I wonder where all of my latest posts have disappeared to...no one has said anything about why they were removed or if they were moved to another forum. I thought we were allowed to post here to let other forumies have a notice if we were involved in releasing some of our spydies back into the wild. I know I appreciated others who posted good deals or places to find spyderco knives. I recently posted a thread about selling off some knives on ebay and another one about putting some more up tonight. Both are gone now with no notice or forward to another forum here like the 'exchange' section. I had thought exchange was for trading and selling through the Bladeforums. Let me know something about this issue. It sorta offends me that nothing was said and the posts were simply removed from here. Anyhow, I posted here and left reference to this forum because I know on the Spyderco site forum we are not allowed to talk about trades and personal sales of knives. Btw, I use the same ID on ebay if anyone is interested...and if anyone knows why my posts were removed please let me know something on the matter. I like to play by the rules but when no one says anything and they are simply gone how am I suppose to know what I should or should not have done. Thanks! :confused:
 
I deleted both posts. Both deleted posts have markers indicating that they were deleted by me, and both are visible where the threads originally were. One includes a message addressed specifically to you.

You are not allowed to use this forum to let people know that you are personally selling knives on ebay or in the exchange forums. If you do it a third time I'll notify Spark so that he can take higher executive action.

I know this is a grey area where I've allowed people to give a heads up for rare discontinued clipits on Ebay that they are not selling themselves. That is as much as I'm going to allow. Anyone who posts here about knives that they are selling will have their threads deleted.
 
Okay, it seems that only Moderators can see the deleted thread markers. In the future I'm PM or email whomever's thread is being deleted.
 
Thank you Carlos, I was just trying to find out what was going on because I've never really had any problem before with a post. I was not aware of not being able to post that sorta thing here because I've seen stuff posted before from others about some stuff on ebay. I just thought some people would like to know not necessarily to boost my sales or whatever but to help them find something they may be looking for and because it dealt with spyderco knives. I regret that I did not have a way to find out other than asking through a posting to find out what was going on with the issue at hand. Please don't be offended on this matter. I plead ignorance...I would not have done something knowningly if I knew it was not permitted in this forum. I would have appreciated some sort of communication before this post. Don't worry there won't be a third time. :(
