I think it is great, I am curious though have the complainers ever bought from anyone in here?
Its a little differant, big deal. W/ a little time it will be normal routine again....
The goal here is unity guys and gals, no need to get ugly and take each others heads off.
Hats off to the Web host and the mods for such a nice site...Thanks

OH, I can assure you Kieth and I have bought numerous things from this site

Inyourdraft2000 · February 18, 2007, 12:27:53 AM

lol,so I guess your one of the ones complaining,,,,,

dynodon · February 18, 2007, 09:35:13 AM

NOT complaining, Just dont like the "new format" is all.
If you read the previous post, you would see that.
I do appreciate the hard work Bones put into the change. I used to find myself surfing through the " sale" section everytime I logged on , just to see whats there, or if anything really caught my eye. But now, I just dont do that. Just voicing my opinion

Well, as usual you can not have an opinion or your complaining. I did not vote early on because until you see it, you do not know if you will like it. I prefer the old format to this one. I do not look at all the sections and some have multiple items listed. I do buy and sell from the classified section also.

No ones taking each others heads off.In fact your the one calling us complainers and questioning whether we bought from here or not and mad mudder is the one saying I should have voiced my opinion earlier without researching to see that I did and then says he wasn't talking to me?

even though he was responding to my post? Go back and reread my original post.It was to get others opinions as to whether they liked it or not. A simple yes or no and why would suffice.No need to label people, accuse them of being lazy or question their use of the section.That's not what the thread was intended for. Like I stated in the first post, I think it's perfect for some just not for me. Like the format or not it's FREE which is greatly appreciated. Just in case your still curious I too have bought and sold many things off this site just like Don and customrubicon and will continue to do so but I still like the old way better.

now that is a good idea, i have a couple cars and trailers on here right now and dont feel like im getting the response i did in the past when I sold stuff on the old format

MadMudder · February 18, 2007, 08:34:02 PM

That is what im proposing. The serious people can do what they need to do and the few pilfers can be spared the second click.

Inyourdraft2000 · February 18, 2007, 08:37:55 PM

Ok,ok, Complainers was a little harsh, and your right you do have an opinion.
The change is not that old and it just seems no one is holding back to even give it a chance to grow on them....I see sometimes alot of rediculous things trying to get sold here and I thought it was cool to seperate everything so you can get right to the point of what you are looking for.
I have been watching out for a 4 wheeler and a trailer on here for the last year and have had to filter through things that were getting bumped every day for attention that in my opinion didn't warrant any.
But its all good w/ me, I didn't want to get involved w/ any heated debate or anything...

Dont forget to tell all your friends about MAY 19th

I got ya. I can see both sides.I can live with it either way as long as it stays free.LOL. If it does stay the way it is now with everything having it's own section then how about a "WILL TRADE" section? For example an add may say " will trade 2000 400 ex for john boat" or " will trade brand new washer dryer combo for big screen tv" I'm don't have these items these are just examples. What do you think good or bad idea?

dynodon · February 18, 2007, 09:59:36 PM

I like that idea !!!!!

I can live with it thr way it is also, I just liked it better the old way

cutngrs · February 18, 2007, 10:15:12 PM

well here you go dyno don is like a brother to me but i personly like the new for sale format it allows for your item to stay on the front page a little longer and not get bump three pages back because every body trying to keep there listing on the front page and is a lot easer to find stuff that just my 2 cents

Inyourdraft2000 · February 19, 2007, 07:43:38 PM

Dang bro, I had to read your post 2x's, I was about to go unplug my washer and dryer for the Big Screen TV. It pays to reread post around here.....

If the Will trade section happens it will probably be the most viewed section on here.
Need to start making a list now.

dynodon · February 19, 2007, 07:53:15 PM

punctuation and spelling are NOT top priority here !!! Sometimes a post may have to be read 3 or 4 times.

I say GREAT idea to the "trade for" section !!!!! What do you think Bones ??
I know, I know, MORE work right !?!?!?!

MadMudder · February 19, 2007, 10:09:33 PM

Na the hard part was movin everything to the board it needs to be on. All he would have to do is make another child board.

What do you mean by make another child board?

dynodon · February 20, 2007, 07:00:50 PM

Clam down Kieth !!!!!! I almost took it that way too !!, What he meant was, look at the racing section, where Bones started a new catagory for C&R, and the flat track guys. Thats listed as a " child board"

Thanks for keeping me from putting my foot in my mouth Don.LOL.

mrbones · February 20, 2007, 08:17:44 PM

lol, some me PM'd me awhile back asking if all the child boards were for children. I have since changed them to "Sub Categories".

I give on up on this tech support. No one there can seem to comprehend my question or the basis for needing a master listing.

dynodon · February 27, 2007, 01:25:31 PM

Thanks for the try anyway Bones !!!!!!!

We can live with it the way it is, Dont get us wrong !!!!!
