I think you are fairly new to our forum. You look to be the seller of this fine photo which is a very nice one....but this advertising for your item goes in our Buy/Sell/Trade section in the "auctions" category. In the future please make sure you put these kind of things there and not here.....Nothing personal...it keeps things more clean and tidy and is part of our rules.....regards

Will do....

Thought sticking it in the memorabilia forum was the right spot for it...

This is the forum to talk about the memorabilia....and we have the Buy/Sell/Trade places to ..well...buy, sell, and trade.....Please know that on any given day there are probably more buying/selling/trading threads than informational ones....If they were all in one place together it would be very disorganized......that's also why we say, at the top of this forum and the main forum....to read the Forum Rules first....however, we understand that almost no one does that....best regards

I've been here going on 4 years and have never read the forum rules.

No biggie....I was only pointing it out for others that might be looking and listening. We are very gentle on newbies....Always the friendly forum here on Net54 (after a few bad apples were thrown out) UNLESS you have bad business practices. For instance, I doubt Broadway Rick feels right at home on Net54 about now......

Dan- don't worry...I am not sure I have read the rules since I wrote them....but they are there for anyone that cares to read 'em. And they are the scapegoat we use to inform folks that don't know....warm regards

Given the limited traffic on here, I'm not sure why people can't post for sales or wants. We had this discussion when the memorabilia forum started, and no one got too fussed about it. I appreciate that this may be different from the main board where the traffic needs direction, but here I think we're happy whenever someone new posts, for whatever reason. There may be some merit in having the same rules for all forums, but I don't know if overcomes the benefit of encouraging postings of all sorts to the memorabilia side.

And in any event, many posts are thinly disguised posts for wants or solicitations for sales. (BTW always buying baseball books )

I think we did talk about this and YA'LL were the ones that wanted it to stay in the BST pages....heck, it's your forum and I agree with the amount of traffic it's not a bad thing to have them here......

Why don't you start a thread and take a vote. Doesn't matter to me but I think it should be consistent. Should we take down the memorabilia category on the BST?....regards

I'm with Max, and personally would vote that these "Buy and Sell" posts are OK (even welcomed) for the Memorabilia side.

For whatever reason, there do seem to be lots fewer posts on this side, and this might even stimulate some nice discussion. I spend probably 85% of my time on this side of the Board, and this would not bother me at all.

Would actually like to see this put to a vote, as I am curious to see what others think. As long as it did not get out of hand, and was limited to somewhat quality pieces (ie. no modern "junk"), I wouldn't see the harm.

The policy could always revert back, if the forum became too corrupted. Just my 2 cents...

I would vote to allow BST ads on this forum, but I agree it should be kept to items pre-1960.

I'm fine with it as long as it doesn't become BST dump day. I would also like to see pictures with whatever is being sold if possible.
