Default New members....buy and sell

Funny how some new folks who want into the buy and sell spam threads to hit 20-30 more posts as fast as they can to sell something....I assume that's what "raiderfan" is trying to accomplish

An introduction plus meaningful contributions goes a long way

Just sayin....

Unfortunately scammers will always find a way to get what they want. More laws don't make for less criminals…..

When I need to get rid of an ad I just report it and ask them to delete it, then ol Pixel doesn't have to sort through to find the 'marked' ones
