Reverting back to conventional For Sale and Wanted threads

Post by Gannon » Fri Nov 02, 2012 8:44 pm

I'd like to propose we ditch the current system and just have a post with a set of rules like we used to. I've noticed that a For Sale thread can have many replies, but only the owner can view them. Makes it hard to keep track if items have been sold, what's left of a wreck, if somebody has found a wanted part.

Discuss....

Agreed, that's how it is on Ozfoz and Offroadsuabrus.com. Works well..

Un-sure if its hard to do or not though.

It also saves threads from years ago being bumped up.

I mentioned a couple of years ago I hated it, It's the most nonsensical load of bullshit I've ever seen on a forum....Rant over.

So the support for change is pretty much unanimous
Is a Brett likely to see this thread, or should I contact him directly?
