    Unfortunately there is no means to send out a email/pm/notification that a users post will be deleted without a add-on/modification/hack. Auto relisting was a huge problem with the prior incarnation of the classifieds. Years old ads were automatically renewing and sellers never came back to...

    I'm all ears for anything that will deal with the ethics/morals/and other pains of the classifieds. But my explanation of the security aspects were based on goldneagle's comment. I was giving the reasoning behind why I'm not about to add another piece of code.

    I'm not upset over this. I started the thread to ask for views on the matter. I could have just as easily made the change and said "this is how it is".

    Nope. We've had that discussion before. We put it to a vote. (It was excluded, then people got upset that they received no views for their ads) They go to Steel Soldiers LLC (Chris) how they're used, I do not know. But he owns the site and is in charge of that. I can say this though...

    Care to expand upon that? I'm just not willing to further compromise the security of the site. All of these add-ons/modifications/hacks come from third parties. They all can potentially give hackers another means to attack the site. I know there's been a number of these third party...

    Seller can't PM pics. So it'd behoove him to simply post them. Much like how craigslist, ebay, exc. all work. Editing a post will not "bump" it. Time limit on the first listed date would cause users ads they are maintaining to be deleted.

    Ahh that's another good point I missed. Indeed that would help with the prune. A little background. I prune the classifieds once a week based on last reply date. So there's times where someone has posted something, yet never replied to anyone, and the thread has been "bumped" up by people...

    We've been trying to address some concerns as of late with the classifieds. Internally I had proposed making a change to the classifieds where only originators of ads could post/reply to them. I proposed it more towards the fact that it would cut down on needless commentary, negative comments...
