No bloody posts of his were deleted. Simple as that.



Try this one
And this one
Happy now? They were never deleted.



Absolute rubbish. Send me a specific example of this happening or I'm going to start getting really mad at your ridiculous claims.
Either 3 things are happening:
1. You have absolutely no idea what you posted in and what you didn't
2. You have no idea how to find the threads you posted in
3. You're trolling and purposely posting this thread, and continuing to post in this thread (without even contacting me) with the intent of causing problems.

If it's #1 or #2, a little education might help and you can apologise to myself and the moderators for the accusations and admit your own fault.
If it's #3 you'll find yourself on a permanent holiday from IceInSpace.




Seriously Leon?
The rule wasn't made up just because I felt like it. It was because people ASK for chatter to be deleted in THEIR for sale threads.
It's because some people think it's a good idea to post things like negative comments that could hurt the sale.
Even when the comments don't hurt the sale, some people think it's the seller getting their 'friends' to comment to try and make the sale look better than it really is. So it then still hurts the sale.

You can't post chatter to ads on ebay.
You can't post chatter to ads on trading post, or in the paper.
You can't post chatter to ads on IceTrade.

There's been times we've almost setup the system to completely disallow ANY comments on the IceTrade threads, simply to avoid having to have the TOS 'ask' people not to post chatter. That way it would FORCE people to ask questions via PM and we wouldn't have this issue.

People like to post their 'PM sent' etc so we haven't implemented this yet.

But when some people (Leon and Brian included) continue to post chatter in IceTrade, despite having your posts continually deleted in IceTrade, it certainly makes me think a forced system implementation would be better.

There's 22 different sub-forums you can post replies on. Don't post in IceTrade unless you're selling something or asking a question with the possible intention of buying the item. It's a really simple rule.
