Lock Please

[CorCentral]

Been out of the loop for about a year selling in there and I'm not sure on this.

1--- I list an item for $X.00 dollars. Is it ok to include "Or best Offer" in the listing?


2--- Forgetting to enable your profile/email address will get you written up and possibly banned? Even people that have clean trading records like me can get written up if they "FORGET" to enable the email address in their Profile?

I just got reamed by a mod earlier today telling me it was my 2nd infraction and I'd get the boot next time if I made the mistake of not enabling my email in my Profile. I just forgot, seriously :roll: I haven't sold anything in that forum for about a year!

I'll try to not make that mistake again if it's true.

EDIT: Thanks for the advice RudeGUY. Just did this.

 

[Q]

1) Yes
2) I don't think 'banned' but the mods will lock the thread and ask you to enable your profile for viewing.

I'm not naming the mod but this is what was sent to me:

Please read the rules for our For Sale/Trade forum.
You MUST display your profile, including your email address (a separate check box), to participate on this forum.

Go to the Profile page, then Personal Options to ensure Profile Visibility AND E-mail Visibility are both set to ON.

This is your 2nd warning for this infraction, your next will earn you a vacation. While you are at it, please read ALL of these rules before you post again.

Sounds like you should have listened the first time.

The mods keep their notes for that long? Whats the statute of limitations around here????

If you ever want serious answers, post something like this in personal forum issues.
