first of all i apologize for taking up that other thread. i figured that my concern doesnt deal with bonkers at all, but rather the forum rules in general.
That may be the best place for him. The edit feature works well for covering one's tracks. There were also some agreements, which he did not live up to, regarding his price changes. This matter is now closed for further discussion.

id like to re-open the discussion if that is ok. if not, i wont be surprised by a lock. but, unless im mis-interpreting the mod's statement, there is some sort of agreement that i must have missed when signing up regarding price changes? i assume dealing with the fact that lowering prices too much results in a 'vacation'? or does this said agreement only apply to bonkers? if the case is that this is some sort of global rule, i would like to be aware of it so my threads are not locked when selling goods. i dont want to make the same mistake he did. please enlighten me.
Ok, here it is; We were getting complaints of prices being changed. He agreed that he would not be raising them up and down, except once in a 3-5 day period. It took him less than 24 hours, to go back to changing them 3 times in one day. He also directly solicited a member in another forum, which was not in the F/S forum. In the past he has PM'd others about bumping his posts, asking for rating votes, and bumping his own threads and changing text, which he was warned about, then given a timeout. He also edits out his previous sales, so nobody can go back and see what happened. There are other issues, as well, which we will not go into here, as it is not meant to be public knowlege. Now, this is all the explaining we are going to do, and any more threads like this will be promptly locked.
