I erroneously posted a wanted to buy in this forum and thanks to Herr Moderator, it was moved and threats issued....but in any event it was moved to Wanted to Buy forum. It seems mine is the only post there...is this a new forum?
 
No, because you are a registered user, you can only see your own posts in the WTB forum. If you were a dealer, gold/platinum member or knife maker, you could see other posts.

Sometimes, some of the rules can seem silly, not in this instance, we have a WTB forum for a reason. Everyone makes mistakes. The mods might get pissed off dealing with the same stuff day in and day out, but threatening? Nope.

This should probably be moved to Tech Support by the way.

How is this a threat? This is the message you got aside from the direct quote from the rules.
BTW: this thread is going where it belongs in Service and Support, As General KNIFE discussion is not an anything goes subforum.

Please take time to look around and post threads in the proper places.
Sales/trades/want to buy belong in the Exchange not in discussion forums.
Your thread has been moved to the WTB forum.

Lol...I was joking and I have been a member of this forum for a long time. Some moderators do take their role a little seriously sometimes though. Surely you and others have experienced that. Ok, I did know that you had to be at least gold to post in the for sale etc. I have been gone a while, and I am usually gold as since I have sold a few knives on this forum.....and yes some of the rules are silly.

You should probably take time to re-read the rules. Alot has changed.

If you have a problem with the rules or site moderation, i would suugest that you discuss it with the site owner, he is the one making the rules.
It is the moderators task to see that these rules are upheld in fairness to all members.

I've seen that forum too and it seemed that it wasn't being used. I thought about posting there but I didn't want to be the only one.
 
Let me clarify. Some rules may seem silly, but they are Spark's rules, and are enforced by Mods that do not get paid, but help Spark keep Bladeforums a fun place to visit and hang out. I still follow the rules.

You wouldn't be. You as a registered user can only see your own threads there, but anyone with a paid membership high enough to allow them to sell here can see all of the threads.
 
Its alll sorted and my attempt of humor will be curtailed when dealing with mods in the future. Rules is rules...unless your a politician!...oops..one more:D

A bit of advice, if you wish your posts to be taken as humorous, you might want to learn to use the smileys. just sayin'
 
Rule #1: Don't be a dick. Seriously, why tweak the nose of people who volunteer to help this community, especially when text is terrible at showing true emotional intent?

Otherwise, thread closed.
