Thread: permissions and search?

If you use the search function, you'll probably find answers to 4 out of the 5 questions you might want to ask. I know the board members on here aren't too harsh on people who ask questions that have been answered 10 times already, but if you want information on an LAPD AeroDynic, I'm sure there are probably 20 threads on LAPD AeroDynics.

Again, I'm not trying to tell anybody what to do. I'm not a moderator or admin, but I'm just trying to help make your stay at eLightbars a little more pleasant.

Think of me as the Henry Kissinger of the board, if you will.

I have tried to use the search, along with many other common features on this board (ie: opening pictures and attachments) but i have no permissions. i looked through the rules and such (not word for word, but scanned) and found no reason why my account is this way...lol any answers there?

It takes a little time for you to get that privilage. Just be patient. Get some posts in. John and the team will get you on your feet soon.

Welcome aboard!!

Get right into the forums and look around. Alot of the guys take pride when they find those, so scan down through them. It takes a little time but you'll find them. Go into Forums/Vintage-Collectables, you'll find them there. A lot of discussion. They really love those CA spec bars!!

thanks for the reply, it was not about the subject of his post, i just seen it and it reminded me that i have been lightly harassed for not searching, i was an ev-tech for 3 years from 05-07, and used this forum heavily for reference and to clarify things i was unsure of, the search function was invaluable (i rarly posted because 9 out of 10 times i found my awnser. back then i was using the shops comp and the owner had it set up to just stay loged in to his sn). i joined the military and got out of the game for a while now im starting back at it. i have been member here over a year, is there a certain number of posts required to unlock those functions?

Thanks
Matt
