So I had an add in the car parts section "closed" because I had "bumped" the add a couple of times befor the majical 3 day grace period, so here's the problem I have... its not ok for me to "BUMP" my add too soon however, it is ok for some of these other guys to post several different adds daily, WTF and I have also seen other posts or threads containing pictures or discusions about topics that the H.A.M.B forbids...

says right in the rules to only bump in three day increments, you bumped your ad every day for a week, and now your breaking the rules by cursing in a thread title. abide by the rules or don't post. simple as that.
i see this thread being closed in 3.. 2.. 1..

Join date "January 2010"? This, in itself, is not an indication of immaturity ignorance or any other negative trait. However, it does tell us that you literally a FNG. This website has a few rules so that we do not take over and turn it into something we do not want. Just as the classifieds are not for 2010 Mustangs. There are rules that must be read and understood. Maybe you should sit back and relax. Most read, learn and when you get the idea, join in. Of course, some may have a bad attitude and should go elsewhere. Which group are you in? (smiling)

Welcome to the HAMB, I would not trust you to send money to you if your not an alliance member.........and you might stick around and read the rules.

It is kinda' like walking into a guys garage and saying that I have this forsale, I would tell you to keep walking down the street. Stick around have a beverage and chat cars and get rid of some of your stuff.

Let's add this up

You get on here and did an intro

Then every single post you made is either wanted or for sale

and now your last post was to start a big flame war.

Maybe you should go cool your heels a little bit.

I have bought lot's of stuff from non-alliance member's and have gotten just what they said the part was. As for this guy I think he should get his act together and read the rules as they apply to everyone, even some self absorbed FNG...:rolleyes:

Rules are what they are... there not for 100% of everyone but they are there for a reason... think if it was okay for everyone to bump a thread when ever they felt like it.. If no one is interested in buying the parts or cars you want to sell having it be the first thing they see on the list isn't going to change anything... the main part of this site is the general discussion board.. to share information. the classified section is a side benefit so we can have some extra cash to buy different stuff and share what we learned about them. at least thats my view... and if ya don't agree with the rules of this site then don't type in jalopyjournal.com on your keyboard....

OK so you've been here a whole month & other than a couple of posts in the intro section, every other post of yours has been in the classifieds and now you're bitching about how the classifieds are run ? Dude this ain't craigslist. The classifieds are a courtesy to the members here, not the reason for this website to exist. I predict that if you don't have a sudden change of attitude yoou probably won't make it around here... Just my 2 cents worth. Just curious too, who are you accusing of spamming you ? The guy who posted a link to the page to sign up for an Alliance membership ? You really are clueless. That's the page to become a paid member of THIS site... Geez....

Ok cool it .

Eli,

Plain and simple you either follow the rules or maybe this sight is not for you.
Attitudes will get you nowhere.
we have a somewhat member monitoring system - guys who bust rules report it to me and I either delete ads or close them.
I donate my time, so..... guys who bust chops don't stay around long.

I don't care if other guys have 5 or 6 ads for different parts - they have to wait 3 days to bump their ads just like everyone else.

My suggestion is to relax - not worry about it, re-read our classified rules so you know how things work around here and enjoy the HAMB.

Actually - usually I just delete ads that bump often, yours I closed. It still shows for other people to see.

Just send me a private message in 3 days and I will look at opening it back up.

Fair........

Thanks and relax and enjoy the HAMB.
