I can see that some folks are starting to do this again, some new and some who ought to know better.

Keep it up and Spark and Glockman are going to get p'ed off, and rightfully so!!!

Come on folks, we know how to read the rules, right?:(
 
Agreed. We don't need any extra grief. Many others have a gripe against us all ready because we have the best knives. :D

Seriously though, perhaps some reminders with examples would help.

Good:
I'll take it.
Pics?
Next in line.

Bad:
I can't believe I missed this.
Nice score.

etc...
 
Another example of bad (sorry, I just can't help myself) :D

Ummm, I just went to eat my bowl of cereal. It's Capn' Crunch, ya know! Hey, how come they don't put prizes in there any more???:confused: Sheesh, I come back to buy a knife and it's already gone. What is the world coming to???
 
I indulged ONCE in a comment in the Busse FS forum- and got nailed with an infraction for it. I see others get away with just as much or worse every day.

I KNOW what your talking about:D.........its funny, there's no infraction yet.
 
Maybe Eric "the Bully" will show up! ;)
 
I had thought that when they put us off in a corner by ourselves it was so they COULD cut us some slack. At least I thought that was part of the sales pitch.:confused: :confused:

Hey, ever since Skunk started to offer credits for infractions at the CO. Store I am all for the mods handing them out by the boat load. :D

Glockman as a moderator, and Spark as the owner of BF, deserve a little respect...something that seems all too lacking in your response. ANY Mod has the ability to ban you for various valid reasons. Acquire enough infractions and it's only a matter of time before one gets kicked off BF for good. Challenging a mod publically will cause referenced demise to happen at light speed. YMMV :D

Back to more important things... Busse Knives !!!

Agreed, I especially dont like when people get on a make a smartass comment!! :mad:
 
The mod's, me included, try to do our best to catch anyone that isn't following the rules and give warnings/infractions where needed. The rules do still apply in the Busse For Sale forum, this includes "No Chatting". I don't go out of my way to find people that aren't following the rules but if I see them I usually will let you know ;) I also know that the other mods do not look for people to give infractions to, there are a lot of members on BF and we do our best to keep things working smoothly. Sometimes this requires that we give out warnings and or infractions.

What it comes down to is if you are not an interested buyer asking questions or a seller answering a question, stay out of the for sale threads. If you see something that you think a Moderator should know about hit the little "report post" on the upper right of the thread.

Personally I have had a sick wife (flu) for 6 days and a sick child (also the flu) for 3 days so I haven't been as active on the forums as I usually am.

If this turns into a thread complaining about how the mods do their jobs it will not have a pretty ending. If someone see's something that they want me to see drop me an email or PM.

UJ,
This is not what I would consider a whine and cheese thread. But let's say that it is. The issue here is restricted to the Busse FS sub-forum. That forum will IMO most likely be viewed by the same folks who peruse the Busse forum, ie. folks that are interested in and may like to buy Busse knives.

There is a lesser chance that someone here (Busse fans) would stumble across this thread if it was in W&C versus here. That is why I put it here. I was actually trying to help out unnamed offenders by posting the thread in what I thought was the most likely place that the offenders would read it. After all, many simply neglect to read the rules.

I concur. I hand out infractions when I see chatting, but we've been sick around here for the last three weeks as well.
 
NOOO ! In a fit of RAGE I was dinged and taken to task last year and was told by one of the Almighty that all I was allowed to post was an "I WILL TAKE IT" Or they would cast me into the DARKNESS!

Beware - the little gods are not to be messed with!

(Their Boards - Their RULES! - no infractions since 8-25-07!! :) )
