Hi all,
I joined the forum to read/learn about a Rolex [Rolex Gents President Day-Date 18kt Gold Watch 18038] my Uncle left me in his will... Now that I have read and authenticated it from the info I learned here... I'd like to post for sale... but I have make 16 posts or something first???? This policy just forces people to make unnecessary posts doesnt it? I mean I'm not some scammer or trying to advertise my commercial business. your thoughts? |

Well...
![]() It's part of the forum rules so I think joining means you agree to abide by them. IIRC, the idea of the policy is you would add something to the community before using it for personal gain (selling). Seems like you've already gained something you wanted by learning about the DD - right?

The forum policies protect the forum members.

You also need to a member for a minimum of 16 days.........not just have 16 posts.
It is a requirement of every member of this forum, and it isn't a big hurdle to undertake. Try becoming a part of the community first.

After this, if I were you, I wouldn't even bother posting your watch for sale... You'll be wasting your time.

OK Mosco.... yes i must be a bad seller because i just want a fair price for the watch that others enjoy... but i simply do not. I believe most would appreciate my honesty.

Has nothing to do with you being a 'bad seller'. This is a community, not a free-for-all. If you come in here with a chip on your shoulder (as you have), few will choose to deal with you. It's a fact. One of your first posts was bitching about the rules - if you don't like them, there are always other venues.

You come in and attempt to undermine the forum rules - and then expect to continue with this type of attitude....time for you to go elsewhere with your watch. As has been said above "this is a community and not a free for all."

![]() ![]() ![]() TRf isn't a shopping service.. TRF is a discussion forum for watch enthusiasts and not here for the express purpose of dumping goods... perhaps that point was missed in your intense "research".. Good luck whith your venture..... elsewhere ... ![]()

The post policy is a small price to pay for the company you get here. One forum I belong to requires 100 posts to post in the classifieds.

So it appears the 16/16 rule was a little to much for the OP to bear!?!?!

Same Ahole. Both IP locations within hundreds of years of each other. You'd think that he was being ironic and amusing, what with a HUGE 16 posts to make and all. .... but no, there are people like this everywhere unfortunately. ![]()
