Does anyone know why the for sale thread was locked in our regional forum in the for sale section?

LOCKED FS THREAD

 

I had no idea but I am curious to know myself. Interesting...

 

Pretty easy to answer. They want you to pay in order to post FS threads.

 

There have been changes as of March 1st & your C.O.'s have yet to acknowledge them so it was locked.

 

Ahh makes sense. That means all of the other regional forums similar to this one will be locked as well. It is what it is.

 

This. Site wide rules have been adopted now - guests cannot sell except if it is their own s2k - just like the main fs forum.

 

Oh ok! Thanks for the clarification! I guess times are tough for everybody...

 

this site is a business, its sole purpose is to generate cash.

 

This is somewhat disappointing, restricting the ability for non-members to sell items diminishes the amount of items on sale to members. I think if you allowed non-members to sell items, but only allowed them to see their own posts in the For Sale area, this would still give S2Ki members a large amount of items to purchase, and give those interested in buying an incentive to buy a membership (access to large amounts of items for your car in your region). I do comprehend the need to have perks and incentives for membership, but reducing the amount of items that can be listed in my regional for sale forum is a detraction from membership in my opinion.

 

This is nothing new. S2ki turned to a business oriented site years ago. There use to be a time when anybody could post group buys, that was when this site was really geared towards the enthusiast.

It is a business, they want your monies.
