Bait sales ?????

At last some sense.

Thank You Liam & Paddlesac.

KeithB I do talk sense as most people who know me will vouch for me all I asked was a simple question about bait as on a previous post about Facebook I said there are pro,s and cons on each site meaning bait sales on other sites
To me asking this question was hopeing for a sensible reply which I don't think I've been given but thanks for your input

I was referring to the fishing related canary etc etc mate.

I appreciate you asked a genuine question, I replied straight away with what I think is the reason. Thinking back there was also a lot of trouble regarding sales of crab so it was stopped, and only sales of worm were allowed. Then eventually all bait was stopped.

Quote from the rules:

"There will be no bait selling of any kind, it was restricted to worm but now it includes everything bait related."

I also appreciate comments made on this and the Facebook thread about the days when the site had a more "active" admin team.

Sadly Jim (willyweteg) was ill and hasn't been on the forum for years, the other admin (Elton) is obviously a very busy man and some of the moderators interests in fishing have dwindled so they aren't as active.

Having to moderate the arguments caused by football "banter" is bad enough without reintroducing bait selling.


So yes, the site has changed but at least it's still here. .

Cheers KeithB the answer given about the history of worm/crab is enough for me
Ps have a good night and you will need more mods when the football season starts
Up the toon lol

Fair enough with the explanation on bait sales.

I’m assuming that quote/rule is an old one…I’d like to see bait sold on NESA, so could I formally request (or even suggest) that the position is reconsidered?
Appreciate its nothing of great importance and no toys thrown out pram if the answers no, but can the question be officially put to Elton/other mods please?

And while you’re on, a few more mods wouldn’t be a bad thing in my opinion especially if the bait selling position is reversed. Not that you are doing a bad job Keith, the moderation team just seems a bit thin on the ground.

EDIT: I've created a thread in the moderator area, pasted your request and asked for any thoughts.

I'll let you know if any feedback is received.

If you wish you could still contact Elton directly, pm or email.

Nice one Keith,
At least the question is being properly asked now. Will await response and if it’s a no then the issue can be put to bed.
