I've thought about that before, might be a good idea that - but what do other people think? sometimes you can get some useful replies to ads, but also sometimes you can get people messing up peoples sales or just posting madness in there.

I might also be able to set up some sorta expiration date - so ads only live for like a month or so? Hmmmm...

rcracer has agreed to moderate the forsale section - thanks for those who also asked but I'd already talked to rcracer and its best theres only one for now I think - but if there's a forum without a moderator that someone takes a personal interest in then I'd be happy for some help. I'm on the forum all day every day (!) and still I can't really look at everything to keep an eye on it.

There's no moderators (apart from the global mods like me vicky and paul rotheram) on lots of the sub forums, like the micro, smelly (nitro) and touring car forums..
Apart from Skelding on the HB and Northy on the pred forums, none of the manufacturer forums have specific moderators either - so if someone fancies taking more of a role and is of course reponsible, literate and kind hearted - let me know

I've been thinking of doing sub forums for different chassis - might not really apply to some manufacturers, especially since interest might be low. but in those that have a lot of use like the Tamiya forum - maybe have a sub forum for DB01 and one for 501X (as well as the main tamiya one)
Just might be easier to keep info for specific cars together - rather than have a thread like 'can I have a setup for kiddy' in the AE forum, no one knows if its for B4 or B44 for instance.
just some ideas - most of mine are crap so feedback welcome!

I don't wanna clutter this site up, but at the same time some changes might help to un-clutter it.
