For Sale Section Rules Options

[ETNRIDER]

Please take this as being constructive and not complaining. I love this site this is by far the best site I have visited. The one concern on here is how the rules in the for sale section are.

Here are the rules….

It seems that a lot of the adds have post saying “You are selling this really high” , “So and so has this for half price”, etc. I complete see that there needs and should be post to help people adjust their prices. But at some point it would be really nice to see a rule that is something like, “If you have a problem with the sellers price please PM the seller or a moderator if you feel the seller could be fraudulent”. And say if a post does get put in saying negative things about pricing, the mods should remove them if they choose.

I am just curious if this has ever been looked into. Again please take this as being constructive. I know all the mods and members take many hours out of every day to make this site the great site that it is.

Thank you all

I completely understand that he or she could possibly be ripping people off but it could be a simple mistake. If you go back and look at the post now someone wants you to give them the other persons name so they can buy from them. Most people would probably be upset if someone cost them a sell. I would just like to see all the 6gc members check before they post pricing issues.

Hey thanks for coming and talking about it, I am really not trying to fuss and I am really glad you seem to see where I am coming from too.

no your not being destructive; in fact that's the best course of action. There is someone right now selling some things overly priced, I and several other members reported the post and a moderator made a statement. If it was dramatic scandalzation, he would have removed the listing.

But you also have to remember that if you get riped off on this site; 6gc holds no liability. So to an extent, they cannot moderate the F/S section too carefully without endorsing / denying sales; and incurring liability. Pretty much they only shut down a thread when it's an obvious scam.

Hey D Man,

Wow! Thank you for all that info, I was very curious what all the limitations are ( I could only imagine). I figured it would be up to the members to kind of watch the post. There is a ton of reasons for both sides of this but a simple PM could go along way in some cases.

Thanks
