I am editing this post to comply with my own cardinal rule of (if it doesn’t concern me, keep my blundering mouth shut)

So, I still have one question, why did I make a post at all? 🥴. I need an attitude adjustment this morning. 😬

I wish for everyone to have a safe, peaceful, healthy and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Good judgment comes from experience, and most of that comes from bad judgement! 🥴

Where are the moderators that we who choose not to participate in the all too frequent banters going on should have to endure it through the Christmas holidays of all times?

I am with you , I have never witnessed anything like this . Folks having others ruin their classifieds with the moderators sitting back watching and doing nothing is strange . It must be they get paid per click, because negative sure sells here.

It's sure nice not to be censored, some folks just have no respect or manners. Just skip on by if you don't like the content of the post.

I brought this up on another board that there doesn’t need to be any comments made in For Sale ads except to ask questions about the item or commit to buy it. This crap has gotten ridiculous on every board I’m on. Even administrators are making stupid comments in classified ads on some boards.

I like this site the way it is.
I might add most of the original members have helped this board to shape the way it is.


I've been so overwhelmed with fake news that I'm now nuts. Let's go Brandon

Yup. Agree 100%. People making fake "I already bought this and he scammed me" posts to ruin an ad thread is pretty ridiculous. What kind of troll would blatantly lie and then disappear in an attempt to torpedo a thread?

Yep.

The classifieds is the only place in which I employ the "Ignore" feature. I use it so I don't have to remember whom I've chosen not to buy from/sell to. I can't even remember who's on my list until the "You're ignoring this user" pops up, at which point I spend 0 time trying to figure out why, I just trust my prior judgement and move on.

This is all supposed to be a hobby, as such, it should be fun. As the rules stand, I'm able to self-censor out people who've appeared to be un-fun to deal with and the judgement is mine, and mine alone. I'd prefer things not change a bit.

Censorship hides important information... you want to know who craps on people's posts. Sure, it can be a drag, but the alternative is that you don't know.
