What about a compromise? No ad bumping for 48 or 72 hours?

Is it still a minimum of 10 posts before gaining access to the BST forum?

Actually, I think that you shouldn't trade if you're still a newly registered. This lasts 25 posts. I can change it, of course. Now, As everybody is newly registered, this rule should apply later.

I am rebuilding rules and I think that it should be done this way.

How about having the location in the first line of the ad. It would make reading the titles shorter and easier to go through.
We used to have to have our location listed in our profile so that it showed under our name in posts. I think this needs to be implemented again.

Location needs to be a requirement to use the BST, county fine but not south Florida or central Fl like many used before. City preferred .

County is good, city is better. I agree with Rent. A lot of "south FL" sale ads were in St. Pete, or the keys. That's too big a spread.

+1 on this.

Look at the formerly called "epic picture thread" and the BST. Nobody is able or willing to follow simple rules. They just don't care and if they can do it to piss you off, they will.

I can offer you a mod position if you want.
