Is it me, or are we missing a 'marketplace'?

Looks like I'll be contributing my 2¢ more often from now on.
And still, I won't be able to even view it until then? What about contributing members?
Correct. You need to meet both requirements to even view it ... and please don't go making one-word or useless posts just to reach the 250-post limit.

Correct. Contributing to the site does not open up access to an avatar or the marketplace early.
Yes, I understand the whole point is for members to contribute something helpful, rather than spam.
IMHO a financial contribution should be just as valuable as a helpful post.
While I understand your point, it isn't about buying a way to access these things - anyone can do that - we are looking to establish a sense of community through posting contributions.
I think allowing contributing members automatically would open the door to more commercial posts, since those who want to make money like this are most likely not going to post elsewhere.
Wouldn't 'dealers' be required to have a commercial account with additional rules and their own section of the forum?
They simply aren't welcome here. If they want to sell stuff, they can build their own websites or discuss advertising with Arn.
Dealers are not allowed to sell here, but you may see members with a Vendor tag - they are allowed to use the forums, but not advertise.
