Members who just want arms list, should I be bothered? Classifieds gripe…

I can't get my mind around why it would effect me in the slightest if some other member only came here for the guns. Personally wouldn't bother me a bit if they split it into 2 forums, one strictly guns and one about everything else. If you check out any of my posts they are almost entirely about politics, but I came originally for the gun stuff alone. I only post political stuff here because I caught FB shadow banning my posts, but here they don't play those games.

I seldom use my phone to access the forum, so this may not be an issue, but is it as easy to leave feedback on a phone as it is on an I-pad ? I know a couple of other forums I have used were not phone-friendly.
It is. I use my phone exclusively to get on here.

Well I got burned today on that Ed Brown. First time it's happened in all these years. I clearey stated I wanted it as you all saw and after muliple pm's were agreed to meet up today. He told me he "accidentally" sold it to another member. Probably someone pm'd him with a bigger price and he jumped.

Lesson learned on dealing with newbies with low feedback and no post except in classifieds.

Well it seems I won't be getting the subscription here. I respectfully corrected a seller and it turns out he's doing it on purpose. Which is essentially scamming, considering the price difference. His words were "newb" and "one of us is gunna learn"
In short, if that dishonesty is allowed here, I'll just continue my business with armslist. Honesty is a must in this hobby and if just being a member long enough is to allow dishonesty then it's not my place to hang out. I've met a couple people here and they were awesome. As most people in our hobby are. But at no point will I let dishonest people have a hold over my head because of "senority".

@BrassGoblin I responded to the add and would like to know how one would go about proving what it is exactly..I am curious myself and give the same credit to long term members as i do to new guys..I was a new guy once.

Some long term and some new guys are only here to sell and seldom visit the fishing or reloading section.
I joined for the outdoor stuff----- fish---- -hunt' reload.
