Ok, I thought I would post these issues that I have with the Sale/Trade section and get some feedback from the rest of the members.
1) Give members the ability to edit their posts.
The reason for this issue is because its annoying to make a thread with all of what you have and want, and the only way you can provide people with updates is to make another post in that thread. So when people start reading the thread later on, they have to read the entire thing just to know what is left or is still wanted. I know this is sort of trivial, but I figure it could be worth looking into.
2) Make it a rule (like pretty much every other messageboard has) that says you cannot advertise your stuff in someone else's thread.
I won't point a finger, but this has happened recently to 2 of my threads and like 3-4 others. Someone comes in, makes an offer, and then creates a hugeE post about what they have to offer everyone else and what they are looking for. This annoys me the most as its rude, disrespectful, and takes away from the original posters deals.
Let me know what you all think about these issues/concerns.
