Right this dang minute...
We are sick and tired of people trying to cheat the system.... you will now be banned immediately upon Posing for sale or to buy.... Don't expect reinstatement or a reply from us.
After 16 years we've had our fill of scams, con artist cheeper's, Crooks, Thieves, Manipulators, and the lowest of life con artist to scam Tradgang members....
Fighting scammers is a battle worth fighting.
This has nothing to do with the classifieds..... Thank God they run clean!!!
I'm really sorry for having to post this but I'm really mad at the moment..... And I'm going protect Tradgang and its members come h*** or high water.
I have posted warning after warning some don't. want to read the rules or abide by them.
Go get them, I can only imagine all the garbage we don't see. Thanks Terry!
Thanks x2 appreciate all ya do terry n mods

Go down 2 post and there is a sale post. Guess I don't understand your message.
The Trad Gang plan for eliminating scammers -- a pay-to-play classified ad system -- is something that I have seen work here. I have to admit that I wondered at first if it would work to keep scammers out, but after seeing the results I am convinced.
Most of us don't know how much time the Trad Gang leadership used to have to spend chasing scammers and deadbeats around on behalf of the members who were being cheated, but I know it was a lot. And that was time taken away from their families, jobs, fun, etc..
Remember that Trad Gang is a free site. The only cost is being registered for the classifieds, and that is voluntary if you want to buy/sell. And that cost is nothing compared to the cost of being cheated on a transaction. Remember the pay-to-play classifieds have virtually eliminated the crooks.
Now the crooks try to push person-to-person transactions on Pow-Wow? No way should that be allowed.
Well done, Terry.
Al Dean, what's the name of the thread please?
I hate spammers too!
I am a bit surprised at how often the leadership has to post reminders on this problem. We are all grown, so this issue should not exist. Terry, you guys are doing a good job.
Al, the thread you are referencing was started by a Sponsor.

Yep..... It gets really really old repeating over and over and over and over and over and over.... So we have no choice but to get out the ax...... I don't have time to keep telling people 172 times in one week.

Hang 'em, it'll teach 'em a lesson!!! Thanks for your diligence, I've got some rope!!!
Hey fake raider.... You're surprised???
I have to hand it to you... I'm surprised you have made it since 2009 with a fake name... With only 32 post within 10 years you finally told on yourself..... Boy are we weeding the garden today.
:thumbsup: Why is it when you post the rules in plain English that someone always tries to sneak in the back door? :dunno:
Thanks for keeping the site clean.
Selling banned on pow wow unless you are a sponsor, is that correct?

Thanks Joe for jumpin in!! Its an endless battle but well worth the effort!
I'll gladly pay the modest contributor fee each year instead of paying a per item commission on Fleabay. Thank you for your tireless efforts in maintaining a forum where everyone is respected and all classified sales are trustworthy.
