@psg1ben the no cross posting as I understand it is to keep people engaged with the forum, rather than it being another place where you can sell whatever bikes/bits/clothes, primarily to stop you smashing out ads on here, marketplace, ebay, etc. all at once and then not being around to respond to whatever offers/replies you do get.
If you see bods whether old or new cross posting, call them on it, but I'm assuming those that have been on here awhile, will probably get the benefit of the doubt as they are still engaged with the forum, haven't fucked off and aren't contactable, and still put more into the forum (whatever that may be), than they take out.
Classifieds on here is an imperfect place, but its better than most because of the no cross posting, as frustrating as it can be for a new person looking to sell that track bike which they haven't gotten on with, its better than having the place carpet bombed by sales threads by users who don't return or engage with the place.
I don't spend much time in classifieds, so apologies if its changed since last I tried to sell stuff, but sometimes people need to get out of the classifieds and be upset by any number of threads in misc and meaningless.
