I do agree with you nocte, but now my ad sits at the way bottom, and right now its not really a problem, but when you get 500 ads through it, its will be at the bottom and people won't search that far.

A way to sort by price would be nice, though it would require input validation on the price field, which means OBO can't be placed there.

After 3 months the old ones fall off. It'd be nice if the ads marked sold would become invisible, but really, 500 ads in 3 months isn't going to happen. I've got 4 ads up right now, from just a few days after that system went live, and although they're at the bottom of the list when looking at the Ads Index overall, all 4 are on the front page of their respective category.

Did not know that about the ads dropping off after 3 months. Is there a search feature for the classifieds?

New system.

It's already nicer than the old one, and has much more potential to be improved upon.

One other small suggestion though, could we get a section for 'pouches' under tactical gear? and an 'other' category for airsoft related stuff might be useful too.

Maybe we should have a menu button at the top of the web page that says classfieds

It's there. Hover over 'Community' and it's the second one down.

I think he means a whole button for classifieds. So its more obvious to people.

RSS is a feed where in an application such as Google Mail or the new Yahoo mail, there's sort of a scrolling ticker, and RSS feeds put up ticker items. So I get rotating Airsoft Pacific Ads with my Reuters news and other stuff.

Yeah I like the new setup more, it makes it better for the buyer to find what he is looking for instead of having to look through 50 pages for an item.
