Only other advice I could offer is, spend a few years on the forum, learn it's ins and outs, see the history of scammers/ect, learn who's trust worthy and who's not, get a feel for how our forum's procedures are, then after enough wisdom has been gained on how the largest 350z forum in the world operates place an application for a Staff position. Once your application has been reviewed and you have been selected to be a Staff member, you sir can be included on any revisions of our Classified section rules and how they serve to protect the best interest of our members...

your missing my point, how would i be scamming to post a "want ad" that doesn't make sense, im looking for a car not selling a car. but obviously i wont win this fight ( always gonna be the masses against a 1 new person) it seems or looks like it seems its about $$ anyways, no biggy i just thought it was a cool site, but i will leave it at that.

wow to win your guys trust for posting a "WANT AD" all i have to do is pay $20 lol that is silly. ( according to the guy above couple posts)

nice glamouring it up "largest 350z forum" largest but not the most friendly im finding out...i usually don't get wrapped up in forums anyways, i just happen to be in the market for a car and thought one of the options was to join forums not just this one.

either way obviously im abiding by the rules so no reason for anyone to attack me, i was already judged as a scammer

anyways i guess this turned into a want ad, i already received PM for cars so i cant complain at this point,

thanks and have a good one guys.

Apparently you're not familiar with the idea of sellers being scammed by buyers on eBay. It has nothing to do with spam. The restrictions are in place to protect sellers and buyers here from unknowns such as yourself.

This forum doesn't exist for the sole purpose of supporting classifieds, that's only a sideline activity. So to answer your implied question - no, we don't want people to sign up just for the purpose of selling or buying something.

oh come on, really im not buying a car online having it shipped. im looking for a car within distance to look at, the old fashion way of buying cars. i think its paranoia really, so in turn implementing these rules your taking responsibility of the transaction and thats a bad thing for you, most sites have agreements you accept that gives the operation of the forum no responsibility. but geesus this is paranoia for someone just looking to post a want ad to buy a car. but whatever it still looks like a way to get people to pay up because what your saying is you have to pay to be a scammer if you really wanted to stop it you wouldnt let anyone pay to get around a 90 day period, you would implement a post count or a timeframe in general and not accept payment to "prevent" a scammer, like i said silly. all a scammer has to do is pay a fee and off he goes lol. in my case since im just a average joe user i would feel scammed paying $20 to post a want ad, anyways i see the light at the tunnel,

no one needs to comment anymore please just lock the thread. its a deadhorse now. the common sense gets over balanced by supporting with $
