Updated Classifieds!
You just called me a chickenshit. We'll pick up on that in a second.
I locked that thread, which was never taken down and is still up on the 3rd page, because people were asking IB Adrian redundant questions and complaining when they weren't answered. However, the discussion and answers were being made in this thread. So, the 11-page poll thread was locked, as I explained at that time, because of that reason. We don't need more than one active thread about anything in any forum.
So, after consideration, since you called me a chickenshit and not IB, and since I'm not offended, I've decided I shall not ban you.
But, I do banish you. You cannot post in this thread again, even in reply to this message (but, you can PM me about it if you want). I've PM'ed you this warning as well.
You have spoken you piece. And then some. And then a lot, lot, lot more.
Oh, and eLiT3SnIpEz, 7 day ban for being a troll. This comes after my 3-day ban (not 2-week). If you have an issue with that, PM me.

Lol.....
IB is handling this like the BP oil spill
I'm not siding with that guy at all, but why dont you back the request to fix the classified section? Its still a cluster. Either close this thread and tell the thousands of us that hate it to love it or leave it... or do something about it. Quit leaving everyone hang here for ever.
Lol.....
Lol.....
This is a thread exists for the same reason it was started: to provide IB with feedback about the not-so-new classifieds section.
IB has, on multiple occasions, answered definitively that they will not change it back. They've also answered why (which I'll not paraphrase) in this thread. So, there's nothing to hang about.
You don't know whether CRAGER backs that change or not. CRAGER and I both might be constantly telling IB to change the forums back. Or, we might be telling them it's great and to leave it the new way.

feedback is meaningless if everyone says the new forum isnt worth a **** yet it still sticks around.....seriously anyone here that actually owns a successful business should at least have the common sense if your customers are not happy with the changes you either go with what works or fix what you changed.....in this case fixing it goes back to what works and thats the old forum. to ignore that is ignorant, i"m almost positive any moderator of that forum doesnt like the lay out either. i base that theory off of lack of moderation there now and the fact thats is such a cluster **** theres no way they can moderate it in a organized manor.
So then, why is nothing being done to correct the search function in the new classified? As I stated before, the new classified section would be just fine if you could actually search for something and get at least ONE hit on your search. I already read that the old classified section is not coming back, but why ignore the problems with the new one?

Guys, the search feature won't improve until you all help ME to fix it.
I've asked MANY times in this thread for help setting up the categories and things so that they are perfect for LS1Tech.
I have offered my help before, i am here, offering it again to sort out the search issues, but if nobody is going to work with me, I can not do it alone, I am not familiar enough with the LS1 engine and vehicles it comes in.
cheers,
robb

Bearcatt, you've proven that you cannot post with maturity in this thread. Robb can read your last post. If he takes offense to your cutesy little name play, he can take further action if he wishes.
Do not post in here again. You've made your point over the course of probably more than a dozen posts in here. You will be PM'ed this post as well.

I respect the mods and would never name call on here. I know several of the mods are just as fed up with this new classified section as we are but damn! It is so horrible I literally check LS1TECH about 1/4th as often as I used to so I know everyone else does the same. How is this benefitting the members at all? I welcome IB or any mod to explain to us how this change has been beneficial to anyone other than the owners who pimp the site out to ebay, cars.com and any number of other vendors. I honestly don't mean to stir the pot, I have read each and every post in this thread and still don't understand how the change has benefitted anyone other than the owners.

Okay, tiptoeing on eggshells here...
I get that the new search feature is broken. I'm having the same problem that others are, namely that I didn't get any search results.
What I don't get is why so many people are DEMANDING that an extraneous feature work perfectly on a FREE FORUM. Most boards I'm on charge to post in the classifieds.
Yes, I called it an extraneous feature. You can still go onto the main classifieds board and use the "search this forum" button up on the top right. Just like searching any other forum. I've never had ANY problem searching the classifieds that way.
IMO, YMMV, $0.02 USD, etc
Oh, and my actual contribution to this thread: is there a way to go back and look at how the classifieds were set up before? I'm not sure that just saying "go back and look at it" is gonna help Robb out any.
-Jono (really tempted to make a comment about sand and female genitalia, but also hearing the mods loud and clear regarding language and maturity)

I have to laugh at this. I've been asking for help to do this for the past 2 months, and I have yet to get the assistance I need.
You can all CLEARLY see what the current category & parts fits options/choices are. I have even posted screenshots of the backend, to give you a better idea of what we can change. If the current selections are incorrect, all you need to do is tell me what to replace them with, and I will do it.
You are all content to keep demanding we switch it back, yet not a single person has offered anything constructive in terms of fixing what we have. I am not making any further changes without a little direction from all of you 'experts'.
