    Thanks for all your feedback, chaps

    Having assessed your input, I think it's clear that the majority would rather leave things as they are, so that's what we'll do. However, we'll be having a general 'clear up' of the trade room, including removing all input from those whose accounts have elapsed and no longer contribute to the site, so that should help things a bit!

    As ever, your feedback is valued, so if there are any other issues you'd like to discuss, please do so by starting an appropriate thread. Cheers!

    When will this be done ? It's annoying that members have to go through numerous, out of date posts to reach those who have posted new info.They are getting free advertising whereas those who pay are being lost in a long list.

    I'll try and remember, Dave, as soon as I have a spare couple of hours or so, and where that spare couple of hours isn't needed to do something else more important in the 'real world'... That's the problem at the moment, mate.

    However, in the meantime, if any trusted, longterm member would be able to help, PM me and I'll give you temporary moderator rights, in order to enable you to do the necessary tidying up!

    Would it be possible to move old stuff into an archive area that wouldn't appear on the front page but would still be available to those looking for information? It might relate to gear they have purchased in the past from those traders, or more general price or specification information.

    That would be good, when you have time. If I was more confident with the technicalities, I would do it.

    Some of the old postings have just one post, so there's not a lot of lost information there if they are deleted.
