Just joined - why can't I reply to classified?

[Sam Nitzberg]

Hello, all. Anyone know why I can't reply to a post in the Wanted area of classifieds? I can reply elsewhere.

We recently modified our setup on classified forums in that we removed the ability to reply to them. I would recommend that you private message or email the person who placed the ad if no phone number was included.

This can be done by right clicking on the poster's name and selecting from the options offered on the menu that will appear.

Thanks, got it.

Welcome from OK.

Sounds like a good idea Fred. Now no one can reply about items that were sold weeks or months ago.

Or go off topic or make negative comments.

Nope, no one gets to reply to classifieds anymore, but you already knew that...

Yup ... that's correct. Just like in the

• Sign Craft Magazine
• Signs of the Times Magazine
• Sign Business Magazine
• Etc.

It is a benefit of premium membership subscription. And just like most forms of advertising, we don't want to continue the daily parade of new registrants who join, post an ad and are never seen again. Neither do we want to spend our time dealing with unhappy members who get criticized or have their ad threads taken off topic.

But tell us what's really on your mind. In the short time you've been a member the majority of your posts have been directed at this issue and other faults you find with Signs 101. My understanding is that your arrival here coincided with being banned from another forum. Is that your intention here? Do you plan to see how rude and counter productive you can be before anyone says anything about it?

In my world criticism has value when it comes constructively and from one who has earned respect through example, success and from helping others. That hasn't been seen yet from you.

So please ... tell us what's really on your mind.
