Random Rants

Are there no decent black denim jackets for under 300 dollars??
@Jeanmoreau every IH Type III is worth it, for the sturdiness, the value of good feelings wearing it, and the story it's going to tell

ARGGHHHHHH!!! the two days I'm in Japan over the weekend and IH Osaka is closed for the camp

Didn't we discuss 'no selling-only members' anymore once @neph93 @Giles ?
Are referring to the recent post regarding gold necklaces?
This and during the week I usually have not much time to spend in the forum to see what's going on. I therefore use the 'View the most recent posts on the forum.' If then one or two pages with mostly selling stuff appears I am off…

When I first got on the forum there were certain sections that you couldn’t access unless you were a member. Then one day it went away.
That’s kind of irrelevant as the people that are listing for sale threads are members so it wouldn’t help @Chap’s rant. @neph93 didn’t you set up a post limit to be able to view the B&S boards to stop the scammers a while back? Perhaps that is no longer firing?
-
But sometimes someone will inquire about an item and when I check their profile,they’ve only posted in the Buying/Selling section or have almost no posts at all. Technically they’re members.
Exactly, so hiding a section to non members does not solve this particular issue…
-
I didn’t mean hiding to non-members. I was thinking that maybe there could be a way for Chap to just hide that section unless he wants to visit it. I don’t know how that would work, but it might solve the issue. Or if like you don’t care about “general chat”. Hide it. Simple?

Do I like that some members really contribute nothing to the community but just use the B&S threads, no I don't. But the B&S section attracts people and partly the success of this place is that the content is very dynamic, which means that search engines like it.
I cant see how we allow some genuine members to use the forum to buy and sell stuff but disallow people who contribute nothing. Any ideas would be welcome.
But, you can ignore whole boards, so you never see posts in them.
If you go PROFILE/MODIFY PROFILE/IGNORE BOARD OPTIONS and select the boards you do not want to see posts in, then you wont….
When a board is ignored, the new post indicator will not show up on the board index. New posts will not show up using the "unread post" search link (when searching it will not look in those boards) however, ignored boards will still appear on the board index and upon entering will show which topics have new posts. When using the "unread replies" link, new posts in an ignored board will still be shown.
