FS&W posts/Threads

Just thought i would make a little remider to those posting in the FS&W section that, the following is one of the rules

Quote:
To list in the For Sale & Wanted forums, start a new topic for each SET of items you are selling at one time - it is NOT necessary to start a new topic for EACH item

When posting items for sale in the past I found the allowed length for thread subject line (after which it silently starts chopping off characters) to be quite restrictive. I found it difficult to fit meaningful names in the title to attract people who may be interested in something specific. Saying "stuff for sale" and listing various different items under it will miss many potential buyers who may only open a thread if they knew it was offering what they were looking for or if they saw something that sounded interesting/useful. They will only find the items advertised that way if they pro-actively searched for them. Many of us have bought things here that we never knew were needed ( Embarassed ) so wouldn't have specifically searched for them. Current: Volvo XC90 T8 Inscription Pro PHEV with some optionals on top

i know its a difficult thing, but having 10's of threads clutters up the first page, could sell a few items per thread, add items to the thread etc

just a suggestion, no point in editing all the threads etc

Ady i thought for a few moments about the location, FS&W, Off Topic, Site news but decided on the OT area, still couldn't make my mind up Embarassed

Yes, that would be a decent compromise. Current: Volvo XC90 T8 Inscription Pro PHEV with some optionals on top
