Dk240z:

I tried to send you a private message but can't figure out how to check and see if you got it or if it went through. I'm interested in the brackets and if you want to respond here or through the private message I'd be interested to know what you're asking for them. Thanks for letting me know you have them.

got a couple of other leads that may have front and back but I'll check back in if those don't pan out. Thanks for letting me know

Just send me a PM if you want them.

Guys,

That's what the Classifieds on this website are for. Whether you are looking for a particular part or you're wanting to sell parts. Please keep this sort of thing off the forums.

But YOU are the new member, you may want to consider that before you go attacking the rest of the members or moderators.

Seems to be a lot of that going on of late......:stupid:

Steve is correct. Wanted and for sale posts are not supposed to be in the technical/discussion forums. That's what the free classifieds are for. Normally, I delete this type of thread as soon as I see it, along with a PM to the poster about the classifieds. I've been buried at work of late, so I don't get to the site as often and I miss things.

I'm new to all of this, not just this site but forums in general. I apologize for upsetting so many of you and will keep learning as I go. I appreciate all the help some of you have given me, hope my lack of knowledge of how these forums work won't keep any of you from responding in the future. This is a great site and will do my best to stay in good graces from here on out.

jeese, lots of rules here, whats wrong with the i got-you want exchange? I know im on double- secret- probation & what not, but why make people jump through the extra hoops? just a question.

The classifieds were moved to:

http://www.datsunclassifieds.com/index.php

There are several reasons, but the simplest is that it allows the ads to be in one central location that can "age" and retire the ads as they age. On the forum here, there were instances of people reviving For Sale ads that were years old, the same for Wanted ads. As you can imagine, sometimes even the original poster would not recall the original offer/need.

Want Ads / For Sale Ads are transitory and it is difficult to retire them accurately. The separate site gives the poster the control than what he has here.

Threads on this forum are kept open for people to view, and when it adds to the thread, to post to it. Threads don't get locked down unless they get out of control and fall into argumentative and disruptive comments.

As far as the rules here, you'll find that we actually are less stringent and oppressive here than other forums. We do have posting and decorum standards that have established themselves over many years. Those standards aren't oppressive, nor are they difficult to conform to. They may be difficult to delineate and specify exactly at what point a transgression begins to occur... which is why we try to be very lenient... but if you post aggressive, threatening, and insulting comments you'll find that you WILL have crossed the line.

In a nutshell, treat others politely, don't label, accuse or denigrate individuals or groups and you'll fit in. Push the limits and you'll be put on, as you put it, double secret probation.

You've already been cautioned, and yet you insist on publicly chaffing and "pushing it".

Do you really expect the thousands of members who DO get along with each other on this site to change their behavior because one person doesn't like it? It's really quite simple, if you don't like it, let us know and we'll refund the price of your admission and let you get on down the road. We can agree to disagree.

Again, you're welcome to stay and get along... or not and be asked to leave... or be locked out.

again, to everyone I've offended, I apologize. I like this site and hope to be a productive contributor in the future.

Michael, the last part of my last post to this thread was directed at 5thhorseman.
