I will be waiting for Doug to reply, Bryan I have no idea why your original thread was locked the way it was. It was a one sided attack against you and unwarrented. The thread was over 4 months old and brought back up for one reason only. That reason was to end the thread,.... i dont know why.
It appears the winter blues are already upon us, sad to say... Even if it was vindictive, its out of my hands.
PS, there is NO sticky at the top of the BUICK cars for sale section stating there needs to be a price.
All im saying is that someone needs to do their homework before they start locking threads.

BW, maybe YOU should do your OWN homework before deciding what someone's motivations are, since you very OBVIOUSLY have no idea of mine. Maybe YOU should pick up a phone and call someone before making false accusations about another member like you have done here. Your behavior in the above post certainly says a lot about YOU, that's for certain.
Now to answer your questions AFTER you have already acted as judge and jury:
The thread was locked because I asked TwoBryans to put legitimate prices on his cars. I gave him ample time to do so, even though I wasn't required to do so by the forum rule. Instead, he decided to play childish games by putting a $1 million price on every car in order to continue ignoring the clear intention of the rule. I could have deleted every single post in the original thread as it clearly states in the rule, but again I did not. I left the information out there and instead simply closed the thread. I would be more than happy to remove it entirely if that will make the Bryans happier.
There was no "attack" on anyone, Wanner. You're just pissed because you asked me to let the rule slide and I didn't agree. I fail to see why TwoBryans shouldn't have to list legitimate prices for his cars but everyone else should. Apparently you do. If so, please explain for all of us why that should be. I'd be interested to hear it.
Next, your baseless and false accusation that the thread was brought up solely to close it is absolute BS. I only come into the forums occasionally, and I only come into them as "moderator" occasionally. Therefore, when I do, I go through a large sample of the for sale ads and make sure the basic rules are being followed by everyone. If they aren't, I post a clear request AS A COURTESY TO THE POSTER about what needs to be corrected and allow the poster time to correct it. I am NOT required to do this, but I do. If the poster doesn't correct the issue, I close the thread. Again, I COULD delete all posts in the thread as stated in the forum rule, but I don't, AS A COURTESY to the poster so the essential information about his car can still be had. So, I'm giving the poster every opportunity to correct the situation before taking any action, and even when I do, it is less than I could take.
Thus, there is nothing "vindictive" about anything that has transpired. But there sure has been a lot of childish bitching and smearing just because Bryan Turner got his shorts in a bunch when he was asked to follow the rules that everyone else does about pricing his cars for sale.
Everyone looks at both for sale forums, and the rule has been posted for THREE AND A HALF YEARS. Anyone who hasn't seen it or didn't know about it either doesn't pay attention or willfully ignores it. If your lame reasoning is that the reason it wasn't followed here is because it wasn't posted in the TBs for Sale section, then Lawdy Bee we'll get it posted there, too.
As for you, Bryan Turner, for someone who professes to be the consummate professional in everything he says and does, you sure have shown your true colors here. All you were asked to do was follow the same rules everyone else does and post legitimate prices for your cars for sale. Instead, you ignore moderator requests, you play games with rules, explain in long-winded detail how the rules don't apply to you, and sick your surrogates on me to harass me in all of my other threads in an effort to "punish" me (while disguising it as "just asking simple questions." Very nice indeed. All because you can't manage to post simple clear prices for all the cars you deal in (and you are a dealer, whether or not you are licensed is immaterial when compared to the number of cars you deal in). I know you think it's all about you and the world revolves around you, but sadly, it doesn't. Anyone else who I've ever requested to post a price for their cars has done so gladly; you are the one and only poster who has refused to do so. Therefore I'm picking on you, right? Wrong.
seriously why not make them post a price AND location ?? I don't see the big deal .. don't like it then post it somewhere else to go "fishing"
