    Is that correct?
    Your policy about removing topics is strict, you simply don't delete topics? If so any exceptions?

    You cant change the title but if you made any typos or errors (such as pricing mistakes) I think you can ask a mod to edit the title.

    As we discussed in pm's the only exceptions to deleting topics is only if they break the rules otherwise they are permanent.

    Can you give me an example to a post that is breaking the rules?

    You have 8 hours to edit the content of a post, and you can't edit the topic title.

    Use the [​IMG] button to request topic changes.

    The mods do not delete posts, unless they are spammy.

    Why is it stone-cold policy?

    An example would be if someone made a sales thread which encourages people to bump the thread, such as "reply to the thread if you want to know the domain" or "if your interested reply saying i'm interested, pm me"

    there are many other ways for a thread to break the rules, just read the rules if you want to know what other types of threads would be against the rules.

    EDIT:
    Because the mods are busy enough without hundreds of people pm'ing them asking them to remove threads.

    1. This forum is too large for us to remove every post requested.

    2. We don't allow edits / deletions beyond 8 hours, because that would further enable scammers (who would change the advertised rates and sale details after people were engaged in a transaction).

    3. Please don't ask mods to change your titles unless there is a major error there (a typo really isn't a good enough reason for us to take the time - we're extremely busy). Always check and double-check it before posting.
