Default Possible New Rule for classifieds??

Im personally getting a bit tired of people with say 7 animals and making 7 posts about them, its just cluttering up the boards.

Can we not introduce a new rule for one advert per user in each of the sections in classifieds.

I have about 20 animals for sale all on one thread, if i split them up id ruin the section.

Yep - I agree too.

Imagine if I made a seperate post for each and every one of my vivs for sale??

I'd take up the first 3 pages of the Equipment Classifieds, lol.

I hate the 'pm for price' or no price put on at all.
I also hate all the 'pm'd first' business as well.
IMO all dealings for the sale should be on the forum rather than by PM - open, honest etc.

I like to be able to see the animal for sale in the thread title. If several animals are for sale in one thread I don't bother looking unless very local to me.
If looking for something specific I'll use the search function on thread titles only because user name, signature and chat clutter my results.

On the other hand, if one person advertises twenty animals at once then everyone else's ads get lost.

The "pm for price/pics/details" has gotta be the most annoying thing
If you know the information just say it!
