    I just wanted to say that I hate that no one can post on ads anymore. This may have been discussed already, but I often found questions and comments useful. If I just wanted to view ads I would pick up a newspaper. If someone can't follow the rules, punish them, not everyone. That's my rant for the day:/

    Seems like most do as well. Unfortunately majority does not rule here. It's OK though, the powers that be are happy. It's "simplified"! #inbeforethe"nooneforcesyoutobehere"comments

    quit bitchin. Its done this way everywhere. lol

    Lol right. "I volunteered to be a moderator, but you guys have to realize, this is not a full time job. I have no time to moderate between my 'stache trimmings, uber hardcore range sessions (broke a sweat once), and watching all my DVR'd episodes of Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman."

    Wow. I'd really prefer if you don't post up quotes of me from our private text conversations.

    I hate it too, but my family gets to see me more, so yeah even they hate it too. I used to be able to spend hours of quality time on there, now I spend more time on other forums,....

    Hated to out you bro, but you're getting to be a little too much to handle. I've run out of booze and lost my Kansas cassette. My weekend is ruined.

    There's forty-three (43) other subforums on Bayoushooter to discuss all kinds of things (even guns). The marketplace was never intended to be a discussion forum. It was allowed anyway provided people could follow a couple simple rules, which despite our best efforts just didn't happen.

    I know why it's the way it is. I don't care.

    I don't like it. You can't make me.

    I blame bs875.

    What if you were able to allow the OP in a marketplace thread the ability to delete posts in a thread that they create. This would allow for comments in the thread but would also allow the OP to police the thread himself and take the burden off the mods. Just a thought.

    Oh, I don't know. It seems like the number of actual discussions has increased a little bit.

    Maybe a pre-formatted form for the initial sales post would help? Insert photo here, location, price...

    Like everything else in the world, a few idiots ruined it for everybody. I don't like it either.

    You guys keep saying "this is how it is on every other forum"; I admit, I haven't been on that many forums, but the ones I have been on aren't like this.
    I know this isn't going to change back, it just always pisses me off when people are punished for the actions of others.
