Miss Bugs 'Dont F**K with the Duck Hirst' For Sale, by Zippy on Feb 26, 2016 10:52:45 GMT 1, Excellent post - perhaps post of the week?
Mods: Is this not a perfect example of why the 50 posts rule should be in place?

Get the 50post rule in place, every single day we have to endure these "one posters" - if you dont make an active contribution to the forum people should not be allowed to use the for sale section! Absolutely agree. You'll probably still get the usual 50 post rack up with 'GLWTS', 'Great piece', 'Thats a bargain'......dotted all over the forum but what can you do! |

That's easily solved. Put the 50 post rule back and don't allow those first 50 posts to be any shorter than (say) 7 words each.
Determined sellers will get round any system, but the more laboriuos it is will cut down the casual chancers.

I'm not sure that anything has been deleted.
I thought the OP post was blank and the only info was the thread tittle.

Miss Bugs 'Dont F**K with the Duck Hirst' For Sale, by duggyfresh on Feb 26, 2016 13:29:57 GMT 1, Why cant we have a system where you can only post in the for sale section when approved by a mod? For example, when you have reached 50 posts you have to apply for authorisation to post in the for sale section, if a mod feels you contibution is not of value you will be refused access, simple!! And this will stand until your contribtion is of use to this community. Im a member of a VW forum and it kind of has the same type of system suggested, even for access to other parts of the board.

You are aware that we do not get paid for this, right?

Joking aside, I think that the problem was that policing the rule was taking up too much of the FG's time. Is that right Otto? If so, I can completely understand why the rule was scrapped, as FG's have to have the time to enjoy being members on here, as well as being FG's.
I do not know what the answer is. My default position tends to be that the fewer rules the better, and let the forum police itself. If we don't buy from people who take the piss, and piss taking posts get derided in the way that zippy did with this one, then perhaps sellers will think about engaging a little more before selling, and posting proper for sale threads. But it is up to us, not FG's to self police. And not buy!

The forum should be self policing.
We are a team here, FG and members.
We can't keep on top of everything, and we really appreciate the policing you members do as well!
You are correct, keeping up with the 50post rule took much time and energy from us guardians.
New members were trying their best to 'get around' the rule. Posting on the price check threads...etc.
This forum is Silkys baby. He decided that the forum is self policing.
(Which the past week has shown this to be correct with members calling out many for sale threads.) BTW-thanks for that, guys!
The 50 post rule IS history.
It seems that many for sale threads lately are giving less and less info of what they are selling.
The rules ask that members should post as much info as possible.
Which in return, should sell said item quicker!

Any post that comes from a member with less than 50 posts gets deleted, as does any FS thread that does not include AT LEAST the minimum info considered acceptable - simples
