Clarification on policy - or lack thereof- regarding claiming items for sale in Classifieds

Classifieds is now being pruned on a regular basis, to discourage the low-life thief "farmers" who scan old ads for pigeons. Keeping this thread outside of Classifieds ensures that it won't get pruned.
At the risk of embarrassment Para, I didn’t understand this.
Old ads are removed from Classifieds in order to prevent scammers from searching through those dormant ads in an effort to find members to scam. Because threads are routinely removed from the Classifieds section, any threads posted in that section run the risk of getting deleted once they become inactive.

Therefore, in order for this thread to avoid that risk, I created it outside of Classifieds, in a section of the forum which is not pruned. I then created a shortcut to this thread, in Classifieds, so that it is visible in that section. If you look in Classifieds, you'll see a link to this thread.

Thank you for your work, para. That’s some deep thinking on just that one aspect of Classifieds which is only one of many sections in this forum.


"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.
