IRON HEART FORUM MIGRATION - Help Us Make the New Forum Even Better
-
@cityofdelusion As a mod, a great deal of my time is spent cleaning up and monitoring the marketplace.
Individuals would make my job much easier if they followed the listed rules for ads, marked their items as sold, or deleted the ads when no longer relevant.
I can’t imagine the nightmare of making the marketplace any more fragmented than it already is.
Tags may be useful, but only if the users followed the guidelines for using them. Given how many people can’t follow the guidelines now, I can’t imagine adding any more complexity to it.
Also, many sellers have multiple items listed, size ranges varying across the board, and many have had ads in place for a few years who regularly add and delete items at will.
I’m not saying your ideas are bad, and I do like the thought of some of them. Reality makes the ideas a little difficult from my end to fathom and I fear the work that will go into monitoring it.

No worries, it's only a suggestion after all that I believe will make everyone's (but the mods) experience here a little better.
As for the rest of the problems you mentioned: I think that most of them would be solved if when creating a sales thread, there were multiple input/text/upload areas (e.g., to enter a price, condition, description, location, size, photos etc.) that would require a mandatory input before being able to publish. In other words: The forum would require you to either fill those areas or not allow you to post at all.

Sometimes I remember a post (by another forum member or myself) on a certain topic, but I'm unabel to find it again. Would it be doable to have a search function looking within someones posts for a term?sorry, stupid me. saw that it's already possible via the advanced search function
