News and Announcements / New Forum: Hot Topics

« on: February 11, 2005, 01:04:01 PM »

Fanlistings Chit-Chat has always been a popular forum and the pinned threads were starting to take over the first page!  To fix this we've created a new "Hot Topics" sub-forum for those super active "hot" threads.  You will now find the "Latest Approvals", "Wishlist FLs" and similar threads in this new forum.

You are not allowed to create new topics, but you can reply to the current ones as you normally would.  New topics will be added/moved by Senior Staff when they turn "hot."

Goods for Auction/Trade/Sale / Please read before posting!

« on: December 02, 2004, 05:17:14 PM »

Please DO NOT become a board member just to post in this forum!
This is a fanlistings message board, not a goods/trading board, and this forum exists as a convenience to active board members ONLY. Anyone signing up here just to post in this forum will be warned or banned, and their topic deleted upon discovery.

This forum was created so that existing members can advertise anime/manga-related goods they are selling, either privately or on auction! To that end, we would like to impose some formatting guidelines, to help people viewing your announcement to find the information they need. Please read these guidelines carefully, as sloppy or vague posts may be deleted, if a Senior Staffer feels that nobody can figure out what you're trying to advertise!

For starters, please title your post:
Auction / Trade / Direct Sale : Type of Goods, Series

Include the following information in your post:

• Auction, Trade or Direct Sale? (What type of transaction is it?)
  
• Series, Manufacturer or Publisher. (ex: One Piece DVD, Ribon furoku, Bandai models)
  
• Type of Goods. (ex: Pull-pack cards, gashapon, shitajiki)
  
• Price and Payment Methods Accepted.
  
• If an auction, please provide a link to the auction, and the ending date.
• If a trade, please provide links to your trade/extras/want lists -- try not to post them here unless absolutely necessary..!!
• Your contact information. Don't forget to mention how to get in touch with you if interested! Include an email address where people can contact you for further details, or to complete a transaction.
  

ABSOLUTELY NO BOOTLEG PRODUCTS ALLOWED. This is to protect you, your buyer and ourselves from legal action. Any topics found to contain bootleg items will be deleted, and the poster will be warned.

Please note: The Anime Fanlistings Network is not responsible for loss of money or items, or any complications resulting from any transaction advertised in this forum. This forum is for advertising purposes only, and all transactions are taken at your own risk. Caveat emptor!

We hope this new forum will be useful to you, have fun!

To that end, we would like to impose some formatting guidelines, to help people viewing your announcement to find the information they need. Please read these guidelines carefully, as sloppy or vague posts may be deleted, if a Senior Staffer feels that nobody can figure out what you're trying to advertise!

For starters, please title your post:
Event Name: Date, Location

Include the following information in your post:

• Event Name
  
• Location (be specific, provide directions if needed)
  
• Dates and Times

News and Announcements / ATTN: ALL FL Applicants

« on: October 25, 2004, 04:39:06 PM »

As we noticed many of you disregarding this rule, in regards to today's large Character/Items removal, we thought a friendly reminder was in order:

You may only apply for SIX (6) subjects at a time, in any category. We noticed some of you sending in 10-30 applications at once, which of course is in violation of the above. This has ALWAYS been a rule in all A/M categories at TFL.org, and has not changed since we moved to the new network.

As such, all applications staffers are allowed to ignore and DELETE any further applications received from you, once this limit has been reached. If you sent in ten, expect that #8-10 will be deleted. This is to prevent what we've seen today: a total saturation of applications and an inundated staffer.

Edit: Please note, all staffers have been instructed to wait one week, to allow those individuals who sent in over six applications to contact them and specify which applications are to be kept, and which to discard. Since the error was on our end, we feel this is a suitable compromise. This only applies to this specific set of applications -- if you send in twenty applications in a month or so, your excess apps will be disregarded as is standard.

Thank you for your attention, and compliance with this long-standing rule!
