why all the pm/text me for photos posts?

[straightrazorguy]

I've been on other forums where you can't list an item unless you post a picture of the item with your name and the name of the forum on it, to make sure you're the one in possession of the goods, and the goods are to be sold on that forum. FS threads without photos get deleted by the mods.

The "lazy" argument is lame. I don't even look at "for sale" posts with no pictures...
