This is just unbelievable.

I received this message today in regards to EVERY single one of my posts being deleted because my SIGNATURE said "Rolex Dealer," with a small avatar of Rolex. In which I was not pre-warned to remove before all the posts were deleted.

I was not EVEN PRE-WARNED to remove this before all the posts were deleted.

How is this even tolerated here?

Old Expat Beast · 7 April 2016, 06:42 AM

There were complaints about your listings. www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?p=6582498

Address the two issues. Then you can repost your seven ads when you have fixed them.

Also, I sent you that message 10 days ago, so a warning would have been pointless in this case.

AJL · 7 April 2016, 08:00 AM

Can you provide me with the links to my posts so I can fix it? I'm sorry, we sell on multiple active platforms and this forum has so many rules.

It's impossible to address them all without considerable warning. Are you saying I have to start from scratch to post all of them because of a simple phrase? "Like Brand-New" ? So if I would have removed "Brand" and said "Like New," that would be okay?

Is that what the issue is?

You keep calling out moderators and you won't be here long. You're not on a reality tv show here, certain etiquette needs to be followed.

. . .

First thing you need to do is remove your obviously commercial signature and avatar..

TRF is not a sales venue for you, it is a discussion forum with simple to understand rules that you should read.

There's a reason we have "so many rules".

None of the watches you advertised was even "like new", not even close, so no, that would not be ok. You need to provide descriptions of watches individually, not with a template like you did.

And sending me angry private messages and posting threads like this doesn't encourage me to do you any favours.

AJL thinks getting tossed out is unbelievable? That's rich.

At first I thought old expat beast had been banned/ads deleted and he had created another account. 🍕

you need to consider your descriptions, your watches they are not near new and describe your aftermarket parts I can't speak for these adds I did not see them but I have seen your adds on eBay before and you do not clearly state the diamonds on your watches are aftermarket additions, that won't fly here.

A query in buyers and sellers who's who is sure to follow ... I have a feeling the results will be predictable.

Buy the seller, this may offer some insight to the pawn broker business based out of Detroit.

Draw your own conclusions.

brandrea · 7 April 2016, 10:27 AM

I couldn't be a moderator, I'd snap

cpark · 7 April 2016, 10:34 AM

So let me get this straight.. this AJL guy was told to remove the Rolex logo from the signature as well as the AJL part and yet he still keeps it on.. I saw back on another thread that this guy made that another Moderator removed his signature because it violated the T&C's of TRF.. yet this guy is still putting his signature back up. Got to give the Moderators props for handling this well!

Porsche · 7 April 2016, 11:18 AM

Jeez, you act as if you are OWNED the right to advertise a retail/commercial enterprise here. The For Sale section is a courtesy for TRF members. There is no fee or cost to post an ad, so yeah, there are some basic housekeeping rules.

Adam, you have shown much more tolerance than I could, and your diplomatic responses are to be commended.

PS. OP, you STILL have the Rolex crown and logo in your signature? What don't you get?

offrdmania · 7 April 2016, 12:48 PM

OP, if you want to play the game then you need to play by the rules. Their private forum means their rules. Easy as that.. We all know what happens in your store when customers dont play by your rules, except this time, you are the customer playing by the Rolex Forums rules.

bayerische · 7 April 2016, 04:03 PM

So, what are you guys trying to say? That this isn't reality TV?

Seeing you have been requested to remove your signature and edit your business avatar and have not done so by one moderator already with no response. I have removed them both and if you want to argue or send me PMs I will quite happily show you the door.And this is a very very strong suggestion this is not a TV pawn reality store this is TRF,so if I was you do not argue with any moderator,as you will lose the argument every time. And it will be the last time you ever-lose on forum as it will be your last post on TRF hope this is crystal clear enough for you to understand.

I'm simply asking a question so I can stay within the boundaries of how posts should be done. Please do not take what I'm saying out of context or relate it to reality TV, I'm honestly trying to figure out what I've done wrong and how I can fix it without having to do all my posts from scratch..

AJL · 8 April 2016, 12:03 AM

Can someone just delete this thread for me? I really am only being verbally abused without answers now and it's not what this thread was intended for.

I'm sorry if you thought any of my messages included anger. You deleted all of my posts without warning or a reason why (AND HOW TO FIX IT). I still have not verbally abused you in anyway nor went outside of the boundaries of professionalism.

You provided me with no way to fix my posts before deleting them or an opportunity to even adjust them.

Your answer is clearly defined in below links to why your posts were removed and avatar and signature removed. If you complied with the forum rules there would not be any problems.

I gave you two reasons. Read the PM I sent you that you started this thread with. You had already had a bunch of ads removed by another moderator last month. Also, it took you ten days to respond to my private message telling you I had deleted these latest ones, so a warning would have been a waste of time.

Describe the watches you are selling honestly....it's not rocket science. Hundreds of members here do it. Look at a few ads, read all the rules. You'll get the hang of it.

Still with the yelling? I feel the end is near......

No, I was pointing out that OP had previously been informed about the sig issues. I could have been more clear.

I recommend you don't have public outburst like this. Even though you may have good prices and selection. Ive noticed the people on this forum buy the seller first and not the watch. This is shedding a very bad light on you and hopefully no one holds it against you from here on out.
