Classifieds suggestions

[The Driver]

I don't want the direction of this thread to go toward hammering atank for supposed necroposting. He's putting in an incredible amount of energy and personal time organizing the Classifieds at the behest of admin and for the benefit of all. This is a temporary irritation at most and needs to be done before any structural changes could be made anyway.

Roger that. atank, stepped up to the plate, BIG TIME!

Keep the feedback coming! If we can streamline something we can always revisit it !

We already have marker headings for NA, NB, NC, and NA+NB So that part would remain the same.

In the beginning everyone wanted iTrader, so that was the FIRST thing we wanted to do for everyone.

I see DK's point. The way we are using the internet continues to change. I can see one "For Sale or Trade" section without subsections being easier for browsing. I think putting the generation (or universal) identifier in the header is probably enough but generation sub-forums may be helpful if the volume picks up.

Just so we're clear, I'm certainly not hammering him for what he's doing. Just saying my opinions, I know he's been pretty active and if I'm a little blunt, it's not because a goal is to chip at someone. Better be straight to the point


Anyway, I know the generation specific header is already in place so I figured that wouldn't need to change. As for the generation specific sections, I also like the idea of eventually moving towards that once volume picks up.

Also...... what are the odds of getting an RSS feed of the FS section? That... would... be....... DOPE. Especially since I'm pretty sure most of the other forums wouldn't have that.

I know you're not but one comment can cascade into a bunch of off-topic whine-assing so just trying to nip it in the bud. It's okay to be blunt as long as its metered and to the topic.

I generally use the NEW POSTS feature here as this board is smaller than other boards so having the classifieds show up there is a good idea.

Maybe there is a solution for our Threads from the Dead!

[DK Wolf]

Id just have a list of threads that haven't been bumped in three weeks, check on them and if no response within a week close it with a message to pm you if they want it opened.

I'm also one for a minimalist approach, I like the idea of one inclusive FS section with NA/NB/NC identifiers. It just makes it easier to browse that way IMO.

I would like to see the FS section tuned into one overall section. Much easier to see everything at once instead of having to open more windows/tabs or going back a few pages.

1 Section, for sure...this has been the only downfall I've seen...

[★ revlimiter ★]

1 section for whole cars, 1 for parts - any kind, and a 3rd section for wheels?

[ScratchNSniff]

I wouldnt even keep them separate IMO...if the time comes and the volume is there may be something to consider down the road...

[SM16RMSM]

Keep parts in one and cars in the other. I would consider wheels as parts. Sounds very reasonable.
