Classified Section Closing

[TYSON]

Hey All!

Sorry it's taken me so long to do this but we are closing the classifieds section and moving back to a forum based system.

Please ensure you read the rules at the top of each forum before posting anything in the section.

A word of warning, Trolls will be extinguished on site

Enjoy.

Cheers for the heads up. Will any existing ads have to be resubmitted?

[TYSON]

All of them

[Envy]

How does the forum based bit work? or should i just wait and see?

[Professor Redfern]

No probs with your plans here, but can I ask why? this is what we used to have so what was wrong with the new system?

[Viper]

awesome Tys ... been wondering if we would go back!

Not as much traffic through the classified script equaled less sales for you guys

IMO the current one sux.

unless you specifically go looking in the for sale threads you have no idea what's in there.

now they will show back up as a normal post so more people will get to see it.

bringing back old rules too Tys in regards to posts before people can sell?

[Professor Redfern]

Wasnt the old traffic mainly attributed to trolling and random discussion hence the reason for the change in the first place?

Edit: Ahh yes PSBlive will show it. Good point, I always thought that was annoying that I had to go from live to classified to see new shit pop up.

Not sure yet, as that requires fucking with usergroups and what not and the Corp Supporter rules generally cover those that signup just to sell shit.

I think this is where the TROLL option of banning will come in to effect

ah la cowgirl 10 bumps in 1 day

Yep, but there were still more sales for ads in the forums. Trolling wont be an issue now.

[Professor Redfern]

Ok Tyson you have my endorsement. Carry on (says Redfern with an overinflated sense of self importance)

[Viper]

piss funny!

[Brendon]

Tyson, not sure if its possible, but have you considered making the thread author's able to mod or lock their own for sale thread? Hence resolving trollage without having to annoy the 'normal' mods?

[IGS]

Another (minor) plus is the classifieds section will also appear on forum apps such as Tapatalk.
