why is it that when I post stuff for sale in marketplace I see people posting silly comments on the item for sale? if you are not interested in the item DON'T POST! if you are adding info on the item, thats kool. I don't crash your threads, so please don't crash mine! I would hope the moderators would be on top of this kinda stuff.

I just want everyone to know I am in no way being a total dickhead, I just don't see it fair for people to crash other peoples forsale threads!

Mark,

i think so too, but it seems like you have flooded the marketplace with stuff you can get off ebay or any auto store, i know that your just trying to make $ but, I think that is where the jeers come from.

I think people are forgeting one of the Marketplace rules.


6. Do not post in marketplace threads unless you have something important to add, or unless you are answering a question for someone, or are genuinely interested in buying/selling a product.

If you are not interesting in purchasing or asking a question, DON'T POST. No one cares about what you think of the product.

uhhh...doesn't the rule say that you can post if you have something important to add? I think Ford's clarification of the product was quite important.

I don't think that post was a direct result of this flame. There are argueable posts, but I think it was Thread (http://www.elantraxd.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7735) that spawned Mark to say something.

^^^ WTF?

Here is the thing: I had posted that I was interested at first but my friend next to me said he can get them for cheaper, hence why I wrote ''forget it'', as in ''disregard this post'', what's wrong with that? I just didn't want to make the guy's hope go up for nothing. HIS following post caused Gun5 to write that post, so technically it's not my fault.

I guess next time i'll write something like ALRIGHT MAN ILL BUY 6,708,080 OF EM TOMORROW, and then the next day say it's a joke.

TIP: next time, look at the ''edited by...'' notice and ask yourself a few questions.

I see what you meant Kewlkat, but "forget it" can be interpreted different ways.... the first time I read the post, I took it as a negative post..... it would be better to say something like "posted, but changed my mind" or something like that... just to avoid confusion....

The main posts that were in question have since been deleted...
