It looks like there's 162 things for sale/wanted...etc.

I highly doubt those 162 posts, no matter what they are paying, generate much income.

there's 809 members here. That's not a huge load on a forum depending on where it's hosted.

I'm sure there's a viable reason why the FS forum is setup the way it is but my point in posting my opinion was to let the owner(s) know I'm not using the FS forum and the reason why. If it went back to just a regular forum interface I'd pay attention.
