Your intention is to sell, your words. Read the sales rules very carefully. Then read them again. Read also all the remaining stickies in the sales section.
Things like your posting streak get noticed very quickly, we're trained to see that and if we don't, there's plenty of members who will notice and give us a shout.

Tbh, I d like to sell a watch. I was lurking here for a long time. And since today is free I thought I could participate more. At this point I kinda enjoy posting, but I ll stop If that annoys anyone.

It is annoying.

But that's not why it's concerning.

What is concerning is that it's an attempt to circumvent the rules. Even if that wasn't your intention (if we'd give you the benefit of the doubt) but it's technically still a rule circumvention.

And folks who circumvent the rules intentionally often have more sinister motives behind it, like scams for example.

If you don't think that's a legitimate concern, it makes you look —in all blunt and frank honesty— rather suspicious.

So I'm pretty sure that after I've shown you this new perspective, you now understand why post-whoring (intentional or unintentional alike, because initially, we can't know which one applies) is problematic.

Wasted time. He wrote me a PM yesterday asking what he had done wrong. I was so stupid and explained everything to him in detail and how he can make it better again. His reaction: none. No thanks, no sorry, silence.

And people in the forum are really surprised when we don't feel like dealing with lazy newbies anymore...

His intention was simply to sell a watch that he has not even had delivered (will be delivered in 2 weeks.. WTF?).

No words.

I hate that, too. No acknowledgement, no thanks. A simple like would suffice, but people can't seem to be bothered. Lazy, ill-mannered.

Guys, you're all amazing.

But trust me, it's better to not give a flying boob about assh***s like this.

They're not worth raising my blood pressure for. I just can't be bothered anymore. 😆

If someone's too dumb to understand a certain and frankly quite simple concept or can't even be bothered to reply with a simple "thank you" after you tried to help them out, I just laugh about how pathetic they are. 🤣

The seiko mod scene is next level 😂😂 you can get super creative, as long as it isn’t a copy of one of the usual suspects
