So...is this going to be enforced or...?

glockguy07 · 07-20-2008

Can I just start bumping my threads every other day, (if not every 10hrs) also?

Just curious -

INGunOwners - Announcements in Forum : Firearms

"6. Don't Bump your ad more than once every week (7 Days)"

Not trying to be critical of the mods, I'm sure they're just trying to be lenient,

But to the sellers, is it that hard to get...?

When they can't put WTS, WTT, etc in their title what do you expect.

It is being enforced, usually with a PM or reminder post first, but I will warn you that Lars is threatening to actually delete threads without warning, as is stated in the rules. If you see your thread go missing one day, be sure to read through them again. They are posted as an announcement at the top of the forum in every section of the Classifieds.

If you have a specific complaint, please PM a mod (preferably W9ZEB since he's the main mod for the Classifieds), but also understand he isn't able to be on the forums 24 hours a day, and it may take a few hours for him to respond/react.

I think it's being enforced.

"6. Don't Bump your ad more than once every week (7 Days)"

Isn't answering questions in an ad considered bumping the ad to the top?

Or am I misunderstanding something?

There is a difference between "BTT/Back To the Top/Bump" and "Yes, it includes 2 mags and I would like to sell only, no trades".

Hmm, because answering a question in the thread, is in all actually bumping the thread back to the top -

I figured that's what private msgs. were for?

Why can't the OP just edit the original ad with the answer to a question?

We don't require that right now, but we may in the future. All we're asking is a little cooperation from people who want to trade in the classifieds. We're just asking that you don't "BTT" your thread more than once per week. At the moment, bumping the thread by answering questions is not a problem, and is incidentally helpful when potential buyers can see questions as well as answers.
