Classifieds Advert Error

[Lippy Kid]

I've just placed an ad in the classifieds, and all is well except that for some weird reason, someone elses profile has been linked to my name at the bottom of the ad, where the contact details are.

Could one of the lovely admin chaps change it so that it links to my profile instead please?


Thank you kindly

Can you report the ad?
Ask the mods via that link.

Thanks for the suggestion - I've done just that.

Which ad? I can't find any under your forum e-mail.

Have updated it, but beware the account you were linked with before had qualified for free adverts and your forum account does not (since you registered after 1st January 2009).

Sorry about that, but we'll be pushing forward the date in the future so you'll soon qualify again.

Also, it will take a few hours for the changes to take effect.

Thanks very much.

I did wonder why I had managed to get a free advert, but it didn't click that SillyMan's profile link was the reason.

Starnge though, any idea how it happened?

I can't give you a specific reason, but I would imagine the most likely scenario to be that someone just put in a member ID to the wrong account.
