welsh1 Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 There is a pretty simple system on this forum, we break things down so you can choose the right topic clay shooting, diy, motors etc. We have also devised this very clever system if you want to sell something, you go to the trading post, if its a shotgun /rifle put it in the "guns for sale" if it's something else put it in "other sales", and if you want something put it in "wanted". Clever eh, almost fool proof, i say that because my time spent moving things for sale from guns and equipment or other forums seems to be ever growing. Come on ladies and gents, the right thing in the right place would help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

London Best Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 Maybe the system is fool proof, but not idiot proof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Neal Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 The underlying trouble is that fools are not system-proof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIGHTCHOKE Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Clearly the laziness that appears to be rife across the country has migrated in to Pigeon Watch. Far too many people just throw a pointless post in the first place they find. So much for the old way of having to be a Member for a while and have some posts before you could get in to some sections. Nowadays it's just straight in, post and hardly ever come back.

oldypigeonpopper Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Hello, there has seen a few new members only interest in selling and not interested in being part of the forums multi diverse country side interests, even off topic ??

Westley Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 I am guilty of putting some posts in twice, still getting used to doing things on my phone and not a laptop. Sorry ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmicblue Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Common sense is, unfortunately, not all that common. I'm a mod on a car forum and moving posts to the correct section is a regular task - I suspect it might be due to increasing numbers of people, especially youngsters using mobile phones as their web surfing device.
