Mainly want to draw reference to the following post:

http://www.qcdn.org/ffxi/showthread.php?t=43976

As you can see, a lot of interaction has happened in this topic. However, the vast majority of users cannot post replies to topics on that board. This can cause problems in multiple ways. The most obvious is that someone with access posts a reply saying "I want that" and another user doesn't have that option so maybe sends a pm or something but the post in the topic is viewed by the OP first so he gives it to them. Another is that the people who magically have access to post replies (some of which are mods and some of which aren't) can post whatever they want to, bump topics for someone who isn't surfing the boards regularly whereas not everyone has that luxury, etc.

So I guess where I'm going with this is... this needs to be fixed. Either ANYONE should be able to reply to topics on the AH board or NO ONE. The current situation allows for bias or unfair leverage in closing a deal. Thanks for reading.
 
I'm one of the users that is having the problem and isn't able to reply to that topic. :(
 
I looked a little more closely at user settings and there doesn't appear to be any outstandingly obvious differences between Sneakypants / Queierieriaeien and Zerayla. I thought forum layout might play a part, but it doesn't.

Nox / Reeve need to check it from the admin panel.

I wanted to buy something 2 days ago and couldn't post. Please fix this.
 
I believe this goes back to the various usergroups and the different permissions each of them has. I can and will fix this shortly -- see my new thread about this.

I think I will be making it so that people can post and reply to threads. Ideally, I'd like to get it so people can actually post bids.
