Question about renting points

[Lizziejane]

As a potential renter, I've read the "sticky" in the rent/trade board on how to protect myself when working with a DVC owner. One of the suggestions is to review the prior posts of the person offering to rent me their points. However, when I try this, the search comes up empty. Every single time. Am I doing something wrong?

How are you trying to search? If you just use the link "search" it probably won't work (never does for me)

All you need to do is click on their name (right above the avatar). You'll see several choices including "find all posts by lizziejane", click on that and give it a minute. I got 27 posts that you have made instantly

Thanks for the speedy reply!

That's what I've been doing too - however, when I do this for someone I'm considering renting from, I get nothing, even though their post count shows there should be some.

Can you think of a reason why it would come up blank?

I just tried a few on the R/T board and my only thought is that it depends on how many posts they have. The only ones that came up, were people with over 100 posts. I have no idea if that's right or why it would be, but that's what I saw.

yeah, that's pretty much what I concluded too. Thanks!
