KISS theory needs to be applied.... IMO anyway
out of all of the members here on pcs i wonder how many people have read T&C's all the way through! i would hesitantly guess less than 25% not including committee and moderators

There are instances where a reply is of public benefit and should stay...so we can't even lock all the posts instantly to prevent replies.

If your ad goes down or off the 1st page, it will still be seen, so there's no need to bump it up within the 4 day bump rule.
This is totally unfair to others who have advertised in that section and are doing the right thing.
When you have something to offer a buyer/seller, PM them without replying and bumping that thread.
There are times when a reply in a wtb thread is absolutely necessary, and we accept that.
Here are the Classified T&C's. Please read them
RULES FOR THE USE OF OUR FREE CLASSIFIEDS
NOTE: Everyone please ensure you have your location added into your profile before listing items for sale or wanted to buy.
1. The use of the general classifieds for users wishing to sell aquarium related goods is limited to the undermentioned categories:
Fish bred or kept by seller
Second-hand dry goods
Products made by a PCS Club Member
The occasional buying and on-selling of fish by PCS Club Members to recover some of the costs
2. Please preface all new topic posts with one of either WTB: (Wanted to buy) or FS: (For sale) or EOI: (Expressions of interest) or FREE: (self explanatory, I hope).
Prices are mandatory on all for sale or expression of interest posts
PCS Sponsors excepted.
3. Please don't bump posts - ie. reply in your own thread, unless 4 days or more have passed since your last bump or original post. Bumping can include adding fish or items, changing the price as well as adding statements like "you have pm", "pm sent", "email sent", "nice fish" etc. If sellers want to add fish or items or change the price etc, you have to edit your original post if you want to do this within 4 days.
The only exemption to the bumping rule - if 4 days or more have passed since the last bump, then you are allowed to bump your advert back to the top.
4. The Classifieds is for the sale of livestock or goods by individuals and sponsors. Commercial listings by non-sponsor businesses or entities, or websites is not permitted unless prior authorisation has been obtained from the Committee.
5. The PCS does not condone the buying and selling of hybrids, dye injected fish and noxious fish. Therefore any classified that contradicts this policy will be deleted without warning.
6. The Classifieds are to be used for the advertisement of fish and fish related items only. If you have something which is not fish related for sale please use "Off the Wall" - Club Members of the PCS only.
6a. Club Members of the PCS may advertise goods for sale and/or their own business on a one-off basis, ie, no repeated postings of the same item or business. Offending posts will be deleted without notice.
7. Please do not hijack other peoples advertisements. This means adding your own "for sales" to other people's Classifieds. It is considered bad form and such posts will be removed.
8. The following should be in every ad posted in the classifieds:
Livestock
- Name
- Size
- Number (if more than one)
- Sex (if known, otherwise state "sex unknown")
- Price or a ballpark figure
- Photos (if you don't have photos, this must be stated)
- Brand (if applicable)
- Age
- Description, incl condition of the item
- Price or ballpark figure
- Photos (if you don't have photos, this must be stated)
Topics that breach these guidelines will be edited and or deleted without warning. Continued abuse will result in banning.
The PCS has a three strike policy in regards to breaking the T & C:
1. You will receive a written warning
2. You will receive a two week ban
3. You will be permanently banned
The Committee may ban a user without warning if his or her actions are deemed beyond reproach.
Records (strikes) of warnings and temp bans will be reset after 12months of good behaviour.
PLEASE ENJOY THE FORUMS !

Have you tried placing this sticky at the bottom of the PINNED list so it sits directly above the latest classifieds?

The specific threads have had multiple bumps from the thread starter, so I imagine this is the reason for closing the thread? Does multiple bumps (following the 4day rule) constitute closing threads?
