Instead of ending comments, I would prefer to see the comments not be so heavily moderated. Not allowing comments does nothing but enable the jackwads that are trying to drive this site into the ground the last couple months.

If you end comments in the thread, people will move to derogatory PM's toward the seller, then you will have people reporting PM's because they are pissed about their inbox filled with nasty comments. It just starts a whole new cycle.


What is so bad about keeping people honesty. Might as well do away with feedback, then nobody will know what we think of the seller.

Respectfully, I totally disagree with your post. The only jackwads I see are the ones who want to decide what is best for others. Why is it so hard to let another member decide what price is correct, what he/she should buy, or what he/she should not buy? Keeping people honest, really? You honestly believe that profit was not made on this site before the present day panic? You believe that since you cannot post negative comments in another members ad, it will lead to posting negative PMs to that member? Do you really send negative PMs to other members because you don't like their price? Why? As for feedback, since you are not a buyer, there would be no feedback to leave. Your opinion of the price of an item is just that, your opinion. I do have a suggestion for you, find me one post started by a disgruntled buyer who was upset at the price he paid. All I ever see are non-buyers upset at pricing. Check the feedback score on the member who sold the item that you felt was a too high price. Someone must have liked the item enough to pay the price that you did not like.

So, we can't complain about prices/flippers in their threads. I got that.

But, what about those who want to create their own threads to complain? Will they be protected from the "Free-Market Freedom Fighters" chastising them or will they just have to endure?

I just saw a guy on another thread that was a little upset when he found out that an sks usually does not go for $800 most people probably would not start a thread about gettin ripped and have abunch of trolls laughing at them for the stupid price they paid for something and did not know any better.

If someone is stupid enough to buy something without researching the item before hand then there is nothing you can do for them.

Exactly, and we don't want the next t shirt to be "the odt-where your prices are set by bullies"

I agree 100%, but the folks who can't control themselves are ruining it for everyone.

Just start banning those idiots and it will stop. I agree 100% you all do what you do and do it well. I hate to see these clowns posting in the thread about the prices, if you don't like it, MOVE THE F ON, it is that simple.
