just a thought

[sam tonks]

when deleting peoples post dont you think it would be a good idea. actually a decent idea to send them a quick message like other forums do detailing the reasons for removal. if youve time too remove a post youve time to send the person a message detailing why.
thanks

Although I'm not a mod I'd thought I'd answer on their behalf, they only delete posts / threads that are in breach of the site rules, it's down to new members to familiarise themselves with these rules when they join the site. The mods aren't employed to police the forum so having to message members on their infractions is another time consuming job.

try the search function,,,this has been asked and answered
but like random says, if they showed some respect and read/followed the rules, the threads wouldnt be deleted

I don't know the circumstances, but if you take a look at your profile page there is a message that may relate which was posted about 20 minutes before you put up this thread

Those that are very new to p8ntballer, say joined within the past week or so, whom create a thread in the classifieds that doe not meet the requirments or are in breach of the rules, i normally post up letting them know, and give them a small specific time frame to correct there original post. If however the correction has not been made within a certain given time, i will delete without hesitation.

Members whom have been registered here on p8ntballer for longer should be familiar with the rules and what is expected, just from looking at the vast amount of ads in the classifieds.

If i showed you my inbox with the infinate amount of queries we mods have to deal with every week, maybe then the members would start to understand.

And when i asked you to upload a picture onto your thread of another item you offered up for sale your reply was "pictures can be provided for the hopper if anyone is interested in it" So i deleted the thread as the forum rules were not followed. Picture go up the same time as the item you wish to sell, not when you feel like it.

Today you created another thread with 1, out of date photos, 2, photos with someone elses user name.
So i deleted the thread again!

The rules are clear and simple to follow.

Theres the answer i was looking for thankyou

Actually the answer was provided above, read the rules! It's for your protection and that of others on the forum!
You'll find all of the UK paintball forums have very similar rules regarding buying and selling

 

[CraigofScotland]

They are actually very polite mods over here

If you had done it over on UKS, I'd have deleted the thread, no pm. You think its not polite to delete a post and worthy of a forum thread condemming the lack of politness . . I think its downright rude not to read the rules, then post threads about it.

 

[niallist]

Agreed, mods (here, and us fascists on UKS) have plenty to do without entering into endless pm conversations about some 14 year old, semi literate, buffoon's For Sale thread because they can't be arsed to comply with the rules. (yes, I know old people do it as well).

We do it for free you know, apart from craig, he gets paid loads.
