Many people already know the rules and choice to ignore them. Even before these newer rules, you seen many people getting banned over and over for breaking the same rules. They often break the rules because it means more money for them. If you bump your thread over and over, it brings it to the top and you will sell more. To some, that is worth a few infractions and a short ban. Sending an email telling them about the rules will not fix that. JMO
just wanted to clarify a point Can we start a thread in Domains Section (under BST) where I dont want to disclose the domain name to the public, but there I write the price of domain and everything and also write that 'PM me for the domain name'
of course, just make sure you accept all PM's. on another note, the idea of banning many people for 24 hours due to "PM me" type posts was a good idea but didn't work, as the "PM Me" and "PM sent" type posts are still flooding the BST area. next time do a 72 hour ban, something with some kick to it.
That could be because of the fact that not many people view GC section. There are a lot of members who're only concerned with B/S/T section.
This is possible. But is it practical, I once owned a forum around 10K members once and it took me a lot of time to send the message in mass. My server was practically cracking to send all of the emails in mass. Emm.. but that could probably due to my server only. Though DP has around a few hundred Ks of members? p/s- also I thought only admin can send mass PMs @ emails?
