PART 2: I'm new an your 50-post rule sucks! Please change it for my convenience.

[Kozaturf]

Hey Kozaturf, meet me on the south side of Indy, in a dark alley, alone, and I'll give you a thousand bucks for that Keltek pistol.

Ok but I'm not telling anyone where I'm going, gonna leave my cellphone at home and please pay with a 3rd party out of state check made out to CASH

 

[KellyinAvon]

Just stopped in to make my new guy "your 50 post rule sucks" post.

Your 50 post rule sucks because reasons and my mom told me I'm special. I shouldn't have to wait or donate monies to get access to what I want. This group expects members to put in a little effort to get the benefits, are you kidding? You can trust me I'm not sketchy or shady at all (it's on the internet so it must be true) Let me in the classifieds!!!

How'd I do?

I just don't understand some people, you joined a group you follow the groups rules that's how it works. Besides, I personally wouldn't want to deal with anyone I didn't get to know/get a feel for first when it comes to guns and such.

Sarcasm, strong with this one! Come for the shiny objects, stay for the discussion!

It's strangely funny to watch adults get bent out of shape because they can't ask someone if they can purchase their thing for free.

FIFY. It could be as easy as signing up for a magazine subscription if you are willing to part with $20.

I like this guy. Hope he sticks around.

As the resident yarn expert, I have to say this is not thread but yarn and now I feel the need to make something....


It is purplish though so maybe you knew it wasn't thread...hmmmmm....

Children in adult bodies.
Ask me how I know.

Boy if this isn't the truth. I had no idea until I was granted access to the behind the scenes.

Here's an example. Let's say there are 2 ads that are marked sold, but are not closed. Member "A" already had a certain number of infractions and receives the "final notice" to follow the rules or else. The response is "I'm so sorry. I had forgot about/thought I closed it. I'll check all of my others to make sure I'm good. Thanks for letting me know and sorry to bother you. Have a great weekend."

Member "B" has zero infractions and receives a warning. The response is " Ain't you mother ******* got nothing better to do than harass the member base? **** You. I've been a member here since 1972 when Al Gore invented the internet *****. Who the **** are you to tell me what to do. Get off the ****ing keyboard in your mom's basement ****** and ******* get a life. **** this ******* place anyway. And **** you too!"

Yeah. Unfreakingbelievable.

 

[Phase2]

So you are saying that handing out infractions makes people more polite?

Well in defense of member "B" f*** is a universal adjective.

OK that pretty well covers it.
I have gotten chewed on harder for a freaking warning then handing out a lockdown. The real fun was doing the 1500 and having some nut look you up for an infraction over a year ago and be dead serious Pi$$ed off about it. KellyinAvon saw a few of those nuts. He also saw how I responded. Yes I said nuts because this is just the interwebs fellas and ladies. A few very simple rules to follow. So easy to do and the fun that can be had over the top of the basics is just missed by so many people.

My thing?
Not for sale.

How do you know?

Asking for a friend.

some of those people, I wonder how they would react if something was really important. Also there are some out there who are just flat out nuts. I always enjoyed working the 1500, but I always had my head on a swivel.

Not my "thing".
It may collect more dust than I care for. But it's the eternal optimist, hoping to be pulled off the bench at a later date.

Many do not even know what is important anymore.
