Welcome to the CCF!
Posting External Links (11/1/2010)
If you are a new member, please refrain from posting external links right away, live or static, unless you have prior approval from the staff. Stick around and get to know everyone first. This will avoid any confusion about your intentions. Good things come to those who wait.
The posting of external links by new members (under 50 posts) is tightly monitored for...
Drive-By Links: Promotion by new members of other sites. These type links are sometimes very obvious, sometimes they are not. We are not a free advertising site, so if you are here to advertise please click here. Posting links to sites you own is not allowed until you reach 50 quality posts. Please do not be offended if you have a link removed. It's not a reflection on the quality of the site and it's not personal.
Profile Links: Search engines are blocked from member profiles, so if you are thinking of signing up just to get a back link in your profile, keep moving and don't waste our time and yours. It will be worthless.
Competing Links: From time to time links may be posted that are in a direct conflict with a Coin Community revenue stream. These links may be removed depending on the possible affects on this site. Be sure to also see the self promotion rule.
Go To Top Of Page Buy / Sell / Trade / Want List Rules (1/19/2012)
250 quality* posts and membership for 90 days are required to; post items for sale, post items for trade, or reply to a want list. Specific selling rules here.
100 quality* posts and membership for 21 days are required to; post links to sales on external sites such as
ebay or eCrater.
50 quality* posts and membership for 14 days are required to; buy items, respond to a trade, or post a want list.
All buying, selling, and trading must be done in the appropriate forums, not the discussion forums.
Topics in the Want List and Trade forums may be edited forever, therefore only one topic per member in these forums is allowed.
Charity sales of any type must have prior approval from the Staff.
All transactions made on or initiated from the forum are 100% the responsibility of the members involved. Coin Community is merely a venue for the transaction and assumes no responsibility whatsoever. Trade, buy, and sell at your own risk.
Posting or sharing the personal information collected during a transaction with another member without express permission from that member is a significant breach of trust and security and is strictly forbidden.
The Staff reserves the right to pull any buy, sell, or trade reference at any time for any reason without consequence.
The Staff reserves the right to ban any member from buying, selling, or trading at any time for any reason without consequence.
These rules apply to everyone and are not negotiable. Any attempts to circumvent these rules will be dealt with swiftly and very likely with consequences.
*Quality post: This is entirely at the Staff's discretion. Running through a bunch of topics and responding with "cool", "nice find", "thanks", and similar short no-brainer responses are not considered quality posts. Don't laugh, we've had new members do this then go straight to the sell section and post a link to their
ebay auctions. Post counts may be edited by the Staff at any time without warning.
