for sale/trade board?

Postby OscarFish42680 on Sat Feb 01, 2003 9:49 pm

Ok here's the scoop...Tony and I have been chatting about this and we've came to the conclusion that it's up to the board members whether we have a for sale/trade board. I know that alot of sites have them and they do really well. I know a few of you guys have been talking about one so here's your chance. Vote for it if you want it to happen.

I think it's a good idea,with the amount members on the board now,it may prove helpful.

Classifieds might also be a draw (through search engines and etc..) to increse the amount of members. I can think of a few other good points too
but
Would adding sale/trade board slow down the server? That would the only bad point I could see.

1,000 + members and only 38 views? and only 12 votes? :(

Wheres your input ?

If you want the chance to deal with other members and save money and locate things you can't find locally add your vote if you have some comments,suggestions or questions add them too!

Even if you think it's a horriable waste of time,say so!

I think classifeds would be a great way to attract new and varied members to the site and should not be limited to fish only ads, maybe we could have a fish lover's personals section or something and get some ppl hooked up or something:)

We will probably have to limit it to a fish/fish equiptment only classified section or we might get adds that don't need to be on this site.

seems like it's working again
but if you try to add a picture you get to an error message.


Any way that can be modified? so areas could be left blank? For say,someone doesn't have a set asking price? or isn't sure what condition to mark?or has a wanted add..etc..

I like the style or layout of that but trying to read (popular) posts in the rec. catagories is like trying to do a cross word puzzle ,seems like you try to read the last reply to a post and it reads back like:
red - oldest post
blue - middle post from somewhere
red - old post
black - last reply
red - post from 5 posts ago
red - some unrealted to anything email address's
