TPJ Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) Just noticed that some DB related adds were moved to areas that may hinder their sales. As a frequent db area user, I would look to the db for sale section for items relating to db. I see that a Fishman preamp was moved to other items, when indeed it's a pedal and usually associated with db. Also some db strings, db educational material and a db case were moved. May I suggest that whomever is moderating that section have a think about relevancy of the items there. It's a little more niche than bass guitar and probably deserves a bit more thought.

ped Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 We all moderate all sections now. Please report anything you want by clicking on the report button in the top right. Usually we don't move marketplace items so it may have simply been listed in those areas by choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassace Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 What’s going on? Several clearly db items have been moved to other sections. Surely not ‘by choice’. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Can you give me some examples? Some links would be useful. Cheers just a bit busy at the mo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassace Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Some examples? You can see them quite clearly on the dB for sale section. Surely not that busy, Ped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonteee Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Not meaning to intrude, but I think ped meant items that have been seemingly moved out of the db thread to others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ped Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Anyway I'm back at a computer now. I can see some that @Hamster has moved - possibly to make them appear in the accessories forum as well as DB? But yes from now on we can leave any posts in the DB forum alone unless requested...

Hamster Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Hi. Yes I moved some that were not DB's or EUB's - I put the bits and pieces in their respective for sale forums - Am I bad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I'd ask that you leave anything remotely DB related in the DB for sale section. I realise that sounds selfish but things like db strings, dvds, cases, preamps etc... would sell better there. Although I will wander around the forum, I had come to expect anything related to DB to be in that area. Not having a go, just concerned that sales may be affected. If I was in the market for Spirocores, I'd look in the db section. If not found there, I wouldn't really look elsewhere. I don't think it's just me that feels this way. Feel free to take a poll or something to ask the members how they feel. I appreciate the site has recently changed but maybe have a look at how well the db section functioned.

Absolutely, I think we know best where we want to list iur gear. FS forums are the Life blood of this place - socially and financially - so not a good thing to mess with.

Hamster Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 I've re-named the marketplace forum to reflect what goes in there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Krow Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 @Hamster Actually the same point with effects & pedal boards or pedal board power units. I also saw a pedal board had been moved out of the effects FS forum, but I think if anyone using bass pedals is looking for a pedal board to put their effects on, they'd also be looking in the effects forum?

ped Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Worth noting that when stuff gets moved, it’s visible in both forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
