    You do that and I'll put up an Adcom 535 to go with it.

    All we need is a pre and a source and some lucky winner will get a damn nice starter 2channel system.

    I'm serious btw.

    Thanks

    OK, this is so strange - but I do have 25 posts now. Since it was suggested, I will place them on the FS section. I'm dropping them lower in price too since someone said something about it. I was not going to post them there until it it was suggested.

    Please don't attack my sales. If you don't want them no one is pushing them on you. They are simply available which is the ONLY message I wanted to convey from the very beginning.

    How about everyone make a personal commitment to never let this happen again (inform the individual one time and then let the mods handle it. If the individual responds back to justify himself or apologize, let that be the end of it).

    Why are Club Polk members so hostile/unfriendly to new members???: http://www.polkaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?t=71226

    It's obvious that neither is working for you since you were able to read my post.

    If everybody broke the rules, terrorists would be smuggling Polk Monitors through airport security in their underwear .

    You're not a terrorist, are you?

    It looks like the mods are choosing not to enforce the rule because the last thread like this is still active. Looks like the last pair sold because someone was showing a very strong interest in them.

    It doesnt look like anything of the sort to me. As far as im concerned any members caught buying from a poster without 25 posts ought to be banned right along with the orignal poster its just adding to the problem. I know this is a hard **** sort of statement but for any community to function properly all people in the community need to abide by the rules otherwise there is chaos. I know that some cases of selling outside the forum are more blatant than others and that some people feel that if you have been a member for 5 years and its a local pickup then it should be allowed. But if they are allowed to do this than the next guy in a row feels that he can justify why he is selling his item also without 25 posts. Case in point the original poster here feels he's doing us polk lovers a favor and he desperately needs the money before his gf finds out. :rolleyes:

    Regarding moderators if a moderator cant respond to a thread within 24 hours we need more moderators, its really not that tough to do lol. I moderate on another forum, non audio related and I check in before I go to work in the morning, and I check in when I get home in the evening and if I plan on going on a trip I either bring my laptop with me and check in or notify admin of my absence so another mod can keep an eye on the area I moderate while im gone. But there needs to be a flagging system in place for it to to be effective the mods cant possibly scan all areas all the time and there may be im not sure how report this post works, if it gets sent to a mod or to Justin.

    Just my 2 cents

    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D

    I like the way some newb can come around piss on the rules, get the post count up, list in the FM, warnings are left about his actions, and the to top it off a mod comes in and cleans it up for him:confused: This is EFing BS. Nice message to people who come here to just sell. Why not just get rid of the rules all together if some brainless leader is just going to support an AH any way.
    A prime example of being rewarded for breaking the rules, its truly sickening. This is why it continues to happen :rolleyes:

    I don't know if you missed the "tringtang" thing, but ~J~ spanked us for calling out a known bad seller. Way to go CP moderation:rolleyes: Post count needs to be higher, and membership needs to be longer for sales. This is pure BS.

    1: This thread should have disappeared once it was reported.

    2: New members that only come to sell should not be allowed to defend why they broke the rules in a thread like this just to get their post count up.

    3: If any warning was issued, it should have been to the OP for breaking the rules.

    4: Had this been done to begin with, don't you think that it would have gone down differently?

    Why have rules set forth if they are not going to be enforced? Justin? Anybody?

    Come on here folks. Get with it. Seller breaks the rules by posting a FS ad in the wrong forum. Post gets deleted. A Mod reminds new member of the rules. Member now understands rules and at that point he/she can either join in the fun, become a general PIA or move on. Simple, really.

    Shut the **** up Carl. That's not a whine. That's a direct statement.

    Instead of a contructive post #2, the mob piles on, again.

    Classic guys, way to man up and represent Polk.
