Every time I try and ask these questions and get answers, the post gets closed, FAST.

I have been a user of this site for decades.

as with anything I do, I operate with honesty and integrity.

why are users allowed to break the site rules non stop without penalty ?

i see early bumps all day, spamming, flaming, thread snipes etc

I would be more tolerant to this if it were NEW users of the site, who arent familiar with the rules.

However users with join dates 15 years old who have clearly been around, obviously dont care..

if i spam or "flame" i get instant ban and and a warning, topics get closed, yet my posts get spammed and ppl talk shht and nothing.

i report users who steal my trades directly from my threads and nothing happens.

my friend got a warning for bumping my posts, which nowhere does it say is illegal.... yet people self bump their posts early all friggin day and nothing.

i repost users who clearly dont give a F about the rules, such as early bumping, or identical posts about the same topic minutes apart to try and obtain or sell an item, yet they remain up and active, and i just look like a douchebag for pointing out they are breaking rules and nothing happens.

wth is going on ?

whats with the selective enforcement of the rules ?

looking for honest answers.....

TIA

sounds like a skill issue

ty for keeping the site safe from early bumpers. your work does not go unnoticed.

are you sure this is a honest question?

maybe you need to do some self reflection

what does that even mean in relation to my question ?? XD



im not looking for sarcasm, id like an honest answer.

my question stands:

whats with the selective enforcement of the rules ?

or alternatively, why are there rules if some people get penalized and others not ?



please expand on this ?

what sub reddit do you mod for ?

i honestly dont know

what ?? LOL



thank you for an honest answer!

Damn man, sorry u feel this way.. in my exp the mods here are quick and efficient when it's something of importance.
Little stuff like getting trades jacked n stuff, try to not publicize if you want something just pm. Were relied on to police ourselves on that front also, its gonna happen, stuff like that just does.
Few years back I got scammed pretty bad like 4k for some hrs, and i had a moderator with me for an hour until they got all they needed and a ban was put up immediately, so I can say they do take it serious from my experience.
It's probably just your like.. perception, man on most of it I wouldnt take it too personally.

spending all day narking just to nark on the people u nark to is pretty funny
