Reading of the forum rules

Forum Rules?
I apologise if I have infringed upon the Forum rules although I have had a look at them and am unsure where the problem might be?

3. Requests to identify...
3. Requests to identify objects are welcome as long as the object isbelieved to be modern, post-modern or contemporary (no antiques). You mayask for help identifying an object?s designer, producer, period, style, material etc. ? but not its commercial value. This forum is not a free valuation service.

Don't be thrown off to the forum by shit responses like that of retrolampguy. Some feel the need to jump on new people here in order to sound witty (I am guilty of it as well). I never read the forum rules when I first joined so don't worry about it. The response you should have received should have been something like this:
Most here will not provide you with appraisals. The best thing that you can do to determine the "value" of your item is to check COMPLETED Ebay auction. It is not enough to just check the completed listings as people can ask what ever they want so you need to tick off "SOLD" as well when doing the Ebay search. Other venues would be to check Liveauctioneers, reviewing past auctions.

Q. What do you get when you cross the DNA of a goat and the DNA of a human?
