Should be right at the top of the thread, right hand side.

Maybe this is here, but I would like to be able to find threads that certain users start. A compiled list….people are always saying "have you seen _____ tank build thread on Canreef?" Then I take forever trying to track it down.

Also, how to post photos…I have looked around and can't seem to find that….

And maybe both are here, but I just haven't found them yet.

Search allows you to find all posts by username or threads started by username.

We did a thread on posting photos, but it's quite old and probably inaccurate now.
I think most people prefer using outside hosting sites then linking, but we can work on a how to

Ahhh, there it is...., learn something every day. Thanks.

Would also be nice to subscribe to a member. Maybe provide that option when you click on the name?

I think it would be nice to see where the person is from before having to click the link, just to find out the seller is in ontario or alberta. Would probably save a lot of hassle.

You're from Abbotsford, right there in your post.

Yea and the only way to see that is to click on my name or my post. And that to me seems silly. There is no separation between local and distant posts.

Not really an option for that unless the poster suffixes their title with location. We can't enforce that, so it's up to the poster. Some do, some don't.

Also, if I'm willing to ship an item, I wouldn't put location as it's not important to me, and I want the whole country to see it.

But really, clicking a link and then clicking the back button doesn't constitute a hassle in my mind.

Overall, I think it's best left to the poster of the item to decide how they want to advertise. The buyers can then decide (after clicking) whether they want to engage in shipping. I do agree that if you don't want to ship, add location to title, and more people are doing that these days. But from a manual intervention/enforcement view, I'm not checking each post for this.

You can't just make a bc for sale, an alberta for sale etc? Doesn't seem like it would be to hard. People would still have the option,and it would save time going through the posts.

I always use the New Posts button on top where it lists all the newest threads. Couldn't Location be added right beside the Member name, underneath the Thread name?

It's not a big deal with me, but if it is a simple change, might be helpful to some.
