the rules were made necessary by the flood of people [many years ago, now] who only wanted to sell for profit without ever contributing anything useful to our community. also, in far too many cases they were taking advantage of the number of new quilters here and charging reeeediculous prices to people they knew wouldn't know they were being overcharged.

it shouldn't seem too much to ask that people make a meaningful contribution to QB content before they want to sell something. after all, we are not a marketplace site. we are a "share information and show-off-our-work" site. :-)
