  • New Sale Thread Rules

    There has recently been an aggravating amount of hostility aimed towards those who are offering trades for items that are listed as "For Sale". It not only takes attention away from the items listed, but it starts a trend of "hijacking" with comments that are irrelevant to the sale thread. The same people keep offering things that people aren't interested in as an offer to exchange whatever they have for the listed items. Im not a moderator, but I think it would be in the best interest of the thread, to keep hostility limited, to require those individuals offering trades in For Sale threads to offer it through a PM, unless the OP states they are interested in trades other than cash. Just my $.02.

        its silly that there would have to be a rule on this since we are all supposed to be mature. the ones i have seen recently are really lopsided trades though and seem to be coming from new members who dont participate in the forums much other than this activity.

          At times like these it makes a lot of sense for those other forums to have post count requirements to post in the B/S/T

            It's funny to me that I got the run around from this particular person on a trade about a month ago. A lot of my time and effort was hijacked.

              If you have an issue with someone, discreetly report your complaint to a Mod. Let a Mod handle it if there is a need. I understand where yall are coming from but where do you draw the line?

              I can see this thread going no where good.

              Just my .02 cents.

                This thread is in the lounge and no specific person has been pointed out so that would not warrant any personal attacks.
