    So I have to be active for 30 days in order to place a FT:ISO thread? What happens if I have beer I want to trade now? Do I have to camp on it for 30 days? Thanks all.

    Take this time to reach out and meet people locally. See if you can join a tasting group etc.

    Or, see if someone is ISO that beer already, and respond to their FT's if you like what they're offering.

    Are you inquiring for a friend or something?

    You've been on the site for almost two years now....

    Send beer to me or Good_Trader. If we like it, we will send something back.

    I am guessing if you have been on here for two years, and are not sure if that is more than 30 days, you probably aren't going to have good luck in trading. Folks might wonder on which Monday in which year you plan to ship.
    Just sayin'

    He can send it to me, and I probably won't send anything back regardless.

    That's what I thought, but apparently you have to be active in the 30 days prior to posting, not just active for 30 days... Rules are pretty ambiguous about that.

    No, for me. Almost two years, yeah, with the required postings, so not sure why Todd wouldn't let me post in ISO:FT...
