  • A Suzo stick is a joy forever...
I think the current Buy/Sell/Trade section is really cluttered. If I want to see what's for sale I have to go through a load of WTB threads. And the other way around.

Also, not everybody keeps to the standard "WTB" and "FS" format which makes things worse.

All other arcade related forums that I visit have this separation and it really makes good sense.

So, let's hear it ! :D

not enough WTBs to split em, however I think maybe a vendor subsection.......
If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

Subsections get ignored... not exactly helpful for vendors.

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

I vote no. The current setup allows me to see things for sale AND things people want to buy. I wouldn't visit a WTB board as much as a FS board.
