    Well, I could have been a complete dick and reported him for non-compliance of the location requirement.
    Had he gone through all of the steps instead of simply clicking "Next" he would know these things.

    I'm not arguing with the For Sale forum requirement. Introduction subforum is mostly worthless though. Guy says "Hi," 150 forum members say "Hi, welcome." New member, in most cases, never visits that thread again.

    I just took care of the 'for sale' post requirement - sorry about the oversight.

    How is opposing racism and other forms of collectivism 'trolling'?

    I am not trying to offend anyone, but the truth is more important than concerns over disturbing anyone's sensibilities. If anyone wishes to discuss matters of substance in a civilized manner, I am always open to considering opposing points of view. I have long been of the opinion that what is said is far more relevant that who says it.

    Should someone take pride in being the only race that can be discriminated against legally? I never said I take pride in my race although I should. I said " I'm never going to be ashamed of myself for being white."

    Actually, the location requirement is a board-wide requirement, not just for trade.

    I'm pretty sure my first post here was to sell something, and I never made an intro thread either, seems as though the newer folks here think it's a requirement to say "hi".

    Only because everyone tells them to go introduce themselves.

    "Should someone take pride in being the only race that can be discriminated against legally? I never said I take pride in my race although I should. I said " I'm never going to be ashamed of myself for being white.":

    Race, being beyond one's control, is not properly a matter of either pride or shame.

    It is certainly true that political correctness and anti-white racism have created many problems - flawed 'reasoning' usually does.

    As far as official (government) discrimination being 'legal', it most certainly is not - the Constitution was amended to guarantee equal (not special) protection for all citizens, any statute, ordinance or regulation to the contrary is, in fact, not law, but mere usurpation and attempts to enforce said edicts should result in severe penalties for those oath-breakers who attempt said enforcement as well as the oath-breakers who promulgated them in the first place. In fact, I feel that 'Justice' Sotomayor is NOT qualified to sit on the Supreme Court precisely because of her racism. She served on the board of directors of a racist organization, whose very name translates as, "The Race."

    Hi, my name is SideShow Bob, and I am an.....Ooops, sorry wrong group.
    Try being a mixed race individual, not white enough to to accepted by the white boys and not ethnic enough to be accepted by the race that is not white in your genetic makeup.
    So you end up at odds with everyone.

    Back when you joined it also was not a requirement to post your location in your profile. Seasons change and so do we.

    The intro thing is just a courtesy.
