Any interest in a 9yo weimeriner?

Need pictures. Is item NIB?

From the number of members who still have 5-10 ads bumped all at once makes me think they either don't care or only come to this site to play in the classifieds...

Many members do come for the classifieds.

It's a shame.

It's a shame.

I agree.

not sure if this has been mentioned or not (don't want to read 5 pages), is there a way this can be stickied on every classified sub-forum instead of just the general firearm discussion sub-forum?

I've actually considered making a video (screen capture style) showing how to properly made a classifieds ad (as well as a series of other 'how to' videos for the forum).

Sadly I doubt the people who need to see it would watch it.

but you could just reply to a messed up ad with a link to video or rule sticky. Hopefully at least repeat offenders will start to get the message.

I could. But before doing so I'd like @Joe Link to approve. I stuck it to the general section as it's the most visited.

And it still won't make things perfect, believe me.

Better to beg for forgiveness then ask for permission I always say.

oh I know, but it's not like it will make it worse.

No matter what I, you or anyone else does there will still be members that break the rules in the classifieds.

not arguing that at all. At worst, posting it everywhere does nothing and things continue the way they are. At best, it cuts down on junk postings. Just my .

If you see a problem, "Report" the post. The link is in the lower left area. The mods here will handle it.

I'm sure it's been mentioned but please, please, close your ad when the item sells or if you no longer wish to sell it just shut it down.
