Question #1: Someone DELETED my IFS/WTB! $#$!#!@#&^!!
Answer:
Most posts are deleted / locked for the following reasons:
1. Clones. Sir ReB has made it clear that "imitation" phones must be named correctly, e.g. CECT A380, and not as iPhone A380, 99% iPhone, or similar,
2. Multiposts. Old similar posts must be deleted prior to posting of newer posts, to conform with the "one-post-per-item/item type/item group" policy.
Note that one post may contain multiple items, but succeeding posts, whether IFS or WTB, may not have the same items. each item (or item type/group) is only advertised only once on only one post.
A "click to see my other items" may be allowed, provided that the names of the "other items" are not displayed.
3. Incorrect posts. These are WTB posts which are actually multiposted IFS posts, posts which are forum threads in themselves, troll / heckling / nonsensical IFS/WTB posts, and the like,
4. Alternick posts. Posts made by the same member using two or more different user accounts at the same time. moderators get to see alternickers' IP addresses, so don't be surprised if they declare shenanigan on supposed alternickers,
5. Piracy-related posts. Come on, this is not a free-for-all site. we are subject to laws, and we don't want TCP to be shut down by a lawsuit from big-name companies because of some member's insistence to promote pirated materials,
6. Last but not least, non-cellphone-related posts.
Question #2: Help! Someone gave me a negative feedback!
Answer
Posting feedbacks is intended for consummated deals where an actual exchange of the item and money has occurred. In short, no consummated deal, no feedback.
The following are considered invalid feedbacks
- Hostile remarks / comments
- Feedback where no deal has occurred
- Multiple feedbacks
Please use the Feedback Resolution option found at the left side of your screen, just above the "Logoff" button.
