I'll agree with Slay.

I never view the for sale area here or would I think of trying to sell something here because the way the FS forum is setup.

I'm not passing judgement on who made it this way.

The FS forum is way to convoluted.

It needs to be like any of the other forums here. Become a member and you can post simply and easily.

If you don't want to take the effort to have to monitor the forum just set the VBulletin to automatically delete any FS items in 30 days.

It's also like that to help tune pay for the site. With as many users that are on here, not too many donate to keep the site alive. From what I understand it's quite pricy for just one guy to pay for while all of us are using it.

I do think it is a little harder to find things that you are looking for in the FS section, but if it has to be that way, I'm not going to complain.

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.

It used to blow, as a forum. You'd have noobs coming on here and diggin up 3 year old revo threads and crap.

Marketplace was nice for a bit, but then it seems that it lost it's popularity and now just sits there without any activity. I still have like 96 credits left after I bought 100 about 6 months ago.

VBulletin can easily trash any for sale posts that are of a specific age, automatically.

Rechargeable that wouldn't hold a charge anymore. Thus..... just as good as used AAs.

JFWY of course.

I do see that you have a crawler now. Little more your speed? Can't launch it into the house though. Your parents must be disappointed.
