Sure, if that's what you want to use the site for, there's a section called Member to Member flea market for items that don't fit in any of the existing categories.

edit - oops I see Brian already pointed that out!

Do you deliver?

Can my opinion or Hyperbole be defamatory?-No. Is it a stretch to believe that someone who allows such sales on his website approves of it? Would it be a stretch to believe that if Child Pornography was allowed on a site, that the owners approved of such behavior? And I do not for one second believe that you gave a crap weather I stayed or went prior to this thread. Before you knew who I was you definitely did not give a crap. Seems like you do now. Well maybe not the stay part. I was told by a mod, that this was the place to discuss policy that we do not agree with, is this not the correct forum to disagree with the policies of the classified ad section?

You made a statement. It was not labelled an opinion, and is defamatory. You are backpedalling for your own safety now, it seems.

Do you know what IMHO stands for? In My Humble OPINION. Now go back and re-read that.

Here is the bottom line: This is Rich's website. Not yours. You can sit there and complain all day but it's his say that goes. If you don't like, leave. No one forces you stay here.

You also used the phrase 'does in fact'. Go reread it.

Agreed. This is Rich's site. He has made it clear that it is his way or the highway I heard it from him the first time. But is this is or is this aint the forum we are supposed to use when we disagree with Rich? That being said, I accept Rich's answer in that he likes the site just the way it is. That my grievances were heard, and my answer was no.

In my humble opinion Strip Neck Musk Turtles do in fact taste like chicken. In my humble opinion the world is in fact...Flat. In my humble opinion the moon is in fact made of green cheese and poprocks.
It is my intention to not carry this emotionally charged discussion any further. The verdict has been read, the prosecution rests. I will comply with the verdict and all rules of the forum. I will only use the means provided via the BOI to expose scammers when possible and when proof can be provided. Just like this one http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...d.php?t=397584

You are right, I didn't give a crap then. Simply because you never got on my radar screen. And I give even less of a crap (half a crap?) to have you remain here now. "IMHO" might work elsewhere and in other circumstances, but when you are making such accusations ABOUT the owner of a site ON that site, well, do you really think I want to keep the welcome mat out for you? Heck, anyone could say anything derogatory they wanted about me and think they were immune from the "Big Meanie" side of me simply by prefacing the phrases with "IMHO". Do you seriously think that's how it works here?

And yes, this is the forum to discuss the policies of this site, but there does not exist any forum on this site where it it perfectly OK for you to take potshots at me. I'm not really sure how you came to that conclusion, but apparently you did.

In answer to that:

Anything of a nature concerning this website, moderators, admin, or anything having to do with how it is being run, should go here. Criticism is welcome, but abusive antagonism is not.

Your accusatory statement fits handily into the category of "abusive antagonism", IMHO. See how that IMHO works?

Sorry fella, I really don't care to have people who think they can bitch slap me around on my own site utilizing the fruits of my labors. And I dare say that you would feel the same damned way if our roles were reversed.

So here is a suggestion that I believe will be in your best interests. Go away for a while and I will forget about you eventually. Luckily this sort of crap doesn't stick in my mind for very long. But stay, and every time I see your name online here, I will be reminded about the bitch slap you felt was perfectly OK because you felt "IMHO" gave you some sort of immunity. Eventually I'll get irritated enough of seeing your name here and thinking of this that I WILL ban you. And I can guarantee that the ban will be a LOT longer than the time it will take me to forget you if you just get lost for a while.

That's the deal. I'll be watching for you. If I see your name here again before I forget about you, there will be NO warning about the ban.

Yeah, I know, "Big Meanie" must be getting soft in his old age. A while back I would have just banned him right away and to hell with him.
