no more post counts on the sales sections

[caravaggio]

the onlything is sometimes well meaning members chime in on a sales thread to ask good questions that ask for straight answers on something about the sale or the watch and I have seen sellers being found out as not so honest or needing help in accurately describing their reps. I think those kinds of posts do contribute to the well being and safe haven atmosphere of the forum and therefore should count in the total post count.

I am guessing that such well meaning members probably don't care if their post count jumps by 1. JMHO

Good idea I think bearing in mind they only need to pay a one off $25 to get that threshold to 100 posts
Personally I think the owners are too easy with the non VIP's that have been here selling for a couple of years.
I think it should be VIP only that can post sales threads

i agree with you, if the forum is being used as a trading board to offload something you don't want, a one time donation is very little, and quite reasonable to ask.

good point, but most of the people making those comments are long time active members who won't miss the +1 to their post count
