I don't see a way to get back to the other forums from the new Tradin' Post. Am I just not seeing it? I also find it very confusing having other user's items show while looking at anothers items. I've been questioned about items that aren't even mine.

scroll to the bottom of the page and click arboristsite.com, or scroll to the top and click new posts. both will pull you back to the forum.
-Ralph, looking at the 2nd 1/2 of your question now

ok, I see what you are talking about. if I look at your listing, I see 3 pics at the bottom, with a link labeled, more > clicking that will show items listed by others. I see cutting scotts jug and piston and jazaks 044. if I didnt already know, I would have assumed them to be offered by you as well.

so, I can duplicate the problem, but cannot fix it. let's leave this post for Darin or DDM to see. It looks to me to be a rolling thumbnail series of all listed items. I agree that it is confusing.

I'm sure that's what it is. Hopefully it's something that can be changed easily. Thanks for the quick reply. I'm sure you guys are anxious to see how this works out, and we'll get used to it.

Is there a wa to get a symbol put in the left hand column that tells when a new post has been added to that category, like there is on all the other subforums and posts on the rest of the site?

Not at the moment

Dag Nab it! I made a bunch of worthless post just so I could get to the 50 post limit (even though I don't have nuthin' to sell). But thanks for the upgrade anyway! Looks great.

What happened to the feedback threads? Positive and Negative feedback stickies?

New Trading Post

How do I REMOVE a want ad? My three day listing is still posted several weeks later. No leads from AS viewers but great information posted on my thread in large equipment
ASV30 VS ASV50.

You just hit sold then nobody will contact you any longer. I don't know why it still is on there.

Is it just me or deos it seem like there are far less ads being posted since the new Trading post was made?

I've been thinking the same thing lately...

I have to agree, plus before there used to be discussion about the items where as now it is just an ad.

I have to admit I go there far less often then I did before.

There seems to be a lot of ads there and you can still reply just like you did before.

I think part of it might be that since it is divided up into categories, you can't see everything at a glance. There's more browsing involved. Works great if you are looking for a specific item tho. Another thing I've noticed is that some folk aren't using the "wanted" category, they post a "wanted" ad to the "for sale" category of the item they are wanting (if that makes any sense).

This is all wonderful, I'm sure, but where in the heck have you hidden the trading post? I've looked under every bush and can't find it. Does this mean I can't ask for parts where most people lurk? This really seems like killing a fly with a sledgehammer to me. Sorry if this upsets anyone, but this place was complicated enough as it was, and as several have said, there is a lot less selling and buying activity this way.

But once again, WHERE IS the trading post?
