Thread recycling!! Legal or Not? (in General)

Hmm, I've noticed several posts where people have continually sold different items yet used the same post continuously. once the item is sold they post another item in the same thread, over and over.. is this legal? or are they abusing the system? one example of this is "FS:50k Executioner's Sword" By Cranium where he's already sold 2 exec's posted at different time's and is now trying to sell an Compound he just posted there. -----------------------------
I would like this clarified buy Jon or some Admin with clout so I know whether or not to do it myself.

In quick defence, I don't see it as 'illegal' any ware...

I have not really been paying attention to the fs/wtb threads or I would have said something sooner. Thread recycling is a way of avoiding paying the fs/wtb fee, and is not allowed.

Oh, Making 2 seperate posts for the already sold exec, and the fs compound, It didn't have anything to do with the fees, as I can afford them, just laziness to make a new thread.

I wasn't doing this to pick on you Cranium, just wanted some clarification since i saw several doing it, yours was just the latest and the one i remembered.

my view on it would be that if the sale is completely ended then make a new post.

but if you are still auctioning something and adding an item wouldn't be that bad (but thats my opinion)
