Hey Beckerphiles...
Just an additional reminder for now, as a sticky, to be revised, and put into the FAQ later... but putting it RIGHT OUT THERE and up top.
Just a little reminder from mod guy... Other than eat your wheaties and READ the Becker FAQ (esp if you're new) that is... ESPECIALLY this part:
http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showpost.php?p=7777591&postcount=2 which is covered in more detail below...
Read the main forum rules too!
http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/faq.php
read them again!
Bladeforums doesn't tolerate out of band sales, even if you're gold or better in membership... I know we're usually cool here about that, but sometimes it's a little close, and HAS crossed the line. The SOOPER mods notice it faster than I do somehow, they have eyes in the back of their keyboards or something. So don't do it!
Links - BF forbids deal spotting and link posting. If you found a deal, you can (iirc) convey that information in words... just don't provide the link. It's a sales advert and as above, BF doesn't tolerate it.

Values... Per the FAQ, don't ask the value of your stuff. There's other places to figure that out (like ePray). Sure, show off your cool old rare stuff, but don't drop implications that it's also for sale unless you're gold or above *and* have a sales thead elsewhere (and don't link to it). Even that might be officially pushing it.
Same for trades... There's a sub-forum for that. Trust me, the search engine works just fine, people will find you.
Vending... We have lots of valued vendors here... You want to show off your wares... Just be really careful on that line and advertising for sales/etc. This goes double for the Beckheads... Ask not PUBLICLY for information which will cause trouble, send email/PM.
Spamming? Well, guess what! NO! Great way to get banned super fast.
(Sooper mods, any corrections or additions, let me know, this will go into the updated FAQ)...
