I know we went to the new Classifieds a while ago because we had posts that were never removed after items were sold, but I am finding that the current setup doesn't really yield any satisfactory results. Most people I talk with don't even check the classified section on a regular basis and have no idea what items are for sale.
It falss into that "out of sight, out of mind" category.
Could we go back to having a Classified / For Sale Forum, but put restrictions on it that will make it more server friendly? Set time limits of 15 or 30 days for the post and have the post deleted at the end of the time frame - or have the seller relist. We scroll the posts when we SEE them, and not seeing the classifieds means most people don't even look at them.
