    We've seen a growing trend of threadcrapping, not only from new members but also from members that have been here a while.and it needs to stop now. Effective immediately, anyone posting a comment determined to be in violation of the threadcrapping rule will receive a vacation.

    The FS/T rules are a sticky. There is no excuse for not following the rules required to post in this forum.


    This is rule 18 as it pertains to this subject


    This has been the norm for many years and it will now be your only warning.

    You thread crap you go on vacation with NO warning. The criteria we are following is posted below.

    If you have nothing good to say DO NOT POST

    If you do not like the price [no matter how outrageous you think it is] DO NOT POST

    All we want to see in a thread is:

    I will buy it, Paypal sent [or any variation thereof]

    Any technical questions

    Bump, Good trader [or any variation thereof]

    Or,
    Just asking for pics, refs or more info

    Anything else is crap and will get you a vacation WITHOUT warning. If you reregister we will catch you and you will be Perma-Banned

    The thread crapping WILL stop



    If you want to discuss the price of an item; you may only do so by PM'ing the seller.

    Also, please remember that bumps must be a minimum of 6 hours apart. If you want to update the status of an item, edit your original post, or wait until 6 hours from your last post if you want to put it into a reply. You may respond to questions from other members as long as all other rules are followed.

    If you see threadcrapping, please do not respond to it, just use the report bad post button[​IMG], and a moderator will review the post

    Thank You

    The number of reported posts concerning threadcrapping has increased a good bit, meaning that there are those who fail at abiding by our posted rules and Stickied special warnings. The Admins will begin enforcing the banning option starting at the first instance. First offense is a one day ban. Second offense will result in a week long ban. Third occurrance will get you a month off. If by that time you haven't learned, the fourth rule infraction will be your last on the forum. This is the only warning and will not be negotiable. You have been warned and the decision and responsibility is yours.
