You mean like laughing at versus laughing with?

I speak in jest... I've expelled coffee via my nose too often... I should know better than drinking while reading... some legit witty folks on the boards.

What does this mean?

I was making fun of myself. He used big words and I was joking as if I had to look them up online to know the meaning.

i like coffee.

What does this mean?

Looks like someone is working on their fify in the wrong place, I see a snip, snip coming.

Have to add vasectomy to my list of meltdown methods.

On the old site you could not post a quote without adding content.

Being able to post just a quote is a great way to get your fiddy.

 

[IndyBeerman]

WOW, just

Neither are quality post, are meager one liners and on top of that the post I'm replying to is merely a quote of two posts.

So that's 3 meager posts of no quality, me thinks you didn't read the FAQ, must be a really nice bright shiny you're looking at.

I had to PM a guy who joined back in dec. His first post was "is this still available?" on a classified item.

I PM'd him a link to the readme file he should have seen back in December. SMH

 

[2A_Tom]

Well his posts here are gone.

 

[IndyBeerman]

Well his posts here are gone.

Snip, snip, snip.

They never read the FAQ, and they never learn.

I didnt mind until my account was deleted out of know where, and I have to start all over again. No warning or anything. Logged in weekly even.

Well. . . . . the rules are pretty clear, perhaps one of the lawyer types could read them to you or maybe one of the cop types. Kinda like a Miranda before being signed off on or something?

Why should we warn you about something that you should make yourself aware of.
My time here is free. As is all the rest of us. You are asked to read the rules (you should do that anyway) when you join.

Man this gets so old.

This is the 1st paragraph in the rules and it states very clearly what we expect and what it will be and why.

For your reading pleasure .....
In order to participate in the classifieds section, you must have a quality post count of 50 or more

You can also bypass the 50 posts by BECOMING A SITE SUPPORTER HERE: https://www.indianagunowners.com/account/upgrades

This policy is in place to help weed out scammers/spammers and gives our members a chance to get a feel for you as a board member. Do not attempt to gain access to the classifieds by posting a bunch of "one-liners". That will not work. Thank you and enjoy the classifieds!

Remember the classifieds are a PERK for CONTRIBUTING MEMBERS. This is either by posting on a somewhat regular basis* outside of the classifieds or by becoming a Site Supporter. We are no longer letting members get their minimum post requirement and then spend the rest of their time selling in the classifieds without supporting the site that allows them to do so.

Account deleted totally, or your (non-quality) posts deleted? I dont see why the former would happen, but the latter most definitely. If you did something seriously wrong, your account wouldnt be deleted but locked so you couldnt post anymore. If they deleted accounts of misbehaving users, the user could easily come back and recreate the account, negating the ban by deletion. I cant think of a good reason why an admin would totally delete an account.

Totally deleted, never once have I caused a problem on here. Been a member since 2011ish.

Odd. Have you been on since the site changed software? Maybe the account didnt get migrated somehow? I'm not an admin, but I see no logical reason why they would have deleted an account totally. That's not SOP for any issues I'm aware of. I think the only time it would happen is if you request your account to be deleted, but I'm not even sure they honor that. I think they would simply shooter the account so you couldnt log in.

I was wondering the same thing. Maybe it was a glitch of the software change.

If you would go thru contact us Tex will reset your password and you will be back in your old account. I went thru the same thing when the new change took place.

If all you did was log in and just post in the classifieds, then it looks like they might have had reason to delete the account, according to their rules.
