Fox Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 That would certainly alleviate some of the problem threads. If something was specifically defined as "fantasy" from the start then the only debate necessary would be over the quality/value of the item, and those who care about historical accuracy wouldn't waste their time or money. If something was defined as "historical" then it would be subject to debate about accuracy as well as quality, but there would be no grounds for objection. Call me a nay-sayer or pessimist if you will, but I suspect that many people will post stuff for sale without defining it (who ever reads the rules eh?!). In those cases I think it's only fair that the item or vendor should still be subject to debate, because at the end of the day it IS important to some people - those who don't care can skip over the authenticity debate, those who do can read it and contribute. If the didn't want to be subject to such analysis then they should have read the guidelines... Go for it Capt.

Capt Grey Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Alright shipmates, I added a "sticky" topic for people wanting to sell items. Hopefully they will take the time to read it. Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt Grey Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Well for all the discussion we had on this subject, the proposed solution is not working out at all. Sellers are not making any notation in their topic descriptions and the last time I added one I was "flogged" by the poster via PM. So instead of making more work for myself trying to help people with the historical/non-historical marker, I'm giving up. The new slogan for PLUNDER is: Caveot Emptor - Buyer Beware Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.
