Hi Mike,
I notice that you have 2 active sales thread in Everything Else. Market Rule 6.5 allows each member to list one active sales thread in each Market. Would you please kindly combine your threads into 1?

Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
Kit

"6.5. No user may have more than one current thread in each of the three sales-related Market forums (SNK Selling, SNK Wanted, Everything Else). If a user has multiple items for sale (or that they want to buy or trade), they should list them all in one thread. "

What's this micromodding shit?

That's the first time ANYONE has ever said anything to me in 10 years.

Let's worry about other shit, like Jose ripping off Boog or the other scammers.

And from what I hear, I'm not the only one who has had this happen to them.

Kit, you try to enforce the "rules" yet you break them by scanning sales threads and offering games cheaper to people who have already committed to a deal?

You need to back off.

Seconded.

Actually, you could say 1sted, as my Thunderforce STILL hasn't sold.

Cheers, Mike.

even more, as expected he gave neoconverted a retaliative neg feedback. That's was more than a month ago and hasn't been removed yet.

He came to me once after T.A.P. (super mega troll that he is) whined about a small joke I made in his wanted thread. I told him to back off and stop messing with me. Shit like that won't fly in ZDTF let me tell you, it just won't. If kitkit is getting on a power trip we'll take him down on the fly. Better learn how to manage things smoothly as a mod kitkit, stop getting all freaking gung-ho over stupid shit.

Not saying kit is doing a horrible job or anything.

But when I wanted to take over the Market Forum, it was stated that they are self maintained.

Don't make a problem where one doesn't exist.

This is the type of moderation this site sure as shit doesn't need.

I will ignore every stupid infraction that is sent my way.

Sorry kit.

Bigger problems exist.

Track down sonofx51 and get your boy his games and money back.

Members won't put up with this shit.

Before Bobak wrote the Markets Rules, members complain about other members having multiples sales thread at the same time.

Mike, the PM that I sent you is standard to all members. I am sorry that you got offended. I will go ahead and merge your threads.

For Jose (sonfix51), I will take away his selling privilege.

Regarding offering Thunderforce V to Curt, I don't think he had committed to a deal. I admitted that I could have handled the situation better. I should have made a separate selling thread instead of directly PM Curt. If you think I have violated any rule, please make a separate thread for discussion.

What's this micromodding shit?

And I had no idea he scammed boog. That's pretty low.

The only thing in a market mod's duties is to enforce the market rules right? So people are mad that he's enforcing the rules that have been in place for how long? The only people I see here getting on a power trip are those members who think they should be above the rules.

Unless you guys think he's not enforcing them fairly I don't see the problem. If you want a rule changed start a thread about that.

I get that some of those rules are a pain sometimes, but I also remember how many scammers, thread crappers, and just general clutter we had in the market section before the rules.

Regarding this though, well, that's just shitty. I don't know the details but I'd be pissed if I were you too.

Curt and I both live in San Francisco. We just completed a deal 1 week prior to the Thunderforce thread made by wataru330 as I delivered the game to Curt in personal.

Wataru330 made a sales thread offering a Thunderforce V Sega Saturn for $77 shipped. Curt sent a PM to wataru330. I notice that Curt sent a PM, so I PM Curt and see if he is also interested in a Thunderforce V for $37. Curt took my offer and honestly told wataru330 that he got it cheaper. As I mentioned before, I should have made a separate selling thread for the Thunderforce instead of directly PM Curt. It was my mistake for not being "political sensitive" given my Admin status.

I think you are doing a fine job as the Market mod, keep up the good work kitkit.

I did not notice that lspear left a negative feedback for neoconverted. I have never removed any feedback before, but I will learn from the Admin team so that I could remove neoconverted's negative.

While lspear lying to neoconverted about the shipping status is unacceptable, I see lspear's point of view (afraid of being scammed/filed chargeback) as neoconverted is a non-verified paypal user.

even more, as expected he gave neoconverted a retaliative neg feedback. That's was more than a month ago and hasn't been removed yet.

ElecticGrave,
I explained to you why I had to remove your comments. T.A.P. already politely asked you not to make nonconstructive comments, yet you continued to make another one. I already told you that if you think T.A.P. is a troll or have a personal issue against him, take it elsewhere.

I also told you that I never had a problem with you. However, if a member PM me about unwelcome comments in a WANTED thread, I would remove them if I see fit. I don't understand why you think I am on a "Power trip".

He came to me once after T.A.P. (super mega troll that he is) whined about a small joke I made in his wanted thread. I told him to back off and stop messing with me. Shit like that won't fly in ZDTF let me tell you, it just won't. If kitkit is getting on a power trip we'll take him down on the fly.

I have been enforcing Rules 6.5 in Everything Else since becoming a NG admin. Market 6.5 ensures all members get a fair exposure of their sales thread. I remember the old days where member "kai" would bump 5 or more sales thread in Everything Else.

Besides Tonk, I also PM "kai" as he was having multiple open sales thread last night.

This afternoon, Tonk PM me stating that he is offended by my PM and refused to combine the thread. His first post also stated that "That's the first time ANYONE has ever said anything to me in 10 years." Look, I am only politely asking members to combine threads. I never place the blame on any member because some members might not be aware of the rules/don't know how to edit old post etc.

If any member think Market Rule 6.5 is "micormodding" or think it's unnecessary. Please make a separate thread in Suggestion so that members can have further discussion.

Wow, you're by the book.

For the amount of work i do in the Market, it's like I'm the vice president, you don't need to PM me over dumb shit like that.

The Market was fine when the members moderated it - you scan for shit to PM people about.

That's not how this place is run.

I also think you should apologize to Wataru330 - that was pretty scummy of you to do that.

P.S. DewmanSNK is a HUGE FAGGOT.

Tonk, you are not the first and only member that I politely asked to combine the sales thread. PMing you is the only option to make you aware of it.

I don't understand what you meant by " you scan for shit to PM people about."

"That's not how this place is run." What is a better way to run the forum. Does this place need to run by your standard?

Well, a LOT of people like my standard. And I've been unofficially running the market forums for the past 8 or so years.

But you go ahead and earn those stripes.

As long as you're doing a good job... lol.

I made my point.

Mike, I'm surprised to see that you're still seem to be mad about the market mod thing...

Although I probably wouldn't have done it myself (mostly because I'm a lazy fuck, mind you), kit's PM is based on the ng.com rules and therefore is justified. You of all people should be thankful that there's someone who takes -all- aspects of our Marketplace seriously, that includes two threads in one selling forum. Yeah, it's a minor issue but that's not the point IMO, a rule is a rule is a rule.

Sorry man, I like you and all but still think you're trying too hard in this case, and that's not cool in my book.
