Wow, just wow. Being a MOD on Marsh, I have some opionions.

We require the sellers location to be listed like most of yall already have(next to your name). The only time we don't make that requirement is if you are basically nowhere near Houston(dallas area, some of you Maast folks, etc). Also, if we remind you and you post it in the thread we are happy. With in the thread we will post a basic snip it of the forum rule, then pm the person with more reasoning.

As a group, we wont harp on the issue in the thread as eventually happened here. We will discuss it in our own little Mod forum. Luckly we have MODS along with the BOD. In the thread, the BOD should of cut out the posts that weren't relevant to the topic, especially after he eventually posted his location. I know it takes up space and bandwidth, but let the guy attempt to sell his stuff, think how many members can benefit and you might get some new members. I was just a guest on Marsh for just over a year until I bought my tank(from a for sell thread), then joined. It was a misunderstanding.

Here is were I have a problem with being t onit picky.

here is the rules about location

Location: Post your location in the body of the thread. Members need to post their location in any thread started in the Trade & Selling forums. The location in your signature/profile does not count.

Here is Seans last post when he locked.

I am locking this thread, as per the forum rules, you never posted your location in the body of your first post. In addition, disrespectful comments towards other members will not be tolerated.

Now according to the rules he did ,eventually, conform to them by posting his location in the body of the thread. Nowhere does it say that it HAS to be in the first post. So if you locked the thread for that reason, then you are in the wrong. Now if you wanted to stop the back and forth stuff, why didn't a BOD edit it, or remove posts that weren't relivant to the topic.

It just seems that there are too many chiefs(BODS). This should of been handled in a conserted way.

Personally there are somethings that I seen around here(not just this) but in general, I probably won't join MAAST unless I move to San Antonio. I just don't see any love for us Corpus people being thrown around. I have meet some of you in Port A and like those that I have meet.
