I just checked his post history, every single post from 1-1-10 is in the Ford sale section and every single one is post 0. He never posts in any other section, never adds to his for sale post or contributes anything to this site..... I guess the upside is he doesn't post any donut video's. Everyone should keep his PM inbox flooded with total BS messages, maybe he'll get the point that we aren't happy with him spamming this site. If you don't contribute SOMETHING and are treating it like Craigslit you should be gone.

If we did this, 2/3rd's of the folks on this site would be gone. We have LONG time members who post nothing but parts for sale.

no one is bitching about him selling parts but rather the way he chooses to post his fs ads...rather then making a single thread and bumping it he just copies and paste's a new one 50+ times when it could all be just 1 thread

For sure 86 Maier is doing a good gob fucking up the CA for sale section, but in my opinion there are a lot of dip shits in the CA fords for sale section doing far more irritating shit than 86 Maier.

Example:

Thread headings that simply read; parts for sale, mustang parts for sale.

How about you dip shits write a heading that lets people know exactly what you are selling right off the bat?

For sale ads with no price. There should be some rule that for sale posts without a price will be deleted.

Parts For sale posts with no pics. Vehicle for sale post with no pics.


No description of the part or vehicle being sold. I swear to fuckin god, I've seen a dip shit write a for sale thread for a vortech blower and the tread had no info about the blower at all. Is it a V1,V2, V3?
is it a S, SQ, SC or T trim? is the blower CCW?

Ah, if CA fords had these rules in place, the bull shit and stupidity that takes place in the For sale forms would be cut significantly.

Sale / Trade rules - ALL NEW MEMBERS MUST READ BEFORE POSTING!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This particular section of the board is unique, IMO. If you buy or sell something from the XXXX.com Sale / Trade section, you know you're not going to get ripped off. This site takes a dim view of folks making an illegitimate buck off its members. We will police our own.

Don't force me to be a forum Nazi. However, I will be happy to dump a thread or show someone the door when needed.

Basic policies:

Newbie Retards/Fresh Meat - are NOT permitted to post on this forum without approval from the mod.. If a FM posts an ad without approval, it gets deleted - no warnings, no chit-chat....it's gone.

Ebay listings - if it's your own Ebay listing, you can list it here. If you've found something that is beneficial to the general XXXX.com membership ( 93 Cobra MC or Booster, 17" rims for cheap, etc ), post it. However, it then becomes the original posters responsibility to update the thread. If it's a "Hey, check out this asshat selling his mother's Yugo with the AOL green flashy-thing on the hood", keep on walking. Post that in GD so LT can toss your ass around for awhile.

Selling items - start your thread with a simple FS:, or For Sale:, or WTS, followed by a description of what your selling.

Buying/looking for items - start with WTB, or Want to Buy, or WTT, Want to Trade, etc. By doing this, someone perusing the forum knows exactly what's going on at a quick glance.

Pricing - if you post something, put a price on it. Please, don't do the, "Hey, I'm thinking about selling my case of synthetic blinker fluid, how much do you guys think it's worth?" No price, no more thread.

Contact information - include any pertinent contact information. If you want to sell your stuff, shouldn't people be able to contact you? How about letting people know where the item you're selling is located?

Regular updates - be sure to check your thread regularly (do I really have to say this?) to see if, heaven forbid, someone wants to buy your stuff. If you have a garage full of things to sell, and little by little things go to new owners, update your thread. Once all your stuff is sold, an update is required. Something simple like, "All items have been sold."

Common sense - include as much relevant information about your stuff as possible, like part numbers, year/make/model, the parts and equipment it fits, location - it helps reduce the number of PM's, emails, and phone calls from people asking questions. Don't ASSume that your user location is enough - put the actual location of the parts in the post.

Edits - this will be the same as any other section of this site. You edit, you explain.

Grammar, punctuation, spelling - I'm the first to admit I make grammatical and spelling errors from time to time. However, horrific mistakes that can be corrected with a simple check via MS Word won't be tolerated. The more articulate and clear your post is, the more clout it will carry.

Hijacks - let's try to keep this to a minimum. I understand that a sale item may attract questions from other board members. PM'ing would be considered good etiquette, but that could exclude possible good tech for other folks. If the questions get involved, consider starting a new thread in the appropriate forum, with a link to the S/T section for additional clarification.

TTT/Bump - using TTT/bump is sooo unimaginative. If you want your post brought back to the top so people can see it, be creative about it. If you can't be imaginative and only know how to use TTT, maybe you should rethink your advertising sKilLZ, y0. If you abuse the TTT thing, your thread will get deleted. And before someone jumps my ass about using TTT on another board - it's acceptable elsewhere. It isn't here.

Commercial/business - this hasn't changed. No commerical or business postings. Private sale only.

Deleting old threads/listings - there are several threads in the S/T section that have significant tech and are beneficial. Many people like to see what a similar part/product has sold for in the past. The majority of the threads will stay, especially if they contain tech. Some threads ( plug wires that either sell, or never get a response ) will get deleted. Kapeesh?

Sale of weapons and weapons related items - The sale of handguns, rifles, and related items are NOT permitted on XXXX.com. Non-negotiable. Period, end of statement.

As surprising as this may be, we've had a few recent incidents in the Sale/Trade section that required the mods to get involved. And, no one is pleased about it. It's gonna get ugly if this trend continues.

So, here's the skinny - if you have sold some widget to a cc'er, and that person has paid you....ship the damn thing, and email/PM the tracking number. Don't fuck around, wait 30-some-odd days, ignore the buyer, etc, etc. Get on the stick, and complete the transaction. Likewise, if you're the buyer, and the widget hasn't shown up, contact the seller in a timely manner to work out the details. The longer each party waits, the harder it is to resolve the issue. Be timely in all your correspondence. Seriously?? We have to say this???

If you're having trouble with a transaction, contact a mod right away. We'll help you get it straightened out.

Ok, post away, you sell'n fools.....
