jon_8_us, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

This is the message i get

Hello Jon,

Sorry for the delayed response. I missed your earlier question. As per the membership subscription page, the ability to post in the 'Ask About Bat Shipping Records' forum is currently reserved for paid members. This is based on the fact that, given Vince Malta has been kind enough to let us post the bat player charts on our site for book purchasers, we didn't want to do anything that would potentially prevent sales of his book. That is, while we try to give as much information as possible on this site for free, we felt an obligation to Vince not to do anything that would potentially cannibalize sales of his book. While we can re-evaluate this once the book has been out for a while, we think it is the responsible thing to do right now.

Please feel free to let me know if that answers your question as well as if you have any others.

Sincerely,
Chris

No Problem Jon. Again, I'm sorry for the delay in getting you a response. The delay was my fault, not the other administrators.

Can anyone tell me how to post in the Bat Shipping Records forum? I need some help with determining Octavio Dotel 1997, 1998, and 1999 LS bat shipping records. However, I am not allowed to post in that section of Game Used Universe. Can someone help me out?

You have to be a "Paying" member to have access to that. It is one of the benefits of that level of membership.

Re: Why can't I post in "Ask About Bat Shipping Records"?

I think when you pay for your account on here, they let you ask about shipping records in that particular section. I believe that expires after a year. It should also do it when you look up the HOF charts here on the forum. That is why you have that message come up. It does it to me as well.

Re: Why can't I post in "Ask About Bat Shipping Records"?

I see.

I've noticed that folks also post in THIS section, asking Brian about bat records. Is that a no-no?

Re: Why can't I post in "Ask About Bat Shipping Records"?

The "Ask About Bat Shipping Records" was intended to be reserved for members who, at minimum, purchased the Vince Malta book. As a distributor of Vince's book, this was done to be fair to him. That is, if we allowed everyone to ask about the shipping records, it would likely cannibalize book sales which wouldn't be very fair to the book's author.
