Time stamps

[scootenthusiast28]

This time stamp thing is getting out of hand....there are more locked threads than there are open ones... and all the locked ones have pics, sr is becoming too strict

Its devolving.

It is a turn for the better. Almost every other forum with a marketplace enforces this rule. It proves that you have, and are the owner of the items you are selling. Its a simple rule to follow.

It definently is a good idea... BUT i disagree that almost every other forum makes you use "time stamps". I am and have been a member at dozens of forums for the last 15+ years
I have sold/bought tens of thousands of dollars worth of items on forums and i have never heard of these time stamps.

...but i have also never been a member of a forum where well know members screw eachother like this... So i think its a good idea here.

^Well I kinda assumed that most other forums did. Ive seen them all over SkatePercetion, ForumKorner, DrumForum, etc.

It's a great idea and if you're too lazy to make a time stamp., don't sell things here. Use facebook or something.

It literally costs like 2$ for 100 index cards and next to nothing for a pen/marker. 30 seconds out of your life to make a time stamp isn't much to ask when it comes to making sure people aren't selling parts with old pictures, or parts that aren't theirs, etc.

It's a wonderful idea. And if people can't handle it, thats their problem.

A much better idea than getting rid of the Trading Post or somehow introducing a restriction on new members.

Honestly its a great idea because it stops people from posting pictures of the part when they first got it when in reality they've probably used it for a few months and then the buyer getting something in worse condition then expected.
