This would be the new rule, Rae.

How can you contact a member directly, here on the board, if the PM has been disabled? That's what the rules state, but how do you do that? Am I missing something?


Be the change you wish to see in the world

The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in helping others

May all beings everywhere be happy and free, and may the thoughts, words, and actions of my own life contribute in some way to that happiness and to the freedom for all.

Not sure. I guess one could make a thread to try and talk things out? :\

Thank you. For some reason I thought I had already seen that rule. Maybe we talked about it in a thread. :)


Actually, as it turns out, it is easy being green.

I've recently encountered a problem and am rather confused since I don't see anything in the rules to explain this. But I had a thread in the psychic section which I had originally posted offering free readings and recently someone responding in that thread asked me about my artwork. I offered to set up a custom listing in the MP for them and they ASKED me to do this. But after I posted the link TO THE MARKETPLACE LISTING, not an offsite link, it was removed by a mod before this person could see it. The reason given for it's removal in place of the MP link that had been there was that this is only allowed in seller announcements? This was not a seller announcement, was not an offsite link, it was by request for a specific buyer...and I'm sure that I've seen plenty of others looking to rehome spirits and things post links to their MP listings outside of the seller announcement area with no problems.

I checked to see if this had been changed recently, but the only thing I see in the rules regarding links that are only allowed in the seller announcement section is links leading to offsite venues. If we are only allowed to post our MP links in the seller announcements...then if we're posting them in response to someone asking us for services either in one of our own threads elsewhere or in response to a want ad in the classified section...are we supposed to make a seller announcement for a MP listing intended for that one person and then post the link to the seller announcement in the thread we're responding to them on? I'm very confused here.

this is a good new rule. nobody likes to see passive aggressive posts directed at a member that someone has disagreed with. or after the original thread then three people posting their grievances about the topic and member somewhere else.. i think part of the reason this happens, (not saying it's okay, but) is because there are possibly people here that feel they have no where else to vent about their negative feelings about a metaphysical disagreement with someone. and yes of course it's not TRULY a meta disagreement..it's a conversation that starts in this meta community and then devolves into personal attack for a variety of reasons.

but it makes me wonder (as i just saw this rule now i think* for the first time) if one of my recent posts was appropriate or not, it was something just saying hey here's a reminder to be respectful of others, etc but it was written as a direct result of seeing people yelling at each other...
