Slam fest in the classifieds!

This is exactly the behavior that I thought was no longer allowed on the classified forums.

People like spj, jas and a few others telling sellers what they should be selling and not selling and to whom they should sell to etc, etc. this is wrong!

Maybe I'm mistaken, please correct me if I am wrong.

I've been watching the 2 threads you are talking about (even though you only linked one, I suspect there is another ). While I have been tempted to intervene, I have been hesitant to do so. Both sellers know how to delete ads should they so choose, and, particularly in the case of the one linked, some useful info has come into focus and saved at least one potential buyer from possibly making a mistake. As noted by Rich in a current Sound Off thread, there are substantial pros and cons to allowing people to post responses to classified ads...and sometimes the responses do reveal some important information. That is why each seller has the option to leave them open or close them.

For that reason, I am not inclined to randomly go in and stop the interactions or close the threads. However, posters in both ads are at risk of incurring warnings or infractions.
Guess I should go back and take a peak at what is happening in the other ad now

Give me a break Ed.

When did you become the all high and mighty ethical man?

Commenting on JnJ's ad, posting a snide remark in one of your ads as a veiled shot at JnJ, and starting the discussion in the BP forum.

Just because someone has the cash, does not mean they should be sold an animal when they have proven they are not ready to deal with a problem animal (and that was what was advertised).

A little slow lately.

If you all want to slam a particular member, then the BOI is for that. Doing so outside of the BOI is going to be earning some people "infraction" points.

Yea Ed, Keep it in the BOI or take it to HELL where it belongs in the first place...

We finally locked the add, its to bad because there was a lot of valuable information in that thread that a lot of people could have learned from. A lot of good questions were brought up, and we try to answer them all the best we can, but I am not going to put up with a low life like ed raising hell just because he needs some xtra sales.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the valuable discussion in that add.
