... thats weird.
Any way i dont know whats happening , maybe a technical issue
But even if some of my 10 posts are against the forum rulles ( I didn't do it on purpose) why deleting all my posts?

Depends on the mod and their mood, some of them will just remove a few posts to try to make people understand that they are not following the rules, some of them may simply wipe the slate clean since it is faster and easier than picking through what may appear to be non-contributory posts to leave a couple of adequate posts. Also as s.d.oconnor stated, unless you checked the box to save your PM's in Sent Items they will not be saved automatically. Mods don't delete PMs.

The 10 post rule was put in place to make new users think, and hopefully contribute and help others by making useful posts rather than the usual crap like "thanks", "kewl" etc or ask questions which have been asked countless times before. They still have access to dev forums, just cannot post in them. Its not a massive restriction and to provide 10 useful/helpful posts is not hard.

It does sound like a Tec issue or a bit of both, but i would recomend waiting 24 hrs and see if soem or all of your missing posts reapear, and if not then you contact a S-Mod, and explain what has happend, they would then be able to tell you if your posts were removed and why or if it's a Tec issue they would pass the infomation onto an admin.
Any way , thank you all for your answers , i ve allready sended 2 PMs , maybe a technical issue , i ll wait for an answer from the mods.
10 post rule has to be rethought
Hi,
this rule for 10 posts is not very good.
how should i post, for example a patched version of rom when i cannot write in the dev. board ?
please dont get me wrong, but in my eyes this is not helpful.

Au contraire....the rule for 10 posts is very good, when compared to the alternatives. Threads full of spam posts selling whatever junk of the week? 1000's of "Thanks for a great ROM" posts to wade through to find a reply to a question asked a few hours before...not much better. Teenagers using every thread for chit-chat. If you prefer an Android site like that I can assure you there are many out there. Funny thing though, all of them seem to link back to content here....after you get past the gauntlet above.

Hi!
I am wondering if I need to fulfill the 10 post requirement for the forum in order to be able to see links for downloads to help me with rooting my phone? I found a post online directing me to a thread here. I am a bit handicapped in that we have no ISP available at my home so I am only able to sporadically be online when I can get to WiFi so I may not see a reply for a bit, but I am hoping someone can tell me the best way to get to the point where I can root my phone. I have a Motorola MB525 with 2.2.2. Only a few things that I would like for functionality that sent me looking for ways to root my system, but mostly because I hate sending and receiving texts and not being able to see the emojis! and sometimes missing the tone of the message with mystery emojis! :silly:
Thank you in advance for your time and reply,
