Maverick Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Protectionism going on over there, the for sale thread has now been deleted along with the complaint thread being closed.

JonC Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 All over £75! If I was admin on that I would tell the seller to just give the money back it’s not worth the bad feeling. Maverick and Andy135 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I would also ban the seller from ever advertising goods on the forum again, can be done without banning them totally but does take a little time to sort out captin slows old outlaw and Andy135 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He/they may not be able to change Group settings to make the changes you're (quite sensibly) suggesting. Maverick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 So pleased you got your money back Johny. Maybe a bit of Peer pressure on the other site helped after all. Maybe admins gave Norm an exit out, pay up and we'll remove the post type thing. Fair play to them if they did and fair play to the members over there that posted their disdain jonnyswamp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyswamp Posted November 29, 2020 Author Share Posted November 29, 2020 It seems that the main mod had a word, don't know what happened to the seller, but the thread was deleted etc I will post the reel back if I am paid postage or the seller sends a courier to pick it up, I won't be out of pocket Oh and Andy, modman sent this message Oh and by the way, please tell Andy that I am actually the administrator for the site and can change anything and everything.Create forums and everything.I thought his post was amusing, and shows just how little he actually knows.

That is really good news that you were backed by the mod team over there. Also good news that their team has a known admin rather than a faceless remote person administering diktat from afar, far better done locally, maybe. Also shows for whatever reason they have spies or are incognito on here Saintly Fish and jonnyswamp 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzook12 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Good news regards the reel, for whatever reason it got resolved, it was, which is the main thing. Maybe that I commented on it over there he has drawn the link, or maybe he does have "spies" here, who cares...... They had what we have here and blew it, simple as......
