Problems in the for sale section.
thermidorthelobster:
This has been gone over a few times now.
The change of setup is because some people on the forums were ignoring the rules and continually bumping their For Sale posts; also there were complaints from people whose threads were hijacked, or who got unhelpful comments along the lines of "no way is it worth that much", etc etc. This took up a lot of admin time from your friendly bunch of moderators.
After much moderator discussion it was decided to try this method out instead, hopefully to make everybody's lives easier.
There was no vote, because it's the moderators who have to manage the site on a daily basis. But rest assured it was discussed at length. I would imagine if there WERE a vote, many people would like it back the way it was, but then that wouldn't actually solve the problems that came up in the first place.
As always, if you don't like the way the forum is run, you're very welcome to use For Sale forums elsewhere.

why change it because of a few people.
thats what this gov'mnt is doing with byways. is it right? no.
i reckon you try it again how it used to be... just a try... no harm done, just try it. maybe it will work this time?
maybe even put in the rules for selling no unhelpful comments or something, i dont know that bit is up to you.
tryieys?

Ok.
If people are ignoring the rules then have a 3 strikes and your out rule.
Dont penalise the masses for the sake of a few individuals.
And as for the you can always go else where theory, well maybe i will and that attitude is very arrogant.
May be we should have a vote? on the Moderators.
It stinks of the L.R.O., they used to be very arrogant and do as i say not as i do attitude.
Please dont spoil an otherwise excellent site.
If i have caused offence and a bit of debate then i`m glad.
Well i am a shop steward.

The seller won't know you've replied on here if he doesn't log in or read his email.
A PM will go to his EMAIL inbox, as will a reply. Please expain the difference to me? You could ALSO email the seller.
I see no point in a long thread of people saying PM sent, or asking questions irrelevent to the other members.
Poll if you like - but as a seller I react to PM's/Emails over posts on a reply......
Jay -just so you know - LRO is run by a MAGAZINE (i.e a BUSINESS). Mud club is run by volunteers. There *is* a difference.
