Hi, You might want to consider putting an email address on your profile in case anyone wants to get in touch outside of the forum. Fingers crossed something comes of the post.

Just a headsup to say we’ve had to delete you ad as it was broken, also you seemed to keep repeating the ad.

Hi. For future reference, this advert here is fine as the eBay auction you refer to has less than 12 hours to run. However, just so we’re clear, saying “check my eBay listing” and posting the item number instead of linking directly to the listing…

Thanks for your email but we don’t normally delete posts unless there is good reason. As you’ve just posted that the items are withdrawn from sale then we would have thought that would be sufficient. Thanks.

We’re a little confused with your thread. Do you physically have the two bikes in your possession? You’ve advertised them in Classifieds but it appears from your post that they have been ordered. Can you please clarify this as your ad is potentially misleading. Thanks.

Thanks for your e-mail and we’ll take a look anyway.

We’re concerned having read your post about your Classifieds sale. Although we don’t get involved in Classifieds disputes, it would be helpful for us to know the name of the other person involved. We obviously hope that it does get sorted out. Thanks.

Thanks for your e-mail, is it this thread that you’re referring to? If you can point out exactly what you’d like removed, we’ll take a look at it. Thanks.

Hi Craig, A note on your thread saying it’s sold will be fine. We don’t normally delete old posts without good reason; in this case it’s to your advantage anyway as you’ve got a sales history people can refer back to.

Sorry – pressed the ‘warn’ button too quickly – but you are a new member, it seems and you should perhaps take a look at our rules about advertising?

Your advertisement in our free classified forum was removed as per the very clear and unambiguous classified rules which can be found at http://singletrackworld.com/classified-rules/ We would have happily forwarded you the body text of your removed post for your reference if you’d simply asked rather…

Fixed, thanks for the heads-up.

… however, it’s a repost of the same advert within 24 hours which is in breach of the classifieds rules. In view of that, I think the most sensible thing to do is delete your advert and let your mate advertise his own kit.

This appears to be genuine. Community “My friend posted my items up earlier and I thought I’d join and list them myself so you can email/phone me directly.” Their connection history backs up this explanation, so I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt for…

Ignore that. I’ve just found the explanation at Community “My friend posted my items up earlier and I thought I’d join and list them myself so you can email/phone me directly.” I was a bit hasty there, sorry for the inconvenience.

We’re looking into this. Thanks.

Hi, The BBcode you supplied won’t work. I’ve deleted your message, feel free to repost. Hope that’s ok.

“That’s because they’ve completely f***ed it up.” We deleted your post but as the text above is what you wrote, we class that as swear filter avoidance. Please don’t do it in future, thanks.

Thanks for your e-mail and we’ve taken another look. Your items may be ‘buy it now’ but auctions end in 22 days or more so we feel that you’re stretching Classifieds Rules too far. We therefore stand by our decision. You are of course welcome…

Object all you like. I wasn’t rapping knuckles, I was saying ‘stop it.’ Point still stands. – Cougar.

Hi. When you post, you get 15 minutes to delete / edit it, then it’s locked. We can sort it after the event if you let us know. I’ve deleted your thread so you can recreate it; hope that’s what you wanted.

Here’s your original advert. Just rephrase, add a price and start a new topic! “I’m considering sensible offers for the sale of a Whyte 19 ti. Either frame only or probably as a complete bike. Currently bike has Maverick SC32 forks with quick-flip hubs Composite…

Thanks for your email. Whilst we’re not generally at liberty to disclose moderation with respect to other users, please remember that just because you cannot see action taken does not mean there isn’t any. All complaints / reports are taken seriously, and every endeavour is…

Thanks for the info, we’ve reviewed the matter and would concur that your allegation appears to be correct. The “Shepleg” account has been banned permanently. Sorry if this disappoints your expectations.

Hi, Richard. Due to many complaints about JLC comments we had to act. Unfortunately he had been quoted many times through out the thread and replied himself many times before we had the chance to mod the thread. This meant clean the thread up would…

Hi, I’ve gone back through your posts and undeleted what we can. Regards.

Hi, Thanks for your email. Your account is now active again. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Hi, The issue you may have encountered with trying to activate your subscription is due to the fact you have removed your email address from your profile. The system needs you to have a valid email address registered. If you put your email address back…

Hi. We’ve reviewed your recent ban following your posting history on the forum. The forum rules state “No Trade or business advertising – except bona fide retailers may respond to genuine enquiries from potential customers.” It was viewed that by posting prices unsolicited you’re effectively…

Thanks for your email. If I remember correctly, the phrase in question was “little feckers”, post now edited. I know this sounds petty as it’s not really a swear word per sé; IIRC there was an issue a while back where it was used to…

Hi Marcus, we’ve deleted the thread because it contains your email. It may be worth contacting the member explaining the situation. Thanks.

Apologies I miss read your title and did not see the price, post now undeleted. Ta.

Hi Andy, You can edit your profile by clicking on your name at the very top right of the forum pages. From there, your display email is under “Profile” and your account email is under “Settings.” (Or at least, it is for me anyway.)

Hi, Thanks for your email. Sorry for any alarm caused by the ban length, that’s just an arbitrary figure. The reference to “four” sets of forks included the two sets you sold last year and the year before. Hopefully you can understand why buying and…

Thank you for your message we don’t always see posts so if you feel someone is being rude then please report the post in question so we can investigate. Cheers.

Well spotted, sir. There’s another identical sale a year prior to yours too. We’ve posed the question to him. Thanks.

To answer your query. No it’s not just we’ve warned lots of people about this and the rule was created due to the amount that people were selling. The odd one may get through as we don’t have time to search for them or monitor…

Thanks for your e-mail. Original post was deleted due to ad being linked to another website which is against Classifieds Rules.

We’ve taken another look at your ad and decided it doesn’t in fact break our new rule re links to other sites. Please accept our apologies and we’l reinstate your ad for you. Thanks.

Thanks for your e-mail and understand what you’re saying but your ad is effectively advertising pinkbike. It’s easy to post up pics on the Forum using Flickr etc. Thanks.

Thanks for your e-mail. We’ve seen this particular bike advertised elsewhere as a demo bike so it obviously isn’t your own personal bike. Classifieds are not for trade users.

I’m deleting your post as it references a post that has now been deleted for the issues you raised. Hope that makes sense

We’ve received your e-mail and in view of the fact that you’ve advertised 4 bikes for sale today then we struggle to believe that the 4th one was your own personal bike. Hope you can see it from our perspective. Thanks.

Oops ignore that last message I misread your post.

Call Viadex, ask for Melanie. She’ll sort you a decent price for proper kit, and won’t bullshit you. Tell her Alan at Azzurri sent you.

Topic deleted as requested.

Hi, Thanks for your email. It wasn’t clear from your post whether your comments were directed towards the OP or subsequent posters, hence the complaint. In light of this, we’ll leave the comments deleted to avoid further confusion, but please disregard the earlier warning. Sorry…

FYI, we’ve had a response back from “filtertips” regarding the seemingly abusive message he posted. He’s explained that he was responding to the OP, they’re apparently old friends and he was teasing a mate rather than making an unprovoked attack on you. Just thought you’d…

Thanks again for reporting him, we really don’t want traders like him using the Classifieds.

Please ignore last message I misread the username above your posts. Your posts are now back.
