Default For sale section

Whats with the **** jockeys who think they have to list every individual item they have for sale in a seperate thread, dominating the section making it a right pain in the **** browsing looking for parts.

Monster Energy you are a t wat my friend!

I like the fact he's done two seperate threads for ABS sensors, offside and nearside. It's not ebay munchkin.

Wait until he starts bumping the threads back up, I wish one of the mods would combine all his threads.

You're right though, no need to list things in separate threads, that's just greedy. Just list them all in one post and try and make your title eye catching

Your wish is my command (although the one thread now looks really messy )

I have also posted a message to the specific user concerned to ask him to combine his threads, not post individually, then I can clean it all up a bit more.

Additionally, I have posted a sticky in the parts section to ask members to post multiple items in one thread, or in the breaking section if it is a whole car (if I'm allowed to keep it), as per the rules. Hopefully this may help resolve this problem, if not, all I can suggest is to continue to RTM anyone not adhering to this request.

I see the rules have been changed today:

Avoid creating lots of separate threads for individual parts.

If they are all from the same (or similar) car, advertise a list of the parts in a single thread with an appropriate title (eg: Suspension parts for MY99 STi). Users found creating too many multiple threads in one go may have them merged into a single thread. This is to prevent one single user from hogging the entire page of the sales section and make it fairer for users selling single items.

OOPS me and my twitchy fingers 2 pages isn't good lol
Don't you think it would still be a good idea for a traders sales column and Joe public column. with me not only being the village idiot on here its going to always happen.
A separate sales column would surely make your jobs essayer,

Having ago at my spellings also my grammar,
Is like a dyslexic dwarf
Its not big and its not clever

Slab, i think you have missed the point of this thread.....It was about some muppet who posted a separate thread for every item he had for sale, even down to the smallest of parts. In doing so nearly every thread in the for sale section within half hour or so belonged to him.
