I think RC has a 50 post min, before you can sell anything.

This is not true according to the User Agreement. As long as this is not of commercial interests the post is fine.

You are probably right Todd...


I haven't read anything regarding this but I would like to see people make SOME posts and contribute something before they begin to turn this into the colorado springs classifieds...JMO

What are the manufacturers? How old is each part?

I agree with you Eric! I think the ruin of the RMRC boards was when it became a flea market with more for sale than anything else. Lets keep this a place mainly for info, with stuff for sale ofcourse but I agree get to know a few people instead of just using it as a free classified ad. There is a place on RC strictly for selling and maybe that'd be the place for a brand new member to start selling? you'd get more exposure anyway.


The problem I see is once this tank sells the poster will never be heard from again, I dont think thats what RC was created for.

I am sorry. Yes I am new to RC, and only heard about it today from another member who told me that I should list my tank on this site. I did read the Users Agreement and did not see anything about the 50 post min. I thought this site was for people with the same interest in the hobby and by no means meant to turn RC into a flea market, etc., but only to pass along a good deal to someone I thought would appreciate it.

I did not mean to a upset anyone. And with this warm welcome, Chris' comment about me never being heard from again is probably true.

Sorry again.

"The goal is to promote fellowship and build a support network for enthusiasts of all skill levels."

Anyway, I'd like to know more details about what you're selling. Pics are always welcome.

 

[zombiereef]

let them sell!!!!

 

[Crit21]

Agree. Who cares if she has one post? Isn't this the best forum in C Springs to sell a complete marine setup with livestock? Besides, she hasn't violated any WRITTEN RULES.

Apparently not in this forum what is that 2 new people made to feel unwelcome this week alone.

Nice to see things haven't changed.

 

[reefkoi]

things havent changed? why do you say that? who cares what I say, i am a nobody just like you so why get offended?
If I said your store sucks or said it was the most incredible fish store I had ever walked into would either statement be true? who knows its all just opinions. I have one just like yours.
I always say opinions are like a holes everybody has one and nobody cares!
enjoy your SCMAS board post more often o.k. and join in the fellowship with constructive help once in a while too o.k.!
Its o.k. to speak whats on your mind here, nothing against that, unless the mods feel there is then they'll edit your post and you'll understand how it all works.
o.k. enough ranting for me for one night.
I love you all!
Sincerely,
Christo

My intent was not to make the poster feel unwelcomed...heck, I'd like to see her post on a regular basis if she stays in the hobby.

BTW Keith, RC is sort of the way it is and it won't change, people have varying opinions...this forum is very mild compared to many others.

 

[Mustang394]

Chris and Eric,

I don't often post here, because I too have never been made to feel overly welcome here, why because I own a business, ok so be it. I read this forum and many others because quite often there is alot of good knowledge and experiance shared here.

Was I offended by anything that was said here not in the least, I was however bother to see a good person almost reduced to tears, because someone suggested that she post her tank here to see if anyone who read the forum might be intrested in her setup at a very reasonable price. (No it wasn't me)

Because other forums on RC are rough does that mean this one has to be too? I for one would like to believe we live in a better community than most.

 

[reefkoi]

A good person almost reduced to tears? really? if I caused this I am sorry. However online forums are not a place to be if you are easilly hurt, people can and should be able to say whats on their minds, I dont think I or eric said anything hurtful that would have caused any tears. I simply agreed and threw in my 2¢ about this becoming a flea market. I sell things here, so maybe I'm just a hypocrite?
But I feel like I try to contribute as much on possible here and in a lot of other areas of reef central. I think some people jump in and post only when they see somebody being "attacked" if you will.

Did you tell her to post her tank for sale here?

And as far as being welcome maybe it has to be earned as I have seen it put before. Harsh but maybe the reality. You know some forums are so lighthearted and welcoming that you never know if you are getting the truth or someone is telling you your tank is wonderful just to make you feel good.
Personally I'd rather get an honest answer or be put in my place if needed rather than be patted on the back and get a warm fuzzy hug.

Thats me though, maybe some other members of SCMAS can chime in with their thoughts.

Thought I made that clear, I don't know who told her about RC she didn't say and I didn't ask.

LOL are you trying to say something here? Your right I will post when ever I feel I have something to constructive to add and if anyone doesn't like it too bad. Thanks for the advice.

 

[reefkoi]

you are good! thats a fine attitude, thats what forums are for if somebody doesnt like it too bad, thats why I post what I feel also! You can jump me for it, and I can jump you back its really all too bad on everybody that doesnt like it right?

What are we even talking about anymore here. I am lost.....sigh
Its past my bedtime, and the dehydration from earlier activities is kicking it

I can see this tread getting closed though, its heading for MOD closure

Its my fault though, dang it I need to be nicer to the newbies.
I need help, maybe a self help book or drugs of some sort...
Chris.

seriously though

You're right, this forum doesn't have to be "rough"...I would hope people can understand that in an open forum like this, there will always be disagreements. I think insinuating that she "was brought to tears" is hyperbole at best...she said she had no intent of posting here after posting the tank F/S. That's fine, she did what was with in the rules. It is also with in the RC rules to voice an opinion of people using the forum soley for selling items, and not for contributing to the discourse that brings all of these people to one place benefiting the seller/one time poster.

It's not a huge deal to me, but I felt an opening to speak my mind when Ebmorri posted...
