Re: 'Where can I buy a xxxx?' threads

Why is it stupid? The rules clearly state no advertising. If it was allowed then people could simply spam the forums with advertisements for their shop, internet dating site, whatever, we'd have peoples' sigs which would be banners for their business and suchlike. I can see exactly where their coming from, and I think that rule stands on most, if not all the forums I'm on, unless you're an authorised trader. And you can't really compare advertising a business to someone selling their gun on this very forum

90% of the time the answer would be in direct conflict with forum rules.

Is that because Z1 don't stock 90% of airsoft 'stuff'?

Sorry (couldn't resist) :D :p

On a more constructive note; I've noticed that things on this forum are picked up by Google within hours, if not much sooner. What that means is that Z1 really ought to be posting its own sales threads here. Forum threads are quite often at or near the top in UK searches so they're missing a massive trick by not capitalising on this.

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) for the win!

I dont think its the mods fault, theyre just enforcing the laws set down by the retailer who set up this site.

The fact that zeroone seems hell bent on pretending that no other retailers exist on its forum despite offering distinctly average customer service, poor stock and laughable repair services is neither here nor there.
