Thats your 3rd reply to a thread you feel is unimportant. If you truly felt that this thread doesnt belong here, you would have stated so, and then ignored it like a man. But much like my 3 year old, you keep harping on it. In fact, the thread is so good that I actually received a private message thanking me for posting this info! True story.

That's great advice Chicago! I'm only confused as to why you don't follow it...

Politely reminding an individual that 4 bumps per day is inconsiderate is NOT "interference". I think that Leon would agree with this completely! Interference is an act of making disparaging remarks about price, quality, or past sales prices of a card offered. Its a shame that I needed to point out the difference to you. I have always taken you to be one of the more intelligent members on this site.

My cards are in a safety deposit box at a bank. I hope their deadbolts are secure.

My post about the loss of prairie dog habitat in the northern plains states should be appearing in the BST momentarily.

I guess I just read this wrong...to my untrained eye it just seemed like someone being a....what's the term you used once "Jagoff"?

I'm really slow sometimes I hope you understand.

I'm very sorry I let you down.

Actually, scientist, that is not correct at all. Any post that has nothing to do with buying or selling in a BST thread is interference. You aren't a moderator. Let them do their job and butt out. I was one of the few that felt you deserved a second or third chance, even after you "bull in china shop"ped your way into this forum. You obviously don't seem to be picking up any of the hints everyone is dropping in your lap...

I am just waiting for him to state that the good locks cannot be found for less than $8.00 and he will be putting an offer for any and all locks at $5.00...

Keep bumping the BST posting under the guise of it being perfectly fine. It isnt. You know it, I know it, and so does everyone else. To bump a thread 4 times in a day just because a card in your original post sold is abuse. A simple "edit" to the original post works just fine. But in light of your recent financial loss, you are SO hard up to generate some cash that you have resorted to this shameful tactic. You claim that bumping a BST listing once per 24 hours is "far worse" than what you are doing? You cannot be serious! I may be new to collecting vintage cards, but im not new to forum ettiquette. Bumping a BST ad once every 24 hours is very standard and acceptable. Bumping it 3-4 times a day because a card has sold is a desperate attempt to raise cash!

No, it most certainly is not, at least on this board.

Do yourself a favor this time and don't try to futilely argue the point.

Rob beat me to it by about 20 minutes. No, bumping a BST ad every 24 hours is not at all standard and acceptable on this forum. The "forum etiquette" here is more like a week. If you'd bothered to look around and read and understand this forum before you jumped in and started flapping jaw, you'd know that.

There are Private Message functions on this forum. If you have a problem that he bumped his thread and you want to tell him you don't appreciate it, better to tell him in PM or notify a moderator.

all Chicago was doing was making people aware of a potential problem and security issue. He shouldn't be given a hard time for that regardless of how you feel about him or what else he has done. He meant no harm, just provided information.


If you knew about this potential risk beforehand, then skip to the next thread.

I am personally glad he posted this because i had never heard of it before.

How many of you have ever heard of FLEXISPY? It is a security risk to your cell phone.

thanks Chicago.

thanks for bringing this to my attention Chicago206. I had heard about this technique in high school and had totally forgotten about it. Getting my safe from my Dad's house this weekend so I can store my best cards in it.

I disagree. A, he has a history. But B, the world is FILLED with useful information about life -- none of which should be posted on here unless it has a direct relationship to card collecting. What's next, a study on how glass windows can be broken so people can enter homes to steal baseball cards?
