A small update to the rules for the classifieds.

[Ziggidy]

If you are not allowed to use the classifieds due to low post counts, does the new rule apply to you?

Why would it?

I do believe sub 50 posters can't comment in the classifieds. That forum is basically locked to them. The can look but that's it.

Did anyone else the ammo thread last week in which the BUYER bumped the ad to mark it sold?

This happens a lot, and drives me crazy. I report it when I see it.

I have a hard time understanding the need to post it in the thread. Why not just PM the "I'll take it"?

When you call dibbs on the F15 you need to signal it for all the competition to know to lay off.

I don't know if I've ever seen it, but that's just crazy. WTF would a buyer post in the seller's ad that the seller's merchandise is sold? I'd probably report it too.

Well that seals it. No point in posting anything else in this thread.

He called dibs. That’s it.

If we are going to talk about breakfast food, biscuits and gravy, side of bacon.

That is all.

After some discussion, the staff has come to the conclusion that rule #7 in the classifieds needed a bit of a rewrite for several reasons.


So please read and follow it. I'll post the rewrite here and it will be updated in the official rules soon. So here it is......



We will be giving a grace period for a little while.

TTT

Oh, but I doubt that makes us safe from pineapple. I'm sure there's some INGO miscreant who ruins good gravy with pineapple.

Edit: oops—eight hours too early… sorry, mod’s!

Wait a minute. This kinda smells like a cop turning on his siren just to avoid having to stop for a red light.

 

[bwframe]

I'll take it...

 

[jamil]

I'll take it...

But you didn't call dibs first. Someone else did.

I don't like red lights.

I think rule number 3 needs to be updated/removed about the buyer asking a question since now they need to use the pm system.

3. After your ad has been up for 24 hours you may 'bump' it once in a 24-hour period. This means that no less than 24 hours after the last post in the thread, you may add a new post ("bumping") to allow your ad to come back to the top to be noticed. DO NOT try to get around this by posting "replied to all PMs" or something similar. If a potential buyer asks a question, you may ONLY answer it in your original post or as your 24-hour bump. Remember you may only bump it 24 hours after the last post. If your item is SPF(sold pending funds) you must edit your first/original post to state that but do NOT bump your ad.

Thanks. I'll make that change.
