OK, it has been brought to out attention that at least two members of this forum appeared to only be members of this board so they can ask other people for information on bending machines that they are immediately going to go and sell on ebay. A few posts have had to be deleted as it was getting ridiculous, especially the 'how do i bend a speak&spell and wheres the best place to sell it' thread which some of you may have noticed a week or so ago
While we are certainly into the exchange of informataion and have nothing against selling items on ebay as we sell stuff ourselves, the purpose of this forum and the Tips pages on the site is to help people build machines to make interesting music or just generally cool electronics stuff, not to help people make money churning out stuff on ebay.
This isn't designed to offend anyone and its not aimed at anyone currently on the forum as the members in question have been removed but i'm sure we'd all appreciate it if you have an ebay sellers ID you could head over to the circuitbending discussion thread HERE and list it. Feel free to also put a link to your ebay 'items for sale page' and you could end up selling more stuff. This could also stop people bidding against each other as i know i must have bid against people on this forum on items that ended up being sent to circuitbenders anyway. Whoops!
We really don't like having to be the fascist bending police here but if it becomes obvious that anyone is just leeching information from this forums community so they can sell circuitbent machines on ebay without declaring their ebay ID here or actually contributing to the forum, then they will have their membership removed and their IP will be blocked.
