Definitely the cleanest and most organized method. I would support this.

I like PSA's
Charles is unique and a treasure.

Hmmm - and about all those OT threads in "General Discussion" ...

This is the best idea.

A separate forum would still leave the "New Posts" view clogged.

[johnniecakes]

How about you only post a PSA if you are willing to facilitate? Otherwise they are just clutter

yes. this 100%.

also Charles is the man. So lets five him his subforum and this way it will make everyone happy.

I would urge anyone who’s life and identity is wrapped up in the goings-on in the Classifieds section to get outside and ride your bike. Remember, you can only ride one at a time.

And if you think you are getting beat out because someone lets the world know about a bike you want, please remember - this is the internet.

And finally, if you don’t think you will enjoy what’s at a link posted here, don’t click it. Really just don’t.

But I want the Internets to show only the stuff I'm interested in, nothing else!

I like the PSAs that Charles and others post. They are easy to skip if you are not interested.

I feel like this concern is because a merchant is feeling a sense of competition. Competition is good for the market, if there was any competition.

All of your points are spot on and here we go again with trying to change Paceline as if something is really wrong. And we went through this same argument not too long ago! Almanac is calling for a roughl winter. This thread confirms it.

I think PSAs are fine, in moderation. no need for separate sub-forums...I think cnighnor got the message.

however, I could live with the 4 sub-forums... even though I think it's unneeded and ridiculous complexity.

[saab2000]

Have a sub-forum or ban them. They’re annoying and not at all in the spirit of the classifieds.

It’s easy to put something up for sale and have it on page 3 within a day. Not a fan of a dozen “bumps” either. There’s an auction site out there for stuff that won’t sell. Price it at a buck and it’ll sell.
