After RTMing another Vapid ruined thread i have to ask is anything going to be done about him?

His little remarks are easily overlooked most of the time, but when he starts trying to effect the sale of people cars amongst other things can't something be done?

I know there have been a few threads asking the same question, which have been unanswered.

I don't think stating the truth (as admitted by the vendor of the vehicle in question) is anything which requires moderation.

If you knew someone was trying to sell a car that had been abused within the community then surely it's your duty to at least tell them to look into the posters history. In this case a history where he boasts about numerous high rev standing starts, street racing and other abuse.

But thats not why you are doing it is it?

You are just doing it to be a pain in the ****. Any Impreza for sale on here has probably been thrashed at some point, but you don't post on those threads do you.

You are a pathetic piece of work, as proven when you threated me with violence, then denied it happened after the post was removed.

Spineless little coward. I'm sure you'll deny posting it, but you and me, aswell as a few others saw it, and it just proves how pathetic you really are.

I miss the good old days of telling someone their car was priced to highly, and highlighting things they'd "missed" from the adverts.

It's people like Vapid who are, off their own back, trying to bring back the good old days.

I've certainly never threatened you with violence and am at a loss to understand why you keep claiming this. What exactly do you contend I said?

As for the issue about the car in question the person selling it has repeatedly boasted about thrashing it to within an inch of it's life and as I'm an active member of those forums where it's mentioned I feel it's my duty to save potential buyers some heartache or get them to pay what the car's worth in light of it's history.

Vapid,

Read the sites T&C's and specifically the T&C's concerning the For Sale forums.

Please abide by these T&C's, regardless of your own thoughts or views.

Thanks for the tip, please note the comments referred to in this thread were NOT made in the 'for sale' section. I'll be careful to stick strictly within the terms and conditions of that section should I post there.

Unsure wheather Davyboy is being sarcastic or not. But I do agree with telling sellers if they price too high. Another sect that's untouchable it now seems. People who say a car is overpriced are generally right as some take several months and even more price cuts before they *appear* to be sold.
