Maybe if the Buy/Sell forums were done away with altogether and if you want sell something you post it in the respective "Reefing Club" forum for your location. (Or nearest location, for those in the boonies).

I don't know. Just a thought. It doesn't really bother me the way it is now.

I like having a separate buy/sell section. If they went into the location specific section I think it would just get too bulky in there and no one would actually notice the local event stuff as it would constantly be buried under the ads.

plus I like having it open to others even if they aren't local in case the seller can ship. plus others can chime their opinions in too without having to switch to several different sections. jmo

I agree with 'justini'. The buy and sell should be kept as a separate forum.The simple solution as mentioned earlier is to make location a requirement on registering.

i like it the old way where everything was in that forum less confusion. IMO

Hello,

Sorry for the delay. And thank you Christy for cracking the whip on me.
Okay so as other members have pointed out, we have this discussion in the past. And the general consensus is the same thing "we request members to post their location". At that point and up until now, I still do not see a need to alter any forum software to make this a mandatory field.

Maybe on other sites under their circumstances it works out to be better. But so far we think what we have here has been working out great. If need me, people can always PM the seller for more information.

Titus
