Just wanted to say well done
24 February, 2014, 01:53
on the new rule of showing forum name and date in the photos with the the items you sell :D
it's brilliant! Only those without the item would have a problem.
who agrees!?
ps. I apologise if there is already a thread about this, havn't been on in about a year and havnt yet checked!

Re: Just wanted to say well done
Although some people still think it's acceptable to add it electronically, using MS Paint or similar
Edit: And right on cue, 6 pistols posted with electronic name & date...

Re: Just wanted to say well done
Some people are still adding "Pictures on request or via email" not on.
Some experienced, long term members by the way.
There's a scammer operating openly on this forum. Please be aware of who you're dealing with.

It's not even hard to put pics in threads so I don't know why this is a problem for people it helps with sales anyway I don't even bother reading it if there's no pics

To be fair we haven't had many repeat offenders but we do get a LOT of sales without name & date in the pics. It has started to tail off now though.
People still need to be vigilant when it comes to sales though, just because there's a name & date in the pic doesn't guarantee the sale's legit. Also, I've seen a couple of people have sold guns before we've spotted that there's no name & date in the pics so hopefully the buyers have at least asked.

Re: Just wanted to say well done
I find it more funny than irritating: Desperately slow scammers or equally slow members.
If in doubt
always ask for another pic
, this time with the gun next to some random items of your choosing. A genuine seller won't mind. They have the gun afterall...
Anyone can lift a pic from Google images and photoshop a time stamp in there.
The last purchase I made on here I asked the seller to take another with a cup of tea and a drawing of Lisa Ann in a tank.
Ya know... the usual shit.

only problem with things like photobucket is that they have introduced a bandwidth limit. so everytime someone views your [img] linked pic it uses a small amount of bandwidth. now if you have 3 pics in each thread, and 5 threads, all of which a lot of ppl look at you might be hitting your bandwidth limit pretty quick. and when you do hit this limit, all your pic links then show as an error message.
what i do now is to post one picture, with a link to the folder where the pics are, as if you view the pic directly on photobucket (ie following the link) it does not affect your bandwidth limit

Re: Just wanted to say well done
This is great to see, I will hold my hands up that I forgot to do this a few days ago and quite rightly had my post removed. Gives that extra bit of reassurance (hopefully)
Not everyone knows what to though, example below

Don't use photobucket then?
Google's options are far superior as it is, and no bandwidth caps.

Re: Just wanted to say well done
...I was also going to possibly suggest cloud storage. Although is there a bandwidth cap for that too?
Simply upload your file to the internet/ cloud, get the link for it and post it. Can even password protect it so only ZeroIn users can access, for example - for whatever paranoid reason that may be! Hehe.
Please get in touch if you want general help. Please report problematic posts.
Take responsibility for your choices. If you break any rule in life, you should be held accountable.

Re: Just wanted to say well done
I assume this seller was advised that he needs to put his name in the pictures, although still don't believe he has got the hang of what is needed

Perhaps he'd be interested in swapping them for my car?

Re: Just wanted to say well done
Why are sales threads being deleted even when they have username and date in them? The date was Feb 14 as I took them last month. Is that enough to have it removed?
