:lol:
No one has to be here. A board is defined by its members, and if someone doesn’t like a board, they will simply stop posting. No one is ever going to think “Wow thank god this board lets me _____, my life has been made complete with my newfound freedoms!”
Truths:
The mods and admins of a board own the board, they can do whatever they want with it. The saying ‘If you dont like it, leave’ applies. However for this reason poor decisions by the staff of a board will cause membership/participation to decline. A forum with no activity is just another useless website. See ubrf -> nyspeed
Successful forums cater to their members, not overmoderate them with silly rules. I dont think this whole classifieds thing is a huge deal, but I do think that its a bad decision, and unfortunately takes a lot away from the ability to buy/sell here.
