Please stop posting I want to buy it/ need it here

It's clogging the boards and your costing me time and effort searching through all the carp I dont want or need. Please see the thread ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ upwards

Time is the one thing in life we cant get back, so I value mine

I'm very willing to help board guides if you need it

    There are people who see post counts as a badge of honour....having more posts than you immediately makes them better than you, and therefore right (even when they are wrong)

    That isn't aimed at anyone in this thread mind, just a general observation from years of forum use.

    No ... what is meant is that when posts like that are done then you get people who have never contributed to the board or with very little contribution despite years as a member slagging of genuine contributers.

    If you think the OP is rude then how rude are the people who DONT read the rules or IGNORE the rules just because they cant be polite enough to find the correct place for a post. Every year at christmas (and throughout the year) we go through HUNDREDS of total garbage "I want", "where can I get" "Whats the cheapest place to get" threads posted in the wrong place and which the MODS have to spend thier time on reviewing and moving/deleting just because people are being RUDE.

    Anyway.. I went through a whole load of this last Chrimbo Im not doing it again.


    My last post and look here..

    Have not posted any "I wanna" etc for a long time, but can you just re-educate me here- this is now not allowed? have the rules changed?

    I thought that was what this thread was for- or is that the discount one?

    Sorry for being bit dim here, but what exactly is the shop but don't drop thread for?

    Isn't it all carp you don't need, otherwise you would have bought it already. Don't look, and you will save time and money
