We have a tough time now getting payments for members listings. It would really be too hard to monitor whose paying for what listing. We just don't have the time. Better the person placing the listing, pay for it... Monitoring links to other ads, sites etc would be impossible.

Look, nobody is spanking aynone here. These sticky rules have been in place for a long time. Admin should not have to continue to rehash them or justify their content....!

Those looking to buy a SeaCraft use the site for free, as it always will be no issues, but the For Sale section on this site is a resource to those SELLING as they PAY. I view them as customers and as any of my customers know I cater to them and make sure they get the best service possible.
People looking for SeaCrafts know (or learn) to check here, CL, eBay, etc.
The for sale section PAYS THE BILLS for running this site, simple as that and I aint f'ing with it.
Sorry to sound as if someone pissed in my cheerios but sometimes I don't think people,understand messing with the For Sale takes $$ away that runs this site.
I hope you all understand it is for the good of the site. If you want to help the site, please recruit people selling their seacrafts to this forum. 3 out of 5 SeaCrafts listed on this site are sold due to the listing on CSC.

Jason
