Why can't I reply in Classifieds??

[Paul]

Hello all..

A while ago it was brought up about not having reposnses allowed in the Classified section of GTA Motorcycle because of people commenting on price...using the forum to trash others etc. A few ideas were thrown around and we had a compromise of adding some strict rules about posting in that section.

There are various links throughout that section outlining the rules, yet it is a constant fight. We issue infractions and we get nasty PM's in return. We don't need the abuse and refuse to take it. The rules are clear and simple, however some feel they desereve to have their say about another persons product and/or asking price.

We are now going to not allow any responses in the Classified sections. The original poster will be able to respond to their own post in order to bump (not more than once a week). The original poster will also be able to edit, and delete their own thread once it has been sold.

If you are interested in something for sale, use the PM function or contact the seller however they request on their ad.

Unfortunately it only takes a few to ruin good things for everyone.

Thanks to everyone for helping keep GTAM clean and fun!!

Paul

I don't like this rule... I think if you're gonna ban people from comenting on classified items, then you should have rules for people posting in the section


i mean, why should i have to send a PM to ask how many kilometers are on their bike. Also, if I know someone is a scam artist, why should I not warn others not to waste their time?

As they should.
What better way to police the classifieds than giving all the members access?
Watch the scamming increase.
Nice work, admins.

What...I can't be a regular user too??....WTF???

Report the post...just like you SHOULD and would anyone else....

All the tools are on this forum to do everything everyone wants...but no one will use them.

I'm tired of the WHINING... I've accepted that there is no way to keep all of you happy....so suck it up buttercup!!

Maybe the bump rules should be changed as well...since reponses won't be bumping everything so often, it might be a good idea to allow bumps every three days instead.

Try coming up with ideas...instead of whining about change.

[RichmondHiller]

I have few ideas!

1. Since this forum is here to assist and promote motorcycling its in communitys interests to increase amount of riders. Not to help existing riders make a buck. Therefore comments on pricing should be allowed - this would help the seller to get an idea of what buyers are expecting, and help buyer to drop the price - its still ultimately up to the seller to agree on the offer price - so no harm can be done.

2. Parts section is too random - how about splitting it into subsection by main manufacturers (Honda, Suzi, Kawi, Yami) and a section "Other". This will help a person to locate particular parts instead of browsing through pages of useless(to u) content.

Hehe - u've asked for it!

[BecMonChu]

Implement something similar to the effect of "member feedback"

This new rule thing is just a hinder to people looking to buy, i used other peoples psots and questions to help aid me in wether ornot to buy it, now the ad owner is gonna get barraged by the same questions ove rand over, and a few times someone asked a question that i didnt think of and it also helped in my decision to purchase or not.

highly disagree with this new format

Don't blame me because your too lazy to do your homework.

Don't blame me because your too lazy to do your homework.

Obviously the guy should have researched his deal a little more but not being able to use the people on this site as a resource is like not being able to use the internet for your research paper, yes you can do it either way but its much more handy and easier to use the GTAM community.

Is there anyway the poster can enable messages to his thread? They would then waive any recourse in the event someone else posts something they don't like.

so why cant i responD?? i need an upper fairing honda 600rr 03. red!

[BradPitt]

So I can't respond now too! WOw this is a sad day for this site - half the fun was giving props, or dropping drops on the good and the bad classifieds ads.

Can a mod please tell me why my priveleges were revoked?
