Lately, I've see so many members thread crapping sale thread and most of the time the people doing it have less than 10 posts, and have been around for a few weeks.

Where old timers have the decency not to say anything, knowing that we've got a very good Mod and Admin team perfectly able to take care of us, but some noobs seem to know they know much better.

The other day I was lurking on another forum and had to defend RWI, because some guy had his sale thread crapped in here and was very surprised that something like this was happening. Conclusion this guys was saying he would not put anything back on sale here.
We're talking of a guy who's been around the rep foras for over 5 years, the type of guy who always donate to the forum where he sells a watch.
If he was alone, it would not be a problem but I hear and see more and more people who are just afraid of putting anything up for sale at RWI and rather go to other forum to do their sale business. This is sad. And our forum need donation to live long.

So I'll ask it nicely, please stop.

I've been scared myself sometimes so I know what you are talking about. In the future, I will start my sales posts with a polite request to either buy it, or shut up.

My new warning is as follows:

If this is grossly unfair, please have the Profit Police point me to the Value-added Services Committee Chair of the Replica House of Justice so that I may view the Official Charter of Replica Buyer's Rights and Seller's Standards, and let me know where I need to go to sign and notarize the Certified Replica Modifications Acceptable Pricing Standards Affidavit and adjust my pricing so that I am in no danger of violating the rigorous guidelines set by the Association of Replica Professionals of America "Fair Pricing Matrix" and any federal or state licensing organizations or agencies omitted by error.

It's not good for members to post negative comments on other members sales threads... I saw one this week that the guy, a new member, went so far as to call a long standing member deceptive simply because he didnt understand that some watches are sold with a optional sapphire crystal upgrade with the extra charge added to the cost of the watch. The op was very gracious about it whereas I would've been rude! I believe the rules should be amended that negative comments or questions aside of those posted by a moderator should be pm'd and afford the op a chance to respond privately and then if there's not a satisfactory response given a moderator should be pm'd to review the remarks and the decision be left to the moderator to call out a sales thread if the moderator and only the moderator deems it necessary. Thats just my thoughts for what it's worth..

Easy fix, just set the sales area up so that only the OP can add comments.

which one is it vampires aliens or witches dissolve in water?

A woman (we'll exclude men because they are technically warlocks or magi) will either FLOAT or SINK, not dissolve, depending on her functional grasp of witchcraft (and, to a lesser extent, frequency of use). We should also be careful that her lungs are fully deflated and that we have detected her BMI before making any assumptions.

Now we know from Archimedes that if the weight of the water displaced is less than the weight of a given woman, the woman will sink. But a witch, ceteris paribus, will float.

Assuming gravitons exist, the floating witch violates laws of graviton emission and absorption and, at an atomic level, standard electrostatic repulsion.

Due to the bizarre anomalies of witch buoyancy dynamics, we can only truly perform this test if we have a receptacle shape that provides enough water to enable floatation and water pressure resistance suitable for the experiment.

For instance, if you throw a witch in the ocean, the trillions of gallons of water pushing back upon the area upon which the witch rests is sufficient to make an accurate judgement about the likelihood that an accused woman dabbles in the dark arts. An outdoor swimming pool, however, would likely burst due to a lack of depth and inverse pressure as well as the the erratic and unpredictable effects of witchery; a containment failure would nullify the results of the experiment and possibly place us in the spell range of a soaked and angry witch. It is always better to avoid close proximity due to potential witch attacks and, more importantly, the perils of parallax.

With the Pinocchio example above, however, there is not enough water available below the puppet for displacement.

Volume is not the issue for witch tests or wooden puppet boys, but, conversely, water pressure beneath the witch or puppet and the corresponding level of immersion.

Therefore, the volume of water surrounding the witch is not a critical variable; what is relevant is the pressure of the water beneath the witch, which is solely dependent on the depth of the water.

I can't help you with the vampires.

I'm adding this to the disclaimer, watch me!!


Thanks for starting the thread OP. one noob thread craps and 10 noobs pm with stuff like " what's the watch actually worth ? " as if I'm scamming someone for 20 f*king dollars and with these 20 dollars I'm going to make a wise investment, retire early, make millions, live happily ever after. Wtf!

Preciate it Rusk, I've had a lot of comments about that avatar...but that awful thing really was the coolest Mardi Gras mask I've ever had! It's just hard for me to remember that the rest of the world doesn't celebrate Mardi Gras, can you believe our schools actually close down for it here? Wild!!!
