Items wanted - uh?

[casapete]

Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed that the most recent pages (nearly 7 of them) in the 'Items Wanted' section
have not seen any replies? Am guessing this is because people who are n't registered to sell on here are unable
to answer?

[LukeFRC]

no - it's cos they turned the replies off to stop people creating cheeky sales adverts....

Aaah, ok - sorry!

Answers are by pm nowadays this reduces the audience for the cheeky adverts?

Indeed... It also reduces the audience for genuine adverts.

Though if someone's got something that they want to sell, they could put it in the "For Sale" section.

True.. although if someone is looking for a 'bass under £200' it might be nice to be able to reference your listing in the for sale section so that other people also looking for a 'bass under £200' can see it.

There is another thread on this and I think it goes along the lines that the site admin did not want to block replies ...so really you can only blame the people who abused the items wanted section for the replies being turned off I know it is a bit annoying but what else could be done?

[CamdenRob]

Yeah I understand where they are coming from, I just don't agree... a mild irritant really though, I don't lose sleep over it.
