SSS Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 When something is sold, it must be marked as sold which is the rule now... But, I have been having a think. Is there any way the topic titles can be edited and changed to SOLD to save me or you hours of time trawling through? Just a thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inthedark Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Perhaps the OP should have the option to delete the post at point of sale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSS Posted March 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Or that would work well, good thinking batman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albob Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Perhaps the OP should have the option to delete the post at point of sale? the only problem with that is ,the op can then remove the ad that said the item was mint,when the buyer finds out it is not and then needs the ad,to refer back to...just an example. not everyone wil think of copying and pasting the ad. just a thought. al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verminator69 Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Good idea though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodp Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Would it be possible to just change the title to red or something when sold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulos Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Does it really take hours of "trawling" to click on a topic....and then click "Back" if the word "Sold" is present? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSS Posted March 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 It does sometimes take a long time, especially if there is 50 odd posts asking for pictures and saying nice gun! I am guilty of doing the above, but wouldn't you like the forum to be a little easier to use and more user friendly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSS Posted March 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Come on mods and admin, what do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chunkyed Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 That sounds better than ******* about for an hour of my life trying to find if the item is still for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terence Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 if the seller edits there for sale ad and marks it sold as soon as you read ad you will know its sold no need to read all the posts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ME Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 SSS, For a bit of perspective, how many guns / items have you bought on PW ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chard Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 SSS, For a bit of perspective, how many guns / items have you bought on PW ? I've bought a few Land Rover Lightweights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 This idea isn't original and the subject has been brought up many times before, the answer remains the same. The OP <should> write NOW SOLD in the first post - not difficult is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry d Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 The OP <should> write NOW SOLD in the first post - not difficult is it? Nope, I think the mods have enough to do................and not enough pay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSS Posted March 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 SSS, For a bit of perspective, how many guns / items have you bought on PW ? I have not bought a gun as yet, but have PM'd about more than I could count on both hands, only to get the answer 'its sold' This idea isn't original and the subject has been brought up many times before, the answer remains the same. The OP <should> write NOW SOLD in the first post - not difficult is it? Not difficult at all stuart, but some people seem incapable of doing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 Not difficult at all stuart, but some people seem incapable of doing it Maybe members should be made to pass PW Posting Certificate Level One before posting solo, or have a mentor for a year who can sign them off when capable of posting sensibly and safely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr W Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 We haven't got enough mentors for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
