Selling section for the non-hobbyists among us

to prevent too much commercial products entering the buy/sell/trade section wouldn't it be nice to be able to direct them to a separate selling section?

Only if they subscribe or otherwise contribute to PL, otherwise it's just more unwelcome spam in my "What's New" search.

Define non-hobbyist.

let's start to say the ones that tend not to build but only sell stuff

**taggalucci** · 02-22-2012, 04:14

...and then there are those that build specifically to sell stuff!

**michelrietveld** · 02-23-2012, 01:47

yes, very thrue, so my suggestion doesn't make sense at all ;-) but i hope you understand what i am trying to say

Noun 1. hobbyist - a person who pursues an activity in their spare time for pleasure

So a non-hobbyist must be someone who pursues an activity they do not enjoy in their paid working time.

That describes a lot of people...

Then there is that fine line for Hobbyists that also sell commercial products....
There can't really be that many Commercial only products sellers here that
they would require their own section...

I could then see an influx of Asian sellers bombarding the Forum...

Well it felt like that a couple of months ago Jerry!

I agree... on other Forums the same thing was happening...

But to open a Forum Section just for them would be like
putting out the Welcome Mat...
