Short term ban for not putting SOLD

Just a grumble from a cranky old bastard.

Bloody sick of all the SOLD items still sitting in the classifieds because lazy pricks cannot read/abide by simple rules.

For farks sake - you are getting a bloody good free service here. Have the courtesy of not being such a lazy slob.

rant over and good night.

I think a short term ban is pretty harsh...
and I prefer to see the name calling / humiliation to the OP when the template police (regular uses) charge through.

there should however be a mod (*puts hands up*) that patrols the classified and clears ALL sold items once every 3 months~ and spends a few hours doing so.

Alternatively... just report the post/thread and it usually disappears pretty quickly

Moorey has got to be the best angler on this forum. He goes fishing and you bite hook line and sinker. Thanks for the laughs.

As for not putting SOLD in the title, I reckon it should result in withdrawal of trading privileges.

The whole sold thing in the title, you have to dig a bit to change it.

Could you change it so instead of needing "Sold" in the title, you need to edit the first post and put !sold! or something similar in the text body which could send it to the sold forum?

first world problems... couldn't spend my disposable income on a toy because someone beat me to it.



as mentioned it can be a difficult process for those not so computer (or phone) literate as the rest of us. so long as it mentions somewhere that it's gone, that'll do pig... that'll do.

It's not rocket surgery editing it. I'm more concerned about pretenders to mod-dom usually listing things as 'make an offer'. It's not eBay, people. :tsk:

It shits me too and I do give the turds a week off if they don't update it accordingly. Report the post with a message about not saying sold in the title and I'll cut them away.

How did I miss this soap opera thread? I need to review my subscriptions.

Is it possible to have a script that auto deletes for sale threads after a certain time? Such as 4 weeks from the last post in the thread.

This would be useful, keep having stuff bumped up from 6 months ago etc.
