A small update to the rules for the classifieds.

[Bigtanker]

After some discussion, the staff has come to the conclusion that rule #7 in the classifieds needed a bit of a rewrite for several reasons.


So please read and follow it. I'll post the rewrite here and it will be updated in the official rules soon. So here it is......

#7. There are to be no comments by anyone other than the member who posted the ad. The ad can be bumped to the top ONCE every 24 hours from the last post by the posting member. ALL OFFERS, COMMENTS, QUESTIONS, ETC ARE TO BE SENT VIA THE "START CONVERSATION" SELECTION IN THE MEMBERS PROFILE. No more "pm sent, I'll take it, is this still available," etc. The only exception is if you start a conversation and you get a "Inbox is full" reply. We request you first report the ad to the staff using the report tab at the bottom of the post. We will try and contact the member to help them. A post in the ad saying the inbox is full will be allowed.

We will be giving a grace period for a little while.

How does this impact F15 sales?

F15's are a rare enough unicorn that common sense grace will be allowed. Unless posted anyone whose tag starts with the letter 'F'

I would add that if you are posting an ad check your inbox 1st and make some room.

Why not allow “I’ll take it”?

I have a hard time understanding the objection to that.

Becoming a site supporter (if you're not already) will open alot more room in your inbox.
Being a dick nobody wants to PM helps too.....................just sayin'

I think it is because posting that has no meaning in the rules of the INGO unlike some other forums. On the INGO, the seller is allowed to pick and choose who he wants to sell to. I know some boards will permanently ban you if you don't sell to the first person to agree to buy it.

I have a hard time understanding the need to post it in the thread. Why not just PM the "I'll take it"?

Yeah. If you have email notifications on you'll know when you have a new message. I'm not one to check my ad every day or several times a day

I have sold two lesser models

I have had people on other selling formats post that and then never respond to my messages to arrange the sale. Other potential buyers assume it is sold and pass by the ad.

I’m not a classifieds user, but, my guess is because it bumps the thread, then just because you say you’ll take it doesn’t mean he’ll sell it to you. If you say you’ll take it, other people considering the ad will assume it’s been sold to you, and it’ll cost the poster from receiving anymore offers.
