you need to put sales or trades in the SC when you have been here long enough to use it.Originally Posted by hicksmat

Yes I know. This isn't a sales post.
No, but your previous post looks very much like one.
But it wasn't. :/
Hmm
eBay is good for selling.
which I am not adverse to selling or trading.......
Thanks for the advice but as I said, this isn't a sales post. :/
Apologies, I read 'not adverse to selling or trading' as looking for offers to buy or trade.
Its really not a good to jump on people - its bullying tbh.
I'm 6ft 2 and built like a brick shit house, so I don't react well to bullying tbh.
edited, to satisfy the keyboard bullies on here ;)
My dad would be bigger than yours were it not for the fact he died a few years ago.
What does your size have to do with anything? Are you going to have a punch up with someone over an internet comment? Furthermore, using your logic, how do you know that the other chap isn't 6'3" and built like a titanium outhouse?
This site is a self moderated forum (for the most part, the all-seeing-eye does have a way of resolving issues when deemed necessary) and solicitation of watches outside the SC will get members backs up. No one was bullying you, it was an observation.
Don't make me bring out my favourite t-shirt -
You may be 6'2" but that doesn't make you too big for a man-hug.
Gosh, you sound like a real bad-ass.
No-one jumped on anything, no-one bullied anyone, what are you on about?
Why are you getting involved? What does it have to do with you?
Err, it's an open forum where members are free to comment. If you want a private conversation then use PM
Honestly guys, re-read what you are writing to a relative newbie on this forum and ask yourself if you think what you post is acceptable?
there are a lot of keyboard warriors on the web, I get that, nothing better to do than slag off people on forums, very sad lonely individuals, bitter. I do get that, but I didn't think this site would be the same. Sadly I am mistaken.
Your original post could have been read as a sales / trade pitch.
This was pointed out to you, in a jokey manner to use eBay, or by the slightly more serious wait until you can get to SC.
You replied that it wasn't a sales / trade post and people replied even apologised, as it could be read as one.
I'm not sure where you thought the bullying came in, maybe you're a sensitive soul and not as thick skinned as some.
That's all, there's no need for anyone to throw a hissy fit or be accused of being something they are not.
Word of advice though
Stating how big and presumably hard you are, then implying that you could get violent just because someone made a comment you disliked isn't going to win you any favours.

I take it that was some other skinny looking dude in a pink shirt in the avatar you've removed since making this comment then??. I'm 12 feet tall, my arms were replaced by machine guns (typing's a bitch!!) and I have frickin' lasers for eyes so don't come here looking for a fight!
Seriously, I don't see where the bullying remark came from. People just pointed out that your comment of "which I'm not averse to selling or trading........." perhaps came across as "I can't access SC yet but if you want to buy this drop me a PM". Perhaps that wasn't your intention, just the way it came across.
Oh, and I do really like the watch although not looking to buy. It's a nice change for Ball to have a simple face and "normal" crown.
I saw that too!
Well all I can say is don't let the door hit your well toned muscular bottom on the way out.
No, but this one is.

TFF.

That's one trade I cannot see happening any time soon
As a recent joiner, I thought you were being a bit harsh until I saw this post.
For the record, I have no watches to sell or trade! Happy to bide my time until SC is available.
Youre not though are you? I mean, youre 6' 2" perhaps but, build-wise, where in "Miggleton" would I have to look at you to think you were a brick sh*t house Matt?
The guy's just a bulls hitter
I'm 6'2, hmm possibly but doubt it
I'm built like a bricks hit house, he isn't
It's not a sales post, it sorta is
Wow, embarrassing.

Quite. But careful cos ees ard he is.
Obligatory soundtrack to this thread:
Wearng this after a couple of months and am loving it
That's a cracker!
Are you Frank Carson?
It's the way he tells 'em.
Is he a dealer too?
So I rang up British Telecom, I said 'I want to report a nuisance caller', he said 'Not you again'.
That's really nice. I could see that on my wrist.
Swap it for a Guinand 40?
Might take me a while to find one.
