If you are not going to allow my adds in your Classifieds section could you at least PM me and tell me why!!
Some of the gear I wanted to sell I perchanced from your online store here!!
I understand why you have to moderate classifieds but please show some common courtesy and let people know why there adds are not being allowed in that section.
Xray :mad:

Because you have less than 50 posts and we don't know who you are.
The 50 post rule is there to protect the members of this forum from scammers.

Oh look it's a sticky at the top of the classifieds:rolleyes:
The rules
Classifieds RULES. Please read before posting
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We don't have many rules but those that we do have are strictly enforced.
1) Under no circumstances may Air bottle Regulators be advertised
2) No "New" goods. Second hand only!!
3) No selling/ exchanging copied CDs/DVDs
4) Paintball items only
5) If your first or first few posts on this forum are selling something, your posts will be deleted.
you cannot sell on here untill you have been a member for period of time,this is usually 50+ posts unless you post rubbish to get to 50.Or a mod or other respected member can vouch to a mod for you.
Hmmmmmmm, so I have to be a member for more than 2 years and 10 months!
So when I have been a member for more than that I can post in the classifieds :) Get real!! :rolleyes:
Think I'll keep a screen cap of this one, its a classic!!! :D

Don't be such a sarcastic.. ill refrain myself!
how would you like it if someone scammed you, took all your money and vanished! you wouldn't be very happy, so this rule is in place to protect others from this happening to them!! it's not just you it will have happened to..
if you do wish to post, send a moderator a picture of the gear you plan to sell, and included in the picture have a piece of paper with your full name and address on it, then im sure you'll be allowed to sell!
evidently, if you know somebody who is known on this forum ask them to vouch for you, but only if they're 100% positive your ok to deal with, but you'll still need the name and address in your pictures!
im sure you can see why this rule is implace and that it should be in place, we like to keep paintball a safe and friendly community, scammers are not welcome, and this is a fantastic way to combat the problem!
if you carry on with sarcasm towards Admin's and Moderators, im pretty certain we won't be hearing from you again! but if you don't wish to take an extra minute to prove yourself legit then take your business elsewhere, but you'll get the same response from any forum, people will not deal with you unless you are proven legit!
with an attitude like that, people are not going to want to deal with you, and people will not have the time for you, all it takes is for you to treat people in a proper mannor and prove yourself legit!
The moderators are in place to keep this place safe from scammers and unacceptable posts.. thier decision is the correct one, so show them some respect!
..hey, we're all entitled to a little rant once in our lives:p im clearly bored:p !!!
just to prove a point.. after posting i realised my post count was only 48, but i have traded on here many times before.
this is because people know who i am, i have met with a number of people from this forum, people will vouch for me, and im known and respected by many around here and i get along with everyone!
now im only 16, but because i show people respect, and treat them in a mature manner, im shown a great deal of respect back and not treated like some half brained yob basically who's out to scam, which you find often with a few kids.. not nessacerily on this forum but on others!
just shows.. sarcasm won't get you anywhere.. it doesn't take much for people to realise that your ok!
:cool:

Just to set the record straight when I submitted my add I added links to photo’s, links back to my own site and openly introduced myself. If who ever moderates the classifieds section had read all of my post they would have seen and realized who I am!!
I put a lot of time and effort into wording my post and producing a gallery with the kit I have for sale.
See here;
I don’t need to use your site to sell my kit, I just thought it would be nice to give you guys the chance to purchase some gear that is in A1 condition from someone who is well known throughout the UK paintball scene!
Never mind, If you do want me to post the details of the gear above then I will.
If not I'll just sell it on my own site.
No hard feelings now!

Well I am one of the moderators who moderates the for sale section but I havn't realised as of yet who you are.
Because of this I have removed your link as you have not as yet reached 50 posts.
from someone who is well known throughout the UK
Go on then, give us a clue, if I know you I will approve your post.

too late i deleted it ..
i've no idea who he is and there was NO links on the post so how could i find out more about him??????
ko his name is Lee Barrell or Leeb is his other forum names that will be seen around.
He is 1 of the owners of www.walkonzone.com and has taken the opportunity to offer this kit that is in A1 condition as stated to the members of this forum. But hey if he cant post it then i guess it will be sold elsewhere

im not denying the rules after all they have been designed by the mod's, admin's for the site and that is their initiative. I was just providing details on Xrayhead to the 2 posts above about the character of Lee.

thanks for the info we'll take it on board.
if he wants to re-post with more details of himself we'll look at it.
we "see" alot of people on this forum but in realaty "know" very few unless they become valued members then you get a "feel" for the person...
