See (taken from clause 10 of the TOS)
Please don't post replies to someone else's ad unless it's specifically related to the item - that is, if you're asking relevant questions about it, perhaps with a view to purchasing.
Keep off-topic and spam posts out of the IceTrade Classifieds. It's not going to help someone sell their gear if the threads contain off-topic posts.
and if I was trying to sell something I don't want comments cluttering up my ad. There is a whole raft of equipment fora here on IIS to give comments on gear, likes and dislikes, why clutter up someone elses ad to do that? I will confess I made a comment on an ad at one time, simply trying to be helpful to a prospective purchaser about some non astro gear that I have personal expertise about and the OP (rightly) was mighty upset about it.
Lets all just take a deep breath, maybe have a read of the TOS and try to be a little more, I dunno, relaxed. Really, its just a forum!!
Oh and there is a specific invitation in the TOS that if any member has a problem with the actions of a mod they can take it up with Mike. Of course it is his site so he can do whatever he likes on it!
