[ Outline ] · Standard · Linear+ Paypal as a gift

[Tarasadie17]

Sending Paypal as gift is not allowed at TCC. Despite the fact that we have posted this many, many times and it is listed as prohibited in our site rules we are still seeing requests for Paypal as a gift almost everyday... and these requests are often coming from established members.

Paypal is a company that provides a service, a service that they charge for. If you are going to use their service to purchase items here at TCC, you are expected to pay to use it. You would expect no less if you were providing a service for someone.

Effective immediately, any request for Paypal as a gift will result in a suspension of a minimum of 30 days.

Spread the word to your fellow TCC'ers, because pleading ignorance will not reduce the suspension.

Thank You,
Michael

On second thought, I guess I would tend to think a suspension even for new members was ok if there was a clear message sent to new members of how/where to find the rules. Or perhaps this particular rule is one that should be added to the "Marketplace Guidelines", so that all members HAVE to at least have it on their screen before they can post in the different marketplace forums.
