It's obvious there are those of us here promoting responsible reefkeeping, and some who treat the online community like their own personal Craigslist alternative. I would like to suggest the FS forum rules be refined to discourage exclusive use of the selling forum. This site was founded to promote certain values of the hobby. It should not be allowed solely as a source of income for members who provide nothing of value back to the community. It's not difficult and costs nothing to participate on the forum. If someone has enough time to spend selling stuff, they have enough time to join conversations, help answer others questions, provide input to ongoing discussions, toss up a link to something cool, or occasionally post updates on their tank threads. If someone is clearly just here to sell, perhaps it's time to put the kebosh on that activity or start charging them to do so, or perhaps some other option? Just one beard's opinion. Discuss?
