Come on Lar,
I think we can all see the difference between posting a message saying XX
parts now in my brinklink store, and a link to an image that shows a
valuable building technique which also states in the image (and not in the
original posting) that the parts are available at his bricklink store.

It's just like making a posting about something, which as part of my
signature block has a link to my Lego website, which in turn has a link to
my bricklink store.

I appreciate that no-one wants the type of messages that appear in
.brickshops or .auctions flooding .trains, but I think Brams posting had
valuable tips for all of us interested in a better model 10020.

Just my 2c worth.

I knew you were gonna yell at me...

I see no yelling. Merely gentle guidance.

but I figured the original post was

(off topic)

in trains, can't hurt to port one extra message there

(because I got away with the first one?)

to keep everything
in the same place.  Instead we now have three off-topic messages...

Four.

FUT admin.general since you seem to have an issue with gentle guidance on
this. Your original message was off topic for .trains and a followup post
saying merely "I sold out" was even more clearly off topic.

Unless you think you get a special pass on this for some reason. Take it • up
with the admins since my guidance has failed.

(...) Which is why the original post, which had on topic aspects, got merely a ribbing. I whould have hoped that Bram was enough of a thought leader to connect the dots (where his purely market relatd followup should go) without an explicit warning. (...)
