Andrewr05 Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 This is not official by any means I just had a thought and I was wondering what you guys think. I was thinking it might allow people to view things better in the Marketplace section. Maybe a section for deals, a wanted section, sale/trade section and a freebies section, kinda liek this: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bp9801 Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 It would make it easier imo. No more having to dig through all the topics to find ones you're looking for or to find your thread to bump/add to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdy284 Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 seems like a good idea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewr05 Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 The thread titles [DEAL] [FREE] et cetera work good in this way also but I think a combination of the two would work best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrewr05 Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 (edited) Also I was thinking of a section for OCC members to give stuff away, essentially the freebie section but only for stuff that OCC members are offering. Almost like a "pay it forward" type thing where if you take something free you should offer something free as well.

ClayMeow Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 The thread titles [DEAL] [FREE] et cetera work good in this way also but I think a combination of the two would work best. Most of us have been starting threads with such things, so in a way, we've been doing our on self-dividing. In theory, if you wanted to look for just deals, you can do a search for [Deal]. Not the most ideal way, but at least there is a "back up" in case the higher ups don't want subforums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBags Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 Imma vote yes on this. most of the other forums I've visited use this type of setup (Deals, Freebs, FS/T/LF subforums) and i like the organized look of it. Though I'm a little conflicted on the separation of WTT/WTS and WTB. I know a few people here have combined WTS/T/B threads, and it adds a simple convienient place for selling stuff wile advertising what you want, yet separately it will make it easier for people to find your WTB or WTS threads... yet depend on people to actively look at what people want to buy by browsing the separate subforum..

slick2500 Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 I think that the deals should go in a subforum yes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewr05 Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 Yeah, maybe not everything spit into sub-forums but at lest [DEALS] and the I think a "Pay-It-Forward" sub-forum would be interesting as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
