    Default Private Exhibitions - Still no pics !!!

    Does make you wonder why despite untold attempts to get folk to read the rules and use common sense, we're still seeing posts for items sometimes up for thouŁandŁ, no pics.....

    Plenty good quantity pics from every angle of actual item should be standard thinking somehow, in my book, regardless of price.

    Might be an idea now to have in red next to the words Private Exhibitions - MUST INCLUDE QUALITY PICTURES, FRONT REAR, TOP SIDES ETC OF ACTUAL ITEM & INCLUDE PRICE !!!

    I'm sure mods could do this.

    If that doesn't do it, nothing will

    If it can be done (I'm not sure how to amend the wording of entire 'rooms') we might try it.

    In the meanwhile, any items put up for sale in Private Exhibitions without photos are deleted immediately.

    My own view is those here just to sell, don’t contribute to the forum who are repeat offenders should lose posting rights in private exhibitions. Frankly I am tired of chasing lazy entitled people who think that its ok to try and sell anything with out pictures. I am sure they are among the first demanding pictures when they are looking to buy stuff.

    I don’t pm any more to be greeted with attitude, I just delete the listings, that break the rules.
    Regards Neil

    When you click on Private Exhibitions, you then see Post New Thread, directly under that is Forum:Private Exhibitions. Now it could go next to that, you just couldn't miss it,

    so Forum:Private Exhibitions - MUST INCLUDE QUALITY PICTURES, FRONT REAR, TOP SIDES ETC OF ACTUAL ITEM & INCLUDE PRICE !!! Ad will otherwise be deleted immediately!

    If that doesn't work then as I say, nothing will .....(You forfeit the right to be on any forum I'd say )

    It may well do Robbie, but to edit the "Forum:Private Exhibitions" may require permissions held only by Admin; we Moderators cannot do it ourselves.

    As I say, any 'for sale' posts made that do not include photos at the time of posting (not "images to follow", or links to photo-hosting sites) will be immediately deleted without warning.

    Can I also suggest that in the current environment classifieds are only permitted for postage and that collection is not an option to be offered until this all blows over?

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    True but as we know some die hard audiophiles might see this as essential

    It's not just their own lives they're risking but everyone's through spreading it.
