Beware of your titles though. The mods will delete your message if the title is incorrectly formated. The purpose of the title is to make sure sure you're could be interested in an item before you click on it.
to be perfectly honest, this is the biggest PITA for sellers when listing items ( following that format or the risk of it being taken down ( just not worth the hassle ) and it probably just someone chip on their shoulder personal agenda BS pet peeve that got pushed thru when someone became a Mod :roll: ...the old way was fine, no one was really upset clicking on something that didn't have a complete plethora or info in the subject line....My guess why the B/S/T doesn't have a lot in in these days , but JMHO... :mrgreen:

Mods have no chips anywhere. Rules were requested by the members. A sample of the title is provided. A simple cut and paste. It doesn’t take time at all. I was receiving daily messages before the rules. Also, I read the mod logs on a regular basis and no mod is abusing his duties. The ones removed deserved to be removed.

I feel they were alot better before the new rules. I don't use them anymore. Too much of a pain in the ass to structure the ad to where it won't get deleted. Last time I did I apparently broke some sacred rule about title structure, logged on to a message saying to fix it or it'll be deleted, only to see it had been deleted anyway :roll:

I've had pretty good luck using it. I don't much care for the 'new' format either but I deal with it. It's certainly not as bad as Sturmgewehr when Buddy would throw a fit at the slightest fopaux. :lol:

Everyone here that I've dealt with has been good people - y'all know who you are. :D

I only dealt with long time members on here and I've never had a bad interaction.

Aside from selling to personal friends or family, this would be the only other place I would post anything.
