1. Trade/Sale section is hidden until a user reaches a certain number of posts in the other areas of the board. User gets a warning if posts to reach number are "spam".
2. Have a sticky in the trade/sale section with links to PayPal calculator and other resources. Also in this sticky, a trade/sale template. Brian at TapersSection created one for that community and looks really nice. I have used it a few times and takes most everything that comes up in a trade/sale into account.

I know it is a pain in the arse, but this is a forum for discussion; and in reality it's a topic that is common and probably a concern to a lot. If you stayed clear of the vault threads and the what's up on ebay thread, you'd have much less dramas...Kaber wrote:Two things:
Can we have a Rant and Rave section where folks can post their 'haven't got x' / 'have got x' posts
and mods delete those kind of posts elsewhere
If you want folks to use database maybe the whats up on eBay thread should go?
Seeing the same post over and over again is dull - it is not discussion - folks may be posting about the quality of the releases - but such gems for discussion are being lost and you can't see the wood for the trees.love_islander wrote:I know it is a pain in the arse, but this is a forum for discussion; and in reality it's a topic that is common and probably a concern to a lot.
