bump deleting
hey guys. on this whole bump deleting in the for sale ads. i posted something for sale or trade in the proper section. about 2 hours later, i went on to check if anyone responded. it was already on the second page of the forum. personally, and others that i know, stop searching after the first page or so. how am i supposed to sell something when before the day is over and i'm on the 6th page. you cant. i have been on numerous forums for different things, and never has this been a problem. the forums need to be broken down a little more so others and i dont have this problem.

it's not that big of a deal..most of the time, people know what they're looking for, and search it. that's what i do atleast... and yes, there are window shoppers, but if we all bump after a few hours...it's going to be the same chaos as having the 1 bump a day rule.

Personally I think the whole bumping rule is BS. If you're online more than some other seller, why shouldn't you be able to bump your thread as many times as you want. You're only spamming your own thread so who cares.
With that being said - from my own personal experience - I search a day out for stuff and do searches for specific items. I never stop on page one.

so what are you selling anyway. Edit your first thread on this one and it seems to be staying at the top now, so at least you would be getting some free bumps.....

Your an idiot Rader. Why wouldnt you look past the first page unless your just too lazy?? The reason your still on the first page at other forums is becuase NO ONE VISITS them! Stop complaining if you dont like it dont post your here!

buggy/truggy
parts
engines

okay guys common this is now going too turn into a yelling match? People have the freedom of speech he was just posting his dislike of the one bump rule I personally don't mind it. actually i have 40+ rating so needless to say I've had no problem selling or buying anything on here with the rule in place. It's kind of a horse a piece some guys don't benefit but the majority do we can't please everyone.
