I take it that you all have read the pertinent posts in the Swap Forum rules .
These apply to outside the forum sales also . I rarely comment on this but I do make the rules in the Warung . That having been said here are a few ideas and comments : 1. If any one of our members sees even a third hand quote from here used to sell a keris or any other weapon in any venue (even PM or email) without the express consent of the commenting member, members, or mentions the Warung in a sales pitch, that seller if a member here will be permamently banned . Please notify the Moderators via PM ; be specific; have proof . 2. I would like to float an idea here ; how about a 30 day time limit before a keris discussed here in the Warung may be offered for sale in Swap ? 3. I would also suggest that those who endlessly offer these 'discussion' keris without taking any other part in the Warung should have their motives closely examined by the Staff . If it is found that a member is posting keris in the Warung ONLY to sell then they will be banned . We will not be used as a sales catalogue; ever . Bottom line; if you are here only to sell keris put them in Swap; not here ! Comments would be greatly appreciated . Last edited by Rick; 22nd November 2009 at 08:52 PM. |

2. I would like to float an idea here ; how about a 30 day time limit before a keris discussed here in the Warung may be offered for sale in Swap ? Hello Rick, I agree with you, Alan and David complete that posting keris for comments only by the reason to sell it isn't acceptable and that you and David have to find rules to anticipate this. But with this 30 day rule I have my problems. I have bought not long ago a sword from Africa but I thought it's from Indonesia but I haven't be sure by this and give it to discussion. After it have been clear that it don't fit in my collection since I only collect Indonesian/Philippines I moved it direct to the swap forum for selling or swap. I don't have seen any bad by this. I also sell things in e-bay but I am not a dealer, I thin out my collection when I want to buy something better or something I don't have and I have to do like this because I am not a rich man.

Hi Sajen, what we are discussing here is *only* for the Warung and the sale of keris .
30 days does not apply to the other forums (nor here for that matter yet). The posting rules in Swap are there to read . |

Fair enough. I definitely prefer to have policies spelled out a little more.
