How about a section for selling and trading?
« on: August 13, 2009, 11:49:05 AM »
Anyone wanting to sell or trade an extra vid card etc gets their post deleted, so why can't we have a section where we are allowed to do that?

Just for the players, no retail, spammers allowed.

And who would monitor/enforce the restrictions?

HTC has their hands full with the game and boards as it is.  No need to make their lives any more miserable.

I think that would be the biggest problem with the idea.
eBay?  Craig's List?  etc.

True, but I was thinking of it as more of a way to help out the community, if other players could use things we no longer need.

Ya know, I don't think that this wish will EVER happen...

I know most of the guys/girls in this game are good ppl, with honorable motivations and intentions...
But there is always ONE, who isn't!!!  And it only takes ONE, to cause no end of Hash n Trash...

Honestly, think of all the ppl, who Game the Game, looking for an advantage..
How would some easygoin guy/girl feel, when they are gamed out of their hard earned cash...
And then have the useless putz BRAGGIN about it!!!   "HaHa SUCKAAAAAAA!!!"   Hmmmmm?

Do ya think HT wants to even hear the wailing over THAT on this BBs
Hell, I'm not responsible for this thing in any way, AND EVEN I DON'T WANNA HEAR ABOUT IT...

Don't get me wrong, I think its a goodhearted and cool idea too..
Unfortunately cool ideas, are not always good!!!

So basically, HTC doesn't want to be involved in any disputes, because people have been cheated etc.

Makes sense.

Good responses.
