What you cannot do and how to get around it:
1. Promote your Sales thread more than once every 24 hours, this includes putting an advert or coupon style text underneath your response to a question or responding to an order confirmation.
In short you can not promote in any way your Sales Thread more than once every 24 hours.
2. Do not respond with "Thank You" use the thank you button for this.
Why Was My BuySellServices Thread Denied?
Having a services thread is a privilege, not a right, staff are under no obligation to approve any thread.
If you do not receive a response from the staff after two weeks, assume that your thread has been denied. We do not discuss the reasons for denied threads, so don't PM asking, this will not get your thread approved.
Don't post if you are not a buyer.
It's simple if you have never used a service you can't comment on how it works / how effective it is. We ask all thread creators to report any unreasonable posts to a mod where they will be reviewed. If you are found to be using this service unreasonably you will be banned.
Don't request trials / review copies.
The op will post the number of review / trial copies they are willing to give away, if any, and will provide the criteria they require to get a review / trial copy (often these are only for VIP accounts).
Thanks and Regards

For Your Marketplace Thread:
- You must have VIP status.
- You must be free from bans and infractions (subject to moderator approval).
- Your product/service must comply with all KMF rules,
- Your thread should include clear contact and refund policies.
- Your product and service must be of quality and priced reasonably. KMF staff will be the sole arbiters of this.
- Anyone who is controlling or perceived to be controlling a marketplace thread / working on a JV with you must have the required VIP status to do so.
If the above applies please complete the next set of steps:
- Chose the Marketplace section that describes your service and create your thread. Images will be held on a third party server, imgur.com or imageshack.us. We have done this in order to speed up the forum, improve page loads and avoid unapproved changes to threads.
- Once you have created your thread, it will go into a moderation queue. You will receive a pm with a link to manage the approval process which will then be picked up by a KMF Admin/mod. Make sure your thread is a final edit. Once you have submitted your thread, changes can be made by PM'ing Admin/mod.
- You are no longer required to send a PM to a Admin/MOD stating you have listed a sales thread. You will be contacted by them when they are ready to review your sales thread. This will normally be within 24-48 working hours.
- A Moderator will then review your service, you must provide the top level package or service described in your thread. If you are unable to provide this your thread won't be approved.
- Wait patiently to hear back from the staff regarding your sales thread, use the thread to respond to the mod within the review process, If your thread is approved you will be pm'd and asked to pay a $20* listing fee. NOTE the live thread will be cleared of all previous messages from the review process and set live on the marketplace forum you created.
- Do not try to jump the queue for Marketplace approvals. PM titles such as 'REPLY ASAP!!!!', 'URGENT URGENT URGENT', or anything similar will not gain you favor with the staff. Similarly, sending multiple messages or spamming skype will only give a negative impression of your professionalism. Don't do it!

Members found to be bumping their thread (deleting a post and then reposting it AND / OR placing consecutive posts within a 72 hour period) will receive a 1 month ban and their Marketplace thread(s) will be removed.
