for sale post removed,why?

[Tommo21]

On a personal note I would ask you if you would send money to someone nobody knows or has had any comms with?

Not sure I agree on the money. The majority of us on here are very very trusting. I bought something off Crawford a couple of months ago. I wasn't sure about the shaft so he sent me the club to try before I buy. I had the club for about 5 days before I decided I wanted it and sent the money. I think we are trusting and hope the scally's stay away.

Yes, I think your right but we need to keep it tight in order to continue that way.

JOUK, your are bloody clueless regarding what we can and cannot do. We cannot vet posts r censor them, we react to them.

It's fairly common to set up a forum script so a new users first few posts are authorised by a moderator prior to appearing live on the board, I have one set up that way. Funnily enough it stops people joining and spamming with their first few posts. Not sure who is the "bloody clueless" one now.

The seller seems like a smashing fella and he was happy enough with my explanation but you seem to have a problem with me.

Get off your ego.... you're nothing to me.

I am not on my ego. I decided to pull a post and discussed it with the poster but you jump in thinking your the A-team acting for someone has been unfairly treated even though they never asked for handers.


Jog on.

this is crazy,i accepted the removal of the post,all i was after was an explanation which i got. like he said ive been a member for about a fortnight now and nobody knows me from adam,fair play to you all for your opinions but seriously i'm glad that the moderators are so keen on keeping the site clean, a private message would have been nice to give the reason for the removal without me putting up this post which has obviously caused a stir. draw a line under the issue and get back to the main reason we're on here GOLF!

GOLF.......what the feck is that. Well said that newbie man, Next subject.

The rules being....

1. Forum etiquette dictates that you introduce yourself....

I never introduced myself - am I banned from selling??

 

[Parmo]

Jesus H. Christ, leave the Mods alone ffs. Mono was robbed by someone selling a putter they got free from GM, its bad enough they charged him top wack for something everyone knows they got free but to cheat a kid out of his pocket money is the lowest forms of life.

A couple of years ago I was a member of an unmodded forum, which got along fine, until it got too big, and the hassle started.

I was anti the introduction of mods, but after a while I had to come round to their way of reacting - the more popular a forum becomes, the more likely you are to need mods.

I think this forum has 'suffered' the same increase in popularity.

I've had a couple of queries with the mods here, but all in all, I think they do a grand job. Noone is perfect, but these guys are as good as you're ever going to get.

I know for sure that I couldn't / wouldn't do it.

LeeWest, after all the handbags have finished flying, I'm dying to know what you were trying to sell.

Oi!!!!

 

[RichardSanderson]

You should have seen the hassle I got when I tried to sell my x-14's! This place is ridiculous if you're trying to sell.

And IF you were selling those, what sort of money would you be wanting for them if they were still for sale?

 

[leewestrudd1]

i'll send you a pm

 

[Macster]

I was against the introduction of Mods for exactly this kind of reason - heavy handed action imo.

 

[Smiffy]

And IF you were selling those, what sort of money would you be wanting for them if they were still for sale?

And if they WERE for sale, and you ended up buying them, would you use them PROPERLY?
If they were for sale that is

I have just noticed a load of extra posts on the thread having been busy working away near brim this past few days.
A couple of things..
1. computers do not have common sense and forums need moderators, period.
2. If lee wanted an angry mob to throw in their tuppence I am sure he would have asked.
This subject just keeps rearing it's ugly head, strangely as heavy handed as we are (all relative I suppose), we still have the best membership among all UK golf forums.
