    Yep. Once things settle we'll be assigning some mods ... now that we have the tools to do so!

    This might be my favorite change of them all.

    That's really good news, hopefully it means more fun features for us. Also less poo flinging.

    We're aiming to actually hire people to handle all of this tech stuff this year; like new features. Until then it's just me.

    I think it'll be nice to have replies. I just started trading and I think this will provide a better chance to get an idea for value/fairness than the general trading forum provided.

    I agree to this, hopefully there is little to no douchebaggery in the ISO forum

    Woohoo! Open posting and mods - these new forums keep getting better and better...

    IMO mods will completely solve the "douchebaggery" problems of old. A few bad apples routinely spoiled the bunch.

    I would vote for it going back to Post only. I'm already seeing a few of the completely pointless "bm sent" replies. =(

    I like the idea of being able to respond to posts but if there is a way to not have that response bump the thread to the top that would be great. When the change went to post only it was easy to see which trade offers you already read. Now it is more difficult because you're not quite sure how far to go back.

    I just came here to suggest this same thing. It was nice having everything stay in the order it was posted. It was a lot easier to keep track. I encourage replies though if there is proper moderation. Already seeing too many useless "BM sent" replies.

    I'm still relatively new around here and to trading around here, but FWIW I love the change back to being able to post in FT:ISO threads. At least until someone changes my mind.

    Is it possible under this new system for an OP to lock the thread once the offer is closed? I don't see this capability. Hmmm...

    By having it not be post only, the shit and garbage floats to the top. Shitstorms maintain a presence, actual legitimate trades get buried. Not a good idea.

    I love the forums back to replies.

    I also love the fact that the trade forums will have Mods.

    I nominate me. :grinning:

    Mods will be sweeeet. No more malarkey and weed out the riff-raff.

    That's great news. If this is the case, I vote for allowing replies again.
