W/FS Rules

If you weren't so dense there was a constructive suggestion but you missed it. Surprize..
Don't make a mountain out of molehill.
I am saying that there isn't a problem. And while Kevin above me has a suggestion about segmenting things into dollar amounts it will be tougher for a buyer like me to browse. Nothing wrong IMO, with Kevin's suggestion, I just think it will make browsing tougher.
Calling me troll, you are just a little charmer aren't you?
I bet you're single....just saying.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out. From a lot of your posts all it seems you do is whine and complain about that section. You even break the rules posting your rants in some of those threads. There is a report button, so use it. If you don't like the way that section is ran, then leave. You aren't being forced to sell there and you don't have to pay a fee to use it. Some people I swear just love to find something to complain about.
That's me a forum abuser......the shame of it all....
Lighten up Dave its just a pool forum. Don't get your panties in a bunch too.

He 'shill' bumps. Quite frequently. Beyond the initial listing, as per the rules, no other comments are allowed. His 'nice cue' comments could be just as easily made via PM...except that he KNOWS he's 'shill' bumping, and doesn't care, because he thinks he's special.
Either the rules apply to all...or remove the rules altogether, and let's get back the to the 'wild, wild west' days of AZB...where the early bird got the schwag, and the playing field was level.

Why don't you just stay away from my threads? All you ever do is troll-post them anyways.
Your credibility with me is SHOT. You did that when you worked overtime to go after a cue maker, because you didn't get a cue...and then did NOTHING to back your a$$ up! To make matters worse, you post up his personal info, and and basically call him gutter trash, because why?....he doesn't live as nicely as you feel he should?!!!
Quit working overtime to demean others, you sanctimonious SOB.

^^^ding ding ding, we have a winner! It's absolute and utter bullsh*t when other people break the rules, but when I do it..... it's ok I guess
I sure hope when I get older I don't become that bitter person nit picking on things like this...I may have to have someone remove my posting ability lol.

Where's that " Beyond the initial listing, as per the rules, no other comments are allowed" rule at?
As far as you reading what's on his mind, or what his intent is, I'll leave that to you.
Thanks
Kevin
As an example, right now there's a guy mistakenly offering a Schon case for sale as a Fellini or Gore. There are learned members posting in the open to point out his error. This could be done via PM, but that would only warn the seller, not potential buyers.
Is this breaking the supposed "Beyond the initial listing, as per the rules, no other comments are allowed" rule?
Thanks
Kevin

What rule? I just posted the rule earlier in this thread.
"11) Over-active bumping is not allowed. If most of the replies to your post are bumps that is overactive bumping. Anything more than a single bump in any 48-hour period is over-bumping."
That's me a forum abuser......the shame of it all....

Sit down boy, the adults are arguing about stupid things! :grin-square:
Seriously, I usually don't care, but in that particular thread there are at least 10 posts from different users bumping with the same crap.
Yes, it is breaking the rules. That's being nitty, though.
You asking that question, that's also being nitty.

And that's being kind...I have to go to work now...but will post more later.
We have all done it... even you Lisa... so what's the point of dragging through the mud. It's not going to stop...
I think you are confused or interpreting that rule wrong. I see nothing in that rule that says Ken can't comment in someone else's For Sale thread once.
Kevin
Fine. You win. There is no definition in the rules of overbumping. Go on your merry way.
"You can't fix stupid".
I'm done.
That is a great point Kevin... that rule is ambiguous and can easy be interpreted in many different ways.
Absolutely and it has been interpreted in two different ways by two different mods.
Some folks interpret an ambiguous rule "their way" and call everyone stupid for not seeing it their way.
When Jerry first handed down the rules, there was much discussion about comments being bumps and the last I remember he was going to take it under advisement. Clearly some folks see it as set in stone (either way they choose), but pointing to a rule that simply does not exist is a bit pointless.
Please, some guy posts a Balabushka and another posts "I owned that cue in 1988 and sold it to ABC". That's not against the rules, that's provenance, central to the value of any collectible. Posting that info in a PM to the SELLER, does nothing for potential BUYERS. Just like the guys properly IDing that case as a Schon right now are not being nitty, not breaking rules, they are performing a community service.
More common sense. less rules please.

Oppsie Dave, it looks to me like you have a reading problem.
The key there is "YOUR POST", meaning the OP. Not someone who has commented to the thread.
Nothing nitty about it.
Ken
Agreed, and it can give some good information. I missed on the Fellini to Schon case. Its good when someone can correct.
