vbBux points for classified ads

How do I use vbBux points to buy access to post ads in "For Sale" forum?

I'm locked out from posting in the "For Sale" forum again for 28 days. I didn't know salon owners were restricted.

Re: vbBux points for classified ads

They aren't as far as I know. I think it is just something to keep people from posting multipule ads within a certain time frame. PM Matt and I'm sure he can fix it!

Re: vbBux points for classified ads

Salon owners are restricted to 1 "For Sale" ad a month unless a $34.95 recurring monthly subscription is paid. $419.40 per year. It's cheaper to sell on eBay.

A competing award winning tanning salon owner discussion forum allows salon owners unrestricted posting of "for sale" ads.

The tantalk for sale ad subscription page shows that a subscription can be purchased for 100 vbBux points but that option is apparently disabled. It would be a good idea to bring it back.

What's wrong with lots of ads? In the discussion forum business, Content (including "for sale" ads) is King. Restricting content is just plain dumb. Inhibiting member participation is dumb.

Another dumb idea is prohibiting a salon owner from posting that he is looking for a product to buy. Restricting the secondary marketplace hurts salon owners.

It all stinks like a vendor protection racket.

Of course, anything goes if the site owners get a piece of the action. That's the definition of racketeering.
