New ads MUST be limited to three ads per day (per each section of the classifieds). In this case, a day is referring to a 24 hour period, therefore only 3 ads per category can be posted per 24 hour period.

Replies to ads can now only be made by the person that posts the ad. All correspondence between potential buyer and seller must be done through email or private message.

Thread starters can "bump" their ads no more than two times total, then they must allow the ads to fall. Any post made after the initial post of the ad is considered a bump.

Please keep in mind that a "bump" to an ad DOES count towards your 3 ad per day limit, therefore you may not have a total of more than 3 new ads or bumps of old ads in a 24 hour period. For example, if you bump 2 ads you will only be able to post one new ad in a 24 hour period (per category).

To summarize, you are allowed 3 new ads or ad bumps a day per category, and any ad can only be bumped/posted on twice, after that it must be allowed to fall.

Any member wanting to post for sale or auction animals or any items or services to benefit a charity or website MUST get written permission (via pm or email) from the administrator before posting such ads. This includes classified ads with items for sale or auction to benefit GeckoForums.net.

Violations will be deleted without warning, no exceptions.

Yesterday while cleaning out old ads I found multiple members had bumped their ads more than twice. Please note that no matter what your additional post are to your they are still considered a bump no matter what. If the animal is sold and you no longer want the ad up please pm myself or another mod with a link to the ad and we will delete them.

I try to keep up on closing ads that are already bumped twice to keep the infractions down, but it's not required for me to do so, it is however your responsibility to follow the rules of this site. Please pay attention to the number of times you bump your ads. These rules are in place to keep the classified sections fair so that all ads can be seen without some people hogging up the spotlight.

I don't enjoy giving infractions so please don't make me out to be a bad guy and follow the rules. :main_thumbsup:

Could you let me know: after an ad has been bumped twice, is there an amount of time we should wait before posting it again as a new ad?
