It's interactions like these that sometimes make me question the sustainability of the human race. Also it's interactions like these that make me question if self-employed WFH is really better than 11 hours in a cubicle and 2 hours in traffic.
Since you're asking for pedantry, here it is:
All my items are way too much to list here nor do I intend or expect to. A spare ps4 controller or years old discontinued graphic card or pair of Airpods with one side dead for which I saw requirement of others, are surely not all my items as you've made up a picture on your head.
In that context, "all" does not mean everything you've ever owned — it means everything you've wanted to offload here, you went through the WTB section, instead of making a FS thread.
There are nearly 100 times more expensive items than those I use and have sold.
Congratulations, no one cares.
0 trader rating = everyone starts from somewhere.
Excellent, you've grasped the basics. Participate more in the general areas until you lose the Market Restricted tag.
Does it warrant restriction?
If you're ignoring the rules and warnings, then yes, you've earned it.
If you still under the false assumption that I've tried to "bypass" something, do say instead of silently assuming further, I can post live video timestamps of every single item in WTS, I've commented for in WTB threads.
There's no appeal here, you've been judged. It's too late to go back. You had a warning, you ignored it.
one of the mods deleted it citing "make seperate sale thread" which seemed impractical to me
See that there? That was the warning you ignored. You were told what to do, you ignored it. Now, you're Market Restricted. A direct result of the consequences of your actions. This didn't happen out of nowhere.
as everyone else comments on WTB threads for proper transparency
Irrelevant. You received a direct instruction from a mod on what to do, based on what you in particular were doing. That overrides whatever the general rules are.
I think it's rather a case of mods making something in their head instead of enforcing any rule.
only @mods can provide their justified reasoning behind it.
They can restrict/ban without giving their reasoning like they've done now.
instead of making impractical assumption on others?
false assumptions and unjustified actions
He falsely believes I've tried to circumvent classifieds protocols
why not interact with the said member first to let them know before revoking them altogether?
And if there's a valid existence of such baseless maths to consider "being part of the community" shouldn't be at least conveyed first at the very least if it's completely absent under rules?
There were more excerpts to quote but your whining and complaining has become tiresome to read. Anyway:
This isn't a free-for-all open forum. Enforcement of rules is on the discretion of the mods/admins. It's closer to a benevolent dictatorship than a democracy. I say benevolent since most members (like myself) end up benefiting far more than what they contribute.
what's stopping him to ask and verify timestamps?
Lack of "Leveling up/ raking points /collecting trophies" were your false assumptions on why I was restricted to begin with.
If you had the participation in the forum that allowed you access to the Marketplace, and you established yourself as someone trustworthy in the marketplace, the WTB section would've been available to you. As it stands, you've averaged less than 2 posts a month for 3.5 years which shows you've had no interest in contributing to the forum collective. There is no reason why anyone would be able to trust you, regardless if you provided timestamps or not.
do you guys really think classifieds in here have some diamonds & gold
Certain parts of the internet do believe that, which is why the marketplace has such a high barrier to entry.
By the way I see repeated use of "OLX" in a derogatory way in this forum
It's important to understand that the marketplace is secondary to forum participation, so if that's what you want, then OLX is better suited for your interests.
Maybe re-read that sentence a few times until you actually understand what it means: access to the marketplace is a privilege for contributing members to offload unwanted items.
If you understood that, now ask yourself this: how do you have so few points after three and half years of being here?
Regardless, I'll be leaving this forum for good
No, stick around, I want to see how much someone can complain before they end up banned.
