Not sure why this is a limitation (or correct me if it's something else) but I guess it could be beneficial for everyone if anyone can offer free services/methods and not just upgraded members. I do not see the value of paying 30 bucks so I can post something to the community to use for free.

Because idiots and shit were posting "Free scams" and shit like that and just causing issues over the years, so Omni made the change to cut back on these sort of things

Regular members are generally low quality and thats why there’s such restrictions in place.

Non-upgraded members have been given limitations throughout the years because some users like to evade bans and come back on new accounts attempting to scam members. Those limitations combat that and help keep our members safe. I will say that the upgrades are worth the small price.

Tell you what, I'll grant you 2500 Bytes so you can do the 60 day upgrade, on me. But if your "free service" ends up being some bullshit, I will be closing your account.
