…it was a perk for enthusiasts...

Enthusiasts… You mean "fucking nutters", right? Or "Belgians", at least...

I'm from a small area–hard to find others into this hobby/lifestyle. Like a few others have stated previously, this decision made me try to make more of an effort to contribute more as well.

Please Note:. Any sales that are posted in the going going gone section trying to bypass the current conditions for access to the buy/sell area will be immediately deleted.

I would like add a suggestion..

With photo the selling of item

a member name and date written..

So they can’t be use by someone else to make a sale again.

[goosehd]

I’ve seen other sites do this as well and think it cuts down on fraud.  Good recommendation @Kasi

I’d say between the pig and oerbier table we’d all know who’s behind it…

How about an exception to the people that have spent a lot of money over the years with iron heart ?

[Matt]

Wow.  They’re so much to unpack with that one. I’m not even sure where to start…  ???

[goosehd]

I’ve seen where other forums charge either a one time or yearly fee for access to the buy/sell areas.  Maybe that’s an option…

So, making 20 posts over the years and being part of the community is not really asking a lot…...

But I do get it, some people don't feel comfortable posting, then the quid pro quo is the marketplace does not open up for them....

There’s no way to implement that on this software. Even if there was, we wouldn’t, because this isn’t about rewarding or penalising anyone. It’s about preventing an increasing issue with spam/scams.

[Kasi]

I think you will toughen up more as you along

Otherwise it will weaken the forum system.

Plus there so many brain dead can’t read the rules..

For example Facebook clearly says no selling on Iron Heart group.

Still people breaking the rules..

You fuck with system you bring on your self.

Stay jail free…

How hard is that.

Thank you; would like to contribute more to forum. It is something I check delay. Have lots of great photos of iron gear that I love and is well worn. Just seems to be something I haven’t found the ability to put into my habit of routine. I do agree that this could make for a stronger Forum

I am new.  Before the change, I sold 1 shirt and bought a bunch. I don't think 20 post requirements is not too much.  It is free for everyone, so I am very happy to be here and will visit IH very often.

Date time stamps with user name and items for sale will help eliminate frauds.  Buyers should exercise this even the forum does not require it.

Thank you

I personally think this is a great idea and support the tagging name with username and date to cut down on the amount of spam. I was finding the selling thread to be unwieldy as it was and way disproportionate in terms of people wanting to buy versus people trying to sell.
