And I had the popcorn ready.....

I had the Wild Turkey 101 ready, and a bottle ready to ship to Lizards.

If the goal is to ensure chaos then the true answer would be adding the Bacardi 151 for the coveted 252's...

I'm not sure why this needs a vote.  Just copy/remove your uncle's name/paste.   

Pretty sure doing that would summon the dramalama of doom,Andy.

Was browsing ole Instagram and noticed a couple books we can buy on the boards for 2K more than if you buy on Instagram from the seller, glad to see the community getting a break.

Not to mention violating the exclusive offer rule here.

 I still can't figure out how to quote 2 things, but @thirdgreenham  @porcupine48

Someone asked me to change a title the other day and I found out that you can only edit for the past year, that means the mods can only edit for one year. 

Which means that if a HOS removal vote takes place, it only would take the person off the list for the posts that can be edited.

Just so people know that, so if someone comes back, reforms, saves the world. It's still going to be on those other posts.

I'm not sure that was what you wanted, but be aware if you have a poll and it wins, that's what you'd get.  Doing it that way would probably get more votes, so it might not be the worst thing.

Highlight both posts, and a quote button will appear.

Thing is though, it's a temperamental feature when using a laptop or desktop. Sometimes it works fine for me, sometimes it doesn't.

What is going on with people posting things like, 'I sold that book X years ago for way less than it's going for now! I'm sad about it!!' in other people's sales threads? Is this ok? Am I the only one that it bothers? I get that the market has changed drastically, but why muddle up someone else's sales thread? I've seen it quite a bit lately. This is bad form imo.

[Pitboss]

That's what this thread is for but is rarely used.

What is it with all the current market commentary in sales threads lately? That used to be viewed in very bad taste but in the past 48 hours non buyers have been sharing their thoughts on price run ups, incorrect labels, market correction predictions etc. This used to be heavily frowned upon, did something change?  The complaints that sales have slowed here certainly will hold true if the peanut gallery has to comment on every "hot" book being listed, better to just put on IG or ebay where comments are less common or not at all.

I am not a fan of it either but it seems like a shift has occurred in board culture regarding this type of behavior. A seller always has the right to say up front that such banter is not allowed in the sales thread.

There hasn't been anything reported recently, so I haven't seen it. But if that is what is happening, if it upsets the seller, they SHOULD report it. 
I think some people see it as free bumps, so they don't care..

I guess that's what it comes down to, does it upset the seller? It seems like most sellers these days just accept it as how its done today. Some encourage it.

I do my best not to get into banter in anyone's sales thread. I just don't think it's the place for it. Others obviously feel differently.
