I’m guessing you meant “The mecha group explicitly doesn’t welcome auction posts...”

Auction posts are unwelcome in ALL groups unless the group explicitly welcomes them, and .build.mecha doesn’t explicitly welcome them, so I see no problem with Dave’s sentence. And as .build.mecha does not “explicitly not welcome” them, I don’t see why you think that’s what Dave meant.

Well, here’s where I’m confused. It’s really irrelevant whether or not auction posts are welcomed by participants, since they are explicitly unwelcome, as spelled out in the TOS.

They are not explicitly unwelcome in any group charters (that I’m aware of). The unwelcomeness in any particular group is implicit (not explicit) from the overall site TOS, unless explicitly welcomed in the group charter (which is not the case in .build.mecha).

Clear?

I finally had to go back and read the particular TOS. I had assumed that auction spam was flat-out forbidden; it appears that a group can in theory allow such posts (although I have no idea how this would be decided upon).

Thanks,

JOHN
