Just as the title says. The ammo deals thread was locked due to "rules" violations and posting local ammo sources to not be considered "tech". However, discussing who has stockpiled the most ammo, what Walmarts in specific have ammo and telling everyone what ammo you have bought for the week IS considered technical discussion. Since it can't seem to survive there without a mod going ballistic, will it survive here or is it a lost cause?

Only reason I ask is a lot of people benifit from threads like that, more so than the threads where people post how many ammo cans they have stacked up.

Discuss.

I thought it was locked because people kept taking deals straight to slickguns?

Knock yourself out.  Those threads have been started in GD before, there's absolutely no rule against them.

But I figure you already knew that, right?

I did not; it was a legit question. Any chance of a thread being tacked in GD like it was in the ammo forum?

There is little rhyme or reason to whether a thread gets locked.  

Much of is subjective.  Majic 8 ball says you will be safe, but...  There are no guarantees.

why would it be here and not be in the ammo section? Isn't that the point of that forum?

The ammo forum is what brought me to arfcom to start with.

I mean I see what was done there.

Honest answer...

It may not get locked. However, any true "deals" posted will also get posted on slick. The ammo will be oos in minutes. Then you will be back to fighting for overpriced scraps. If you want to focus on local sources then the HTF section would be a good place.

I policed that old Ammo Availability thread for a while - sending PMs to the fucking idiots and telling them to follow the most basic of instructions and read/follow the thread title, but noooooo, they were having none of it. The fucking '13ers ruined it for everyone and wonder why they're reviled here.
