xaosslug is a twat

um... not sure if I'm gonna reply to your entire post, point-by-point (again) because well, you seem to be getting a little heated. But this:

Crisis said:
The administration of NeoGAF does not have to accept liability within this thread to moderate it. For example, if I went to the NBA thread and posted a rumor that says "xaosslug raped LeBron James' dog", and got banned for it and my post deleted, that does not mean that NeoGAF is legally liable for any other claims or rumors within that thread.

is not the same (fucked up, as well!) thing as someone in this thread getting scammed out of $1000+ and being misguided in holding GAF accountable, but errkay...

aside: I have actually been scammed, a few times (even on here), and it is not something I would wish on anyone, nor would I threaten a scammer with ANYTHING but getting the law involved. Also, wrt you wishing I would leave the thread: you are free to do so. But like I said; I'll continue to monitor the thread for awesome deals, or requests for stuff I happen to have and wish to sell! <3

Crisis said:
I just got PM'd back by a moderator, and this is what was said to me directly:



Now, I PM'd that moderator back asking how we should obtain that consensus. Whether we should vote within this thread, whether we should create a separate thread and vote in that, or if we should go with what I suggested within this thread since a bunch of people did agree with it. I am awaiting a response from the moderator, and I will update accordingly.

great! Like I said, it was incredibly presumptuous of you to post up rules/guidelines and expect anyone to come correct w/o some muscle behind you. And perhaps, I missed the census form you sent out and polling results? x-D

If you're going to completely and totally ignore what I said in that post, and make up a bunch of shit about it, don't respond at all. And by the way, I never, ever wrote that first sentence. That is not a quote. If you're trying to get me in trouble with the moderators or something, you'd better try harder. I figured you were better than outright lying about things I've said. Here's the actual quote, since you're trying so very hard to make it look like I crossed the line with that:

I sell on many other forums and all have basic rules that are clear and enforced. This though is single thread dedicated to us trading and selling, there is no individual threads and we are all sharing the same store front=thread. This more than a sub forum dedicated fs/t thread should warrant more of respect for individual sellers, traders and buyers.

And even without very clear ground rules there should be a little self policing. If a complaint is valid and seems to be coming up often like those that keep reposting a very long image heavy post you should expect those doing it to acknowledge the complaint and stop doing it. Its unfair to the other sellers and traders who are sharing the thread.


Also have 4 suggestions.

-Hours rather than waiting every 150 post. A lot of forums follow this rule. 12-24 hours before you can repost your items though you can edit the original. Also, once reposted the previous post should be edited if was heavy on images and text.

-Image amount and size limit along with maybe a text limit. Something basic like 3-5 images no bigger than 640x420. The less images the bigger they can be but no bigger than 1024x768. Also no wall of text which could maybe better enforced by may limiting the amount of items you can have for sale at given time to maybe 1-10.

-We should adopt Heatware and and abandon the Google document so we can cleary check and leave feedback rather than cluttering the thread. I doubt any of is really checks it. We can also link Heatware right under our posts for easy view.

-Thread title should reflect the date of the amended rules. ie, something like...please read new rules before posting.

The creation of that thread will probably mean the end of B/S/T on NeoGAF :-\

Crisis said:
I think you're confused as to who the "loud, small group" is. You, on the other hand, are completely ignoring anyone that isn't yourself, telling them to place you on ignore or adblock.




Maybe you should have just stayed the fuck out of it and not tried to have caused any more problems by piling on, not knowing what you were talking about. If you want to do this in the thread, we can do that. You'll still be wrong, ignorant, and hypocritical.



And you're still completely wrong, as usual. All you care about is yourself, so maybe I shouldn't be surprised by that. First of all, they shouldn't have to put you on ignore or adblock you. You should just maybe stop reposting your shit all the time. Even if they put you on ignore/adblock your stuff, with the frequency of your reposting, it still raises the post count, which means more reposts.

You're no longer being level-headed or reasonable enough to have a productive conversation with.

I'm not being level-headed? You're being selfish, telling everyone else that you're going to do whatever you want, and if they don't like it, they can put you on ignore. You're over there intentionally trying to start shit with me. I think you're the one not being reasonable here.

I've come at this issue with nothing but respect. I haven't even cursed at you once.

You're dead set at 150 posts per. I even said 'hey, let's meet in the middle at 100' , and you're yammering on about 'Noooo, 150'. You're the unreasonable one here.

He makes a good point though-- and one I've made before. You can ignore / adblock me or any other seller than you're tired of seeing. No seller has ever posted more than once per default 50 post page.
Once per 50 posts is far too often. If everyone followed that suggestion, and from what I see, many people unfortunately do, we end up with bursts of "for the new page" and in reality, it's only been maybe one day since we last saw the post.

The more frequently people repost, the more frequently people feel the need to repost. It snowballs and gets really annoying. If people would repost less often, posts would stay on the most recent pages for much longer.

I really appreciate photos, as long as they are relatively small and ideally have a link to full-size. We just don't need to see them every other day. It actually drives away potential sales. To use you as an example, I have seen your same post so often that even if you added new stuff, I wouldn't know because I now immediately scroll past your entire post every time.

*edit* I just discovered the ignore function. Cool

And sorry to continue the discussion here. I hadn't refreshed the page in a few hours. Back to business.

That's unfortunate, but that's also your choice and I'm totally okay with that.

All of my pictures are the same width so item changes are probably hard to notice. If things have been there for a while, I do adjust the prices. I also clean up the old post every single time-- just so people don't have to see my post twice on a page, regardless of posts per page setting.
 
Can you guys take this to a different thread? Start a new thread in the community forum to argue this instead of in the b/s/t thread so that people's offerings don't get buried.

Edit: Saw suggestion above. And yeah, I do fear that the b/s/t might be closed too. I don't want it to, have sold and bought many things here.

Looking to buy Xenoblade Chronicles. If someone could sell me a copy or if someone from the U.K. could buy it from amazon or somewhere else and ship it to the U.S I would be much obliged. The ebay prices are pretty ridiculous right now.

That's weird. Amazon UK used to let me buy items from their store even though I'm in the states. Is it just video games that are restricted?

Well I just put Knee on my ignore list. Sigh.

I think we all need to just calm down, give this some time, and see what the Mods come back with. Endless augments and name-calling isn't going to solve anything. If anything, it makes this thread more of a liability than a benefit.

We all love this thread, for our various reasons, so lets try to keep our crap together, ok?


Please make your opinion count in this thread rather passively asking mods to figure it out. We'll be much better off if the thread participants decide their own fate here:

I'm not sure if it's just video games, but it said Xenoblade couldn't be shipped here.
 
OK, selling some stuff that I wished I didn't have to. Poo. If you're interested, send me a PM. I'm also open to trades and am mainly interested in SNES games, a NES console and NES games, or a original Game Boy and original Game Boy games.

Bought Royal Tramp 2 - Blu-Ray in Hong Kong, but when I got back realized I already owned it.

This is a comedy starring Stephen Chow, the guy in Kung Fu Hustle and Shaolin Soccer. The blu-ray is only available overseas and is not sold in the US. It will however work in US BD players.

It is BRAND NEW. $20 shipped.

it's more that I KNOW how big of a risk a thread like this is to a forum such as NeoGAF, and I appreciate what bount I've been given. I honestly don't 'long for more' so I guess I need to dream bigger? I have many ideas for this thread... but eh, who the fuck am I to start shaking things up? Live and let live, as long as nobody's getting hurt. I must say plain old courtesy has been gradually eroding in this thread, but I've learned to deal with it. *shrug* It doesn't bother me that peeps are trying to 'improve' the thread, but it does bother me the attitude many peeps that are,- IMO, VERY new to the thread - feel the need to 'help' all us 'poor unfortunate souls' that have been on these threads for years, and just DEALING WITH IT. I would LOVE to make loads of sweeping changes to this thread 'for the better' but at the same time, there are OTHER POSTERS in this thread, and what they want needs to be taken into consideration, which apparently does not matter to you?

anyway, I've actually NOT been actively selling anything on this thread for many moons, aside from a Black Ops Prestige Edition, and yeah part of it was because of all the BS politics that have come to the fore. What can I say? I cannot deal with it. :-(

This is some straight up bullshit. So because I'm newer than you I can't voice my opinion on what has clearly become an issue in the thread? Give me a fucking break, I've already had 3 transactions on here (but even if I've had none I feel the point still stands) so I like to think that my opinion would be valid. Sorry if I don't want to roll over and "deal with it".

Plus at the end you go on to say that you haven't sold anything in "many moons" because of all the BS politics that have come up, well this stuff (as in when Crisis returned and made the suggestions) just came up a few days ago so that statement makes it sound like you left a while ago due to how shitty the threads been getting, which only reinforces Crisis' arguments.

In the end you sound very cynical to me.

And to Crisis, I do appreciate what you're trying to do with the thread and I feel all the things you've brought up are things that should be addressed.


Back to the point of the thread.
For Sale: I have a Beatles Rock Band Gretsch guitar controller for sale (george harrisons), the guitar is in perfect cosmetic and working condition and comes complete with box and everything that was provided within, asking $100 shipped (within the US). Will edit with some pictures once I get home.

Come on Crisis you should not have taken this so seriously especially being that its mostly Knee that seems hellbent on bringing the thread down. It will work it self out and I can honestly say your input should matter more than most being that you attempted and did sort things out before some just became blatant with trying to fuck shit up by not adhering to common courtesy in spite of all the criticism. Put shit back to normal.

No packaging, just the controller. I have sold some games here on Neogaf, no problems, buy with confidence. Give me some cereal money, lol.
 
I personally think that Crisis' rules were fine and should be implemented. This thread can be a free-for-all at times and I think it needs more rules along the lines of something like CheapAssGamer's trading forum. The problem here is that the B/S/T is like a big, giant trading forum into one thread. Crisis' rules were only to help, not to harm. Some of you just don't like the fact that there were rules being imposed, because it meant you couldn't post your ebay auction links or repost your listing as soon as a new page sprung up.

Sadly, it just turned the thread into a drama-filled, weave-pulling cat fight. Such a shame.

Yep. We operated for MONTHS with no problems until about a month where the excessive bumping of text and image heave post became annoying to many as it was becoming so blatant.

Why one or two seem hellbent on fucking shit up for all is beyond me.
