I had an ad for a 442 Hurst shifter and it got deleted. Why? Can an admin please shoot me a PM with an explanation.

Thanks,

Matt, I don't recall deleting an ad for a 442 Hurst shifter. Perhaps one of the moderators deleted it because you forgot to include a price in the ad. Please make sure you include a price. Example:

NOS 442 Hurst shifter, still in package. $500 obo

 

I followed all of the forum guidelines about posting ads and yet it was deleted. I never received a message as to why. My other request was deleted as well. Can someone please be a stand up person and let me know why? Don't just hide behind a screen and a keyboard.

Don't know the answer to your question as I did not see your add. It might have been a simple mistake. Please post your add again and I will look at it and I will post reply to your add. As a moderator I have no way of knowing who or why it was eliminated. You could PM Oldsguy as he is the administrator for the site and might have your answer.

Is this the ad you are talking about?

I'm no expert, but a few peaple have had an issue with their "cookies" setting. Maybe thats your problem. Hope that helps.

I found it by clicking on your user name and then click on find all posts by fast 67.

double post......see what I mean?

 

I've never even heard of any posts being deleted here unless they were the X rated stuff we used to get??
This is a corporate site so don't go looking for any owner that sits and hides behind his screen and keyboard.

 

This site is FREEEE.... the complaints dept. is over der somewhere.

 

I recall the insignificant dust up over your post of your '66 3X2 manifold, which was for sale on ebay. I was glad you brought the sale to our attention, specifically my attention. I didn't win it, but it was nice to have had the chance. You seem to have parts available of direct relevance to the taste of the board, so who knows what the rub is or could be.

Should it prove your post of moderated parts sales reports have basis, I hope no case of selective moderation becomes evident. Keep the auctions of interesting parts coming - CW

 

I will check it out.

 

might have something to do with not giving a price.

simple solution:just repost the ad

 

It was a 70-72 Hurst console shifter assembly. The shifter was on ebay with no reserve. I see many ads listed here with ebay links and no prices and they never get deleted. I also see people post links to e-bay and craigslist links of parts they don't even own with no price and they don't get deleted as well. I am just trying to see what made my ad so different?

Matt, I merged your threads onto the General Discussion forum since this isn't a "part for sale" thread. Please don't double post.

FWIW, I don't know why your original "part for sale" thread was deleted. I don't recall deleting it.

 

Talk about things disappearing, try joining that realoldspower site. I did, took like a month to be accepted, then a month or so ago my acct was deleted w/o warning as was many others it appeared . I never bothered asking why though, as the admins are either too busy or on another planet perhaps.

 

I have the same problem ROP. I had an account and now it seems that I don't. I have had no luck contacting the admin on that site.

 

you won't see spam from ebay vendors on ROP

 

I don't consider it spam and don't encourage any of those ads to be deleted.

 

fixed.
