Modeators! Problem with wanted forum


SuddenlySummer

Recommended Posts

The Wanted Forum is a "read only". You have to leave your email address, phone # or else in your posting, and people has to contact you through that.

It's made to don't use a lot of bandwidth with server and load up system with huge traffic.

Well, bigg, more bandwidth costs more money, and by including an e-mail address in the post it allows all those price and other negotiations to go on "off the air," as it were. This way is almost identical to a classified ad in a newspaper, where the ad is all you see and you have to contact the seller personally. Also, e-mail was the most common way to negotiate that used equipment forum before the change, so it's not really much of a change. grin.gif

what if we got rid of employment opportunities and just had wanted items. This isn't exactly the "labor ready" HSOforum. if you take a look at it right now 3/4 of the threads are employment oriented.
Alright,I'll shut up about it. Just that complainer in me.

This needs to be this way otherwise it makes it really easy for someone to sell something for greater than $250. It says right at the top of the page that you must leave your info and I am sorry but some people just don't take the time to read. I have even posted and FYI message in there as extra notice.

Come on people if you are looking for something, why wouldn't you at least leave an e-mail address?? I can see not wanting to leave a phone number, but if you were to place an ad in the paper wouldn't you leave some sort of contact info?? Don't post stuff without contact info!!

Sorry just had to vent I have seen SO MANY ads posted there in the past couple weeks that didn't have any contact info.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
