People!, can you not just "bump" your add instead of clogging up the forum with multiple adds for one item.

And if you should be lucky to receive an item, why not delete your post instead of just leaving it there waiting for admin to decide what should be done with it. They have enough work on their plates without cleaning up after us.

At home we are "giving out" to the kids for not cleaning up after themselves (maybe that's just in my house).LOL. So maybe we should "practice what we preach"!!!

I like to browse the "wanted" adds. Not because i have something to offer but maybe i might see something people want, and i realise "i have that" but would never have thought of offering it. So using the "search" button wouldn't matter to me as i hadn't thought of offering the item until i saw the request for it. And it can be a bit daunting when you see all the adds.

I know admin are going to say "the wanted forum" is not what JT is about, it's just an extra "helping hand". LOL. But it would be nice if it was a little smaller, simply by people doing a bit of a clean up.

Anyway! ranting finished. Maybe it's just me!! Is it the late night that's to blame for my way of thinking?



Hi aggiec,

would agree with you about the wanted ads. Maybe if Admin were to break it down into catagories i.e. Domestic appliances, furniture, etc.. it would be easier to look through them this way. It would also save people having to "bump" them every day/week to bring them back up. They could then remove them when/if they receive item requested. I see on other sites that it is done this way and it seems an easier way to look for items which may be requested.
