Thread locking on WANTED posts...why?

POSTED BY: scabbers 4 weeks, 3 hours ago

I've seen a few posts asking for Wii games Xbox games, a phone etc. Mostly these threads get locked because you have to ask for a SPECIFIC game or phone etc. I know it's in the rules, and there may be a good reason, but could someone tell me why please?

because someone can offer you a game, then you reply later saying you dont want it, thats 2 bumps right there and your not even interested in the game, so you have to be specific otherwise its unfair to other members as there threads get pushed down the list.

Oh, I didn't realise the ''bumping'' ruled applied to WANTED posts aswell.

The problem is even if you're specific sometimes people will offer you alternatives which could count as a bump by proxy...

Do mods count that as a bump? (When you specify which you want)
