I'm not sure if your account will pass the rule of early account holders advertising listed items for sale, but best of luck in selling your items, nonetheless.

you're way too green to be selling here yet. A lot of selling on here is trust and quite honestly with how recent your account was made and how few post you have made... it looks like you only made this account to sell which, is not welcomed here.

it dont say in the marketplace rules that your account has to be a certain amount of time old so and i made this account to catalog my games and make a comprehensive wantlist and then i seen there was a marketplace and was like hey maybe they would appreciate some of my games more than me bc im not really passionate about the ds anymore, point is, i dont see why i cant sell here and i did not make my account just to sell here, yeah ive only been on here like 2 days but ive already started interacting on the forums, customizing my account, and added like literally 15 games to the database in one sitting, im obviously not just on here to sell

Like I said It Looks Like. All I'm trying to say is that making one of your first post be about selling a rare game on a forum is a huge red flag for people.

the third bulletin under the listing Rules If you're only signing up to sell stuff then you're not welcome here.

Weather it was intentional or not, that is how it will look to people especially when 3 out of your 4 post here (As of writing this) have been on this thread. I'm not trying Sound like a dick, I'm just trying to give a heads up as to how it looks to most.

Can my wording be better though... Probably. Please just understand that there is no malice behind my responses

Relax mate.

You have 4 total posts with 3 of them being in this thread and one other one that makes zero sense to the topic it was posted in. A post in the intro thread might've helped or just replying to any thread on topic might have as well. Other than that, If you're looking to stick around then welcome aboard and get acclimated! However, you have to realize that there are some things working against your favor. New account, low posts, semi-rare item FS. While you posted a picture with your name, that's still a bad mixture and this thread may get locked.

As for verbiage regarding account age and what not, I thought there was but only spied this...

There's been a couple of others who've posted here recently and made a beeline for the Marketplace first. Maybe there ought to be something posted like "All FS Threads will be locked until 100 posts reached" though that's no guarantee someone won't just spam up the place to get access. Anyway, if you're sincere then get to acclimating but don't be surprised if this gets locked.  :P

*EDIT* I noticed the 4th post was in reference to an unofficial release so your post in the Seether Christmas thread makes better sense.

I will politely ask that forum members not backseat moderate.

I will speak with the staff for clarification, but I will tentatively rule that this topic and heffalumpeater are fine.  We have no rule stating how long you must have been a member and we have no rule stating you must be an active member of the forum.

The rule is clear as day.

When "mods" aren't doing their job, then it's fair game for others to do it for them, accordingly, of course. Occasional backseat modding doesn't hurt, especially when mods/admins aren't online...unless you'd prefer the forum devolved into chaos.
