I was Fado, and was just trying to sell some games and systems i had laying around, ive sold stuff before to others no problem, and because i turn down one guy who lowballs me on something, i get my thread deleted, and I get banned? What the fuck - Im an easy going guy and everything. I sold some other stuff to other members for dirt cheap delivered, no negetive rep, nothing.

im not a mod, but i'll take a guess for you...

1) You had no prices listed for any of your stuff

2) You know you had no prices for any of your stuff and said something along the lines of "Since I don't want to break market place rules im asking $1000obo for each item"

3) You get an offer of $7 on a used game thats a few years old and you say something along the lines of don't low ball me, double it and add a buck and we can talk...

4) When someone tells you not to bitch about low ballers since your not listing prices you tell him to fuck off... I wouldnt be telling people who have been here for a couple years to "fuck off" when you've made about 3 posts ever and are just here to sell shit..

You didnt seem very "easy going" to me... If I had a ban button I would have done the same.

1000 obo? lets be realistic here, did you think that we're all in Gr 4? if you dont our rules, go somewhere else. running loopholes is not gonna get you anywhere.

Hah, shouldve known.

Realistic here? How many people here learn without being told anything? PM is a wonderful thing, you lazy fuckin marketplace mod. At least try to help people out who are selling stuff to other beyond members, instead of just blatently delting their thread as well as them. At least some of the mods put in a huge effort to help on here.
So thanks for your ignorance, and sorry to the beyond members who i was holding those items for. :rolleyes:

Where are the good mods like Weapon_R when you need them.

I think the fact that you have been banned at least 4 times before gives you a very short leash.

I personally did not see a problem with your thread but I'm not a mod.

I can't say you're wrong, when i was banned previously, it was generally because a mod was pissing me off and I didnt go down softly.

You did that in 2 threads... not just the latest one.

You are also using another loophole by using an anonymous email provider that isn't on our banned list yet... it will be shortly.

Marketplace rules state to post a price, and I did. 100obo. I dont know what any of that goes for, but im sure buyers in the market do. :thumbsup:

Opinion qualifies for ban? Thanks Isaiah.

Anyways, I found out what I wanted to know, said what I wanted to say - life goes on. I just get frustrated when 90% of the beyond mods do a fantastic job, and then theres the idiots who mindlessly click the ban button without asking "hey bud, you know you cant do that in the marketplace, right?".

that's not obeying the rules, it's basically insulting them.

I don't know many cops that will come up to you if you're busting some guys legs and be like, oh, you know, you really shouldn't be doing that.

Yes, I'm sure they're weeping.

Do you not get what Im saying? I didnt know what to price them, so i give them a price, and say "or best offer". Its a widely used sales technique, the whole "obo" thing. :dunno:

But if he was picking his nose in public he might. Breaking a guys leg is breaking the law, but hey, thanks for the horrid metaphor though.

What is your issue? If you don't like the rules, then GTFO.

The mods aren't lazy, the users are... they don't read the rules. Why should a mod bother telling you something you can read. The rules are clear, you just choose to work around them.

I am sure the mods don't give a rats ass about whether you know how much your shit is worth. If you don't know, post it on ebay and let it go for auction. Beyond isn't an auction site... post a price. Why is that so hard for you to understand?

Like I said about your shitty metaphors, thats like saying that if I ask $35000obo for my car (even if its worth only 32,000), and someone offers me $1000. Must I say yes? hah

Benyl, man, you are a perfectly fine mod, and I dont know if you came across my thead, but I failed to break any marketplace rule. I posted a price w/obo (and if it was too high, just like rage2 says, it'll get faded out and noone will buy anyways), and following the posted price I recieved offers as well. Whats the problem?

Hells no I dont, but when I make a thread, Im the one making the topic, or sale, and have every right not to take seven dollars (delivered) for a videogame.

Before you come to that simple conclusion, keep in mind that it took me a lot longer, and more frustration to repost my perfectly fine thread, re hook buyers, etc, and now have to make another account, than some ignorant moron sipping Sobe clicking the ban button.

why dont you just take a hint and stay the fuck out?

there are other sites like craigslist and usedcalgary where you can post and sell your shit without "people whoring up your threads" and then you wont have to deal with "ignorent morons who sip sobe and click ban buttons"

Look boy, there's no hint. It was a misunderstanding, and here we go again. Im not here solely for selling and buying a few items, I actually use the site. :thumbsup: Seems like your getting more bugged by this thread than me, lol.:rofl:


Besides this is done with. Moving on (said for the second time).

And just to clarify, it wasn't "people" whoring my thread, it was you kid-business.

Thaco has been banned a few time before as well. It's kind of funny when he is one of the marketplace's worst offenders.

wow, thanks for that. Lazy fucking marketplace mod? Sorry to disappoint you but i was too fucking lazy to remove your thread. It was actually one of the non-lazy fucking marketplace mod that did it.

Our forum, our rules. If you dont like it, GTFO

The reason we strictly enforce a price policy is to try and avoid these situations. When users don't post a price, and then get lowballed, we are stuck trying to clean things up and it gets frustrating because this situation can simply be avoided by posting a price.

In the future, put a price on your marketplace goods and follow the rest of the guidelines and your thread will not be deleted. You may have been banned for violating the same rules more than once.
