<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 645348, member: 112"]Sorry, but not a chance of that happening.

And we could never become involved in them in the future either.</p><p><br /></p><p>Think about it, all the flack I get now because some don't like the way I write. Can you even begin to imagine what would happen if I or any of the other mods started saying yes or no to an auction or an ad ? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry, and I am posting as a member here and nothing else, but I think that would be a terrible idea.

You can count on it. We won't, because we can't. They may want to, but they can't. Even with what we have now it has happened several times that I was asked to intercede in a transaction gone wrong.
