You just missed your chance, Reg just sold his entire collection for $1.00

Ok guys, enough silliness. Restating that this was requested 8 months ago, and then made into a rule 6 months ago, and posted in 2 locations and bumped frequently. Some guys chose to wait until an hour before the deadline, some guy took care of it right off. If you didn't, for whatever reason (207 people didn't for the record) then it was pulled per the rule. But now it's simple, add location...wait patiently without flipping out or crying and miss all the stuff being sold off in the BST at bargin basement prices, plus Jay's first RC10 build being auctioned off. It's not a big deal, and the location requirement was for member protection and to eliminate confusion. Thank you, and if you've PM'ed me and I haven't responded, I'm too busy packing the moving truck full of RC stuff I just sold to CA.

the wheels for this started turning back in October of 2012, being asked for by your fellow members. so if you're mad about it, go blame Gomachv.

Can I change his name to Gorbachev now, since he's initiated communist action here, can I, can I!

Be more creative, just add the wine stain splotch to my avatars forehead

You'd never be able to slip that much income past the IRS. The site would have to send you a W-2 form every year.

I think we should offer thoes who lost ther B/S/T rigths a why back with a $25 donation to RC10Talk

I thought about it......

a small donation to the site to expedite the return process might be worth it to some addicts around here

In all seriousness, I think that would set a very bad precedent... but that's just a personal opinion of mine.... my "twee sent" as they say in South Africa....

i know it was said in joking but I agree that it would set a bad precedent. On that note I think that the one month ban is not the best way to go about it. some of those guys have a lot of posts. It does not seem right to punish them like children. Not every one logs in every day and checks every thing. I do but I have no life I think that if they corrected it they should be immediately reinstated or when ever it is convenient for the the mods/admins. Just my opinion for whatever it is worth.

yes, it was said as a joke, meant as a joke and even had a to clarify it was in a joking manner . I'll also clarify that it was pry already known to set a bad precedent and that is why it was only 'thought about'. The post was there in multiple places and bumped quite regularly. No big deal if it was missed. I'm sure others missed it too.

Its already in play and isn't going to be changed. As far as why and what the consequences are it really doesn't need to be discussed any further.

If anyone has any questions I try to keep my pm inbox open for anything like this and will get back with them asap.
