Not to be picky or stir up anything but I do not think anyone besides the OP should post in any classifieds thread: FS, FF or LF. The latest thread there "Raw Tuna" http://ovas.ca/index.php?topic=46646.0 has several posts other than the OPs. Just sort unfair to us without that permission.

That was my second point here http://ovas.ca/index.php?topic=46604.0. There were a couple there at that time, one from Sharbuckle, I think, but they're gone now. Check out the post from Hookup on the 18th.

Yes, I had forgot a setting on  the LF board, it has now been fixed.  Mods can reply to all posts as part of their duties - sometimes it's hard to remember where you are on the forum.

I was thinking about it, and would it not make sense to leave the LF board as allowing replies? This would create somewhat of a searchable database for anyone looking for items. Right now, if i am looking for guppies, I would search the FS ads, which tell me who has or has had them for sale, but searching the LF ads doesn't help me, but if I find someone else's previous LF ad, I can use the responses to that to find what I am looking for without ever having to post. Just a thought.

I was thinking along the same line.  For certain items it works.  I just don't want it to become a "PM sent", "PM replied" fiasco like the classifieds were before. 

Perhaps we'll give it a try for awhile and see what happens.

What did I do to who?    :)

Tim,

As always, you were a model citizen and did nothing wrong.

You had made a post in the LF forum (chems to clean probes) and a number of folks replied.

Nothing, sorry, I wasn't pointing fingers or laying blame. I was just pointing out that it looked like it was now possible to reply to classifieds. apparently, just a glitch which has been or will be corrected. I think your post had 10 replies.

Oh.. .i'm sure I'm to blame for lots of things... My wife tells me this every morning... :)

Now I remember that post... was very helpful actually... several people were offering to help....  and they did!

You still shouldn't have posted it, look how many people you made break the rules! Truly a bad influence on us all :P

Guilty.... as charged...

I'm just that kind of rebel... a rebel without a clue. ;D
