Can we make a new policy in the buy/sell/trade forums?

[madchild]

Would it be possible to make a new requirement that people post the location (city/town) in the thread title

I like buying from these forums but I hate having to click the thread to find out where it is for sale.

A very common requirement for marketplace thread is:

[FS] "item(s)" [Location]

Prefix requirement would be nice to have as well

[FS] For Sale
[FT] For Trade
[WTB] Want To Buy

Please consider this.

This forum is powered by vBulletin, so it's not hard to implement making it required

Most people do post FS,FF,FT,WTB. and location.
Most will also ship
Don't think it hurts to open a thread for a moment

when you're on a phone it can be a pitb to figure out someones location, also not everyone has their location on their profile

Fair enough

The only thing I can enforce is location in the top right corner as profile info. Almost every member has it. I cannot force people to post locations in title without a lot more reading and reviewing, which I'm not inclined to do. Since most people probably want to click the thread to review details anyway, I think we're fine with that.

Thats pure lazyness really lol. It's just one little click man!

I'm the lazyest person ever and even I don't even think one little click is going to kill me ..

Excellent suggestion.

I agree with madchild. Granted its a minor inconvenience, but it would take the poster a second to add it to the title

I'm in favor of doing this, would make the buy/sell a little easier to traverse.

I don't see it being the biggest issue for mods either, take the current lack of price situation; the average board user is usually the one to politely inform the poster, I doubt this would be any different.
