Can we fix these two issues please?

I fully agree someone just typing bump every couple of hours and bumping their thread should be against the rules.

HOWEVER someone replying to QUESTIONS FROM POTENTIAL BUYERS SHOULD NOT GET A THREAD A 24 HOUR LOCK!

Dont be forum nazis.

Just PM the person. I think the rules are great and ISD Decoy does a great job keeping the forums clean from rule violators.

Pretty sure I have never posted that... I might have posted a legit question about the toon like... "what's wrong with the toon since you just bought it last night?" before

Locked. If you want to ask questions of a seller as a potential buyer, contact them via other methods. The reason it's considered in the same boat as abusing the bump rule is because it moves the thread to the top of the queue unfairly, which reduces the likelihood that other similar offers will be seen.

Equally, if a seller doesn't want to accept an offer, then he/she simply shouldn't reply at all to it, as replying to it also would bump the thread up to the top.

A rant is a post that is often filled with angry and counterproductive comments. A free exchange of ideas is essential to building a strong sense of community and is helpful in development of the game and community. Rants are disruptive, and incite flaming and trolling. Please post your thoughts in a concise and clear manner while avoiding going off on rambling tangents.

12. Discussion of forum moderation is prohibited.

The discussion of EVE Online forum moderation actions generally leads to flaming, trolling and baiting of our ISD CCL moderators. As such, this type of discussion is strictly prohibited under the forum rules. If you have questions regarding the actions of a moderator, please file a support ticket under the Community & Forums Category.

31. Abuse of CCP employees and ISD volunteers is prohibited.
