Has Your Ad Been Locked Or Deleted???

If your ad is locked or gone (in the trash), it is because you violated one or more of the Equipment Exchange rules. The EE mods have two options: lock or delete, at the mods' discretion.

If you've just discovered that your ad has been locked for an EE rule violation, have no fear. Your ad is still visible to potential buyers and your IM and e-mail features still work but no further posts can be made and the automatic feedback system will not work.

After 72 hours have passed from the time of the lock, you may request that your ad be unlocked. Depending on the rule that was broken, it will be up to the discretion of the mod who locked your ad whether it will be unlocked or whether you will be given permission to repost the ad. DO NOT REPOST A LOCKED AD WITHOUT OBTAINING PERMISSION FIRST! Not doing so will result in the new ad being trashed and a temporary suspension of your EE priviliges. If you have such a request concerning an ad, just send an IM to one of the EE moderators/staffers, and BE SURE TO INCLUDE A LINK TO THE AD! It's time-consuming for us to have to search for your locked ad when you don't provide a link.

If your ad has been deleted, you may repost it after 72 hours, on the condition that you follow all rules. Please read the Equipment Exchange Rules here: http://www.ar15.com/content/page.html?id=301 to discover why your previous ad was deleted before reposting.
