I just noticed the posting in some retailers threads when it specifically says that they will only read emails, or just all the useless chatter in posts that could be conveyed in PMs. IMO if I was a retailer I wouldnt want mindless questions to clutter my sales thread, and only need to be cleaned by a mod. It was just a minor concern as to why it was allowed!

[pusangani]

true, but some retailers want people to post in their threads to gauge interest for potential items for sale etc.

retailers can lock and unlock their own threads to prevent people from posting in them

it was someone that was asking about kalash AKS74s and 74Us along with some other guns from what i recall...

[ILLusion]

I just checked the threads and there was never a retailer who mentioned he was bringing in Kalash's... but there WAS a thread where other users were requesting/mentioning bringing them in. The seller never confirmed they were to be brought in.

[bleaches]

it could be the one lol. i just rememberd he said he had sources for cyma AK74Us as well. he posted that right above the kalash AKS74s

thanks

We're still working on optimizing the google ads. They're completely underperforming, which pretty much sucks. We're going to play around with placement as well as trying to get the ads targeted better... i.e. having the ads actually apply to the thread better than they are now.

Remember, site supporters can turn off the Google ad display in the Options section of their User CP.

we're working on fixing it so that there will be only two ads per page one at the nav bar and one at the first post (that way the robots can hit that link and follow it)

site supporters can click here, scroll to the bottom and choose turn off ad

Is there any way to have an option for the classic home page format, with the recent threads on the right hand side? Also, I assume the airsoft news feed will be eventually filtered for UK retailer ads?

We're still moving stuff around, and probably confusing the crap out of people in the process unfortunately. I'm not sure what's going to happen with the International News forum yet...

[Double Tapper]

So are we going to have google ads through the threads now?.
