Help me understand the statement, thanks.

Posting of For Sale items has declined, that is very true. Not sure how Staff has any role in that :dunno:
Click to expand...
Sounds like a conspiracy.............just sayin.............

 
Instagram sites like stre8up have taken over.  FB marketplace and apps like offerup 

This site in general has way less traffic than it did years back 

 
Sand Cars are the only items I can see the value of having the old For Sale Ads.

I don't need to revisit an ad for a Modified Golf Cart listed in early 2000, before the Rhino craze hit.

That's like seeing pictures of the girls you dated during puberty......lower standards should not be accessible except in your own mind where your memory will lie to you anyways.

:lmao:

 
My bad I clicked on classifieds on top banner and dont see anything.   Yeah they are now in the sections buy and sell.  Then delete the damn classifieds duh!

 
I got to ask, the old site, every time you did a search it showed up in google,  now when you search something it seems like the only sites that show up are LS1-Tech and Yellow bullet,  does it cost more for the meta to show up on google, not sure how it works buts seems like less and less site show up on google now,  

 
I used the buy and sell forum all the time on the old site. Buying, selling, trading parts, tools, and other cool chit. It honestly made me check back on the forum more frequently hoping to score a good deal or see if someone was interested in what i had to sell. I listed one or two things on the new site but I don't bother with the classifieds section anymore. 

 
I preferred the buy/sell portion when it was just a few sections. There isn't enough traffic to warrant 20 different sections. Some of which don't get traffic for 6 months. I check in to buy/sell maybe once every couple of months. I think it's time for the site to condense itself. I never liked all the different forums for every little separate topic. Buy/sell:  Sandrail including parts, Quad/bike/atc including parts, side by side including parts, auto including parts, RV/trailer including parts, and other for sale. I would even be happy with just a single buy/sell forum. Simplify and the site will grow again.

 
And get rid of that foreign sounding classified section with its "adverts". Double forums are wasted opportunity. 

 
I used to buy everything off this site.  Now its all on FB Marketplace
