Only an NES'er can complain about more options to purchase a weapon.
For the punishment of the masses on NES, I will now raise the prices on my Bushmaster and LMT lowers in the WTS forum.
So if one of you guys want one of my lowers, you can thank OP for the higher price you have to pay.

I just blocked everybody except Rivers556. It worked. I don't see any dealers. Also everyone else is gone except Rivers556. I don't think I like the forum as much now. It just seems empty and lonely.

Your price is now $45 more than the listed price, if you want it.
No, I’m not talking about clicking a MA law related thread. I’m talking about when the thread title and OP is ambiguous to the state of residence.You clicked on the MA related thread though and if you didn't click on it.... you wouldn't sub it and you'd never see anything in it. It's like when somebody posts an NFL thread and then somebody bitches about the NFL well all they had to do was just not click on the thread to begin with and then they'd never be thinking about it constantly. But it is like a sandbox to a cat you just want to poop in it.
What I mean is when MA residents post in the general forum instead of MA law forum and the thread topic is related to MA law specifically but they don’t state that it pertains to MA and they give no mention that they’re in MA. Like “Can I carry a gun with a 15 round magazine in it if I only put ten rounds in it?”
MA residents often times post questions directly related to MA laws in the general forum but don’t indicate the state that they’re referring to and seem to assume everyone here just is subject to MA law like them.
I understand that but honestly wgaf. If I was a non-moderator I would be ignoring the thread and just moving on... you guys have a luxury that you don't never take advantage of. Actually I would be putting idiots like that on my ignore list so that I just don't see a post from them ever again... but as moderators most of us don't have them on ignore. Also for whatever it's worth we usually try to take those and shovel them into gun laws or whatever but sometimes you miss a thread here or there. A pro tip though it also helps if you actually report it.
I hear you. I don’t want to spend the time to report it. It’s not the end of the world. Just posting about it here because this is a thread about posting it in the correct forums, and that’s one of the ones I see a lot.

Well there's only six topics on the first page in the General Firearms area today that don't belong there. So that's better than normal.
Maybe the header should be changed, people think it's a general area not general firearms?

OP has moderator ambitions. He’ll make everything conform to his way of thinking.
Maybe a divorce is in his future.

Sure they do. It's called "search". Works wonders.

Encouraging people to post comments in topically suitable forums can be a bit of a challenge, but here are some strategies that might help:
- Clear Guidelines: Make sure the forum has clear guidelines about where to post different types of content. This can help users understand where their comments belong.
- Moderation: Active moderation can help guide users to the appropriate forums. Moderators can move misplaced posts and gently remind users of the guidelines.
- Engagement: Engage with users in the correct forums. When users see active discussions and responses in the right places, they are more likely to post there.
- Incentives: Offer incentives for posting in the right forums. This could be in the form of badges, points, or other rewards.
- User Education: Educate users about the benefits of posting in the right forums. Explain how it helps keep discussions organized and makes it easier for everyone to find relevant information.
- Prominent Links: Make it easy for users to find the right forums by providing prominent links and navigation options.
- Feedback: Provide feedback to users who post in the wrong forums. A friendly reminder can go a long way in encouraging proper behavior.

I have two 3d printers available - one is a preban and the other is an 80% frame... 10% off for NES - only $4500.00 for the pair.
Neither one will rat you out to ATF.
Are lowball offers accepted?
Or, do you know what you've got?
Asking for a low post count friend.

I didn't read your post because you're not a dealer.
Or if they put the dollar sign here, 500$.
I've actually seen ads with guns I'm interested in, but I can't do business with these zipper heads.
Also as a guy who used to buy and sell a lot of used guns for my own recreational purposes this problem you speak of actually isn't a problem because people who are actually looking for something we'll find it even if it's been pushed down if you pay just do you really want to only settle selling stuff to low IQ people who give up after the first page?
Same argument can be used to support restricting dealers to their own forums and Dealer Classifieds, or not allowing them to bump their ads in the regular classifieds.
Dealers post in the regular sections and bump because they get more views/clicks/leads that way. And I can see how it can be mildly annoying for a private seller to be buried under a wave of dealer ads.
Yes, dealers pay 5x more. How many dealers and how many green members are here? If you take the dealer's ability to post everywhere, wouldn't there still be enough value to make it worth being here? If yes, will the majority of paying members support such change? Seems like an easy poll to do, you can even give dealers 5x weight on their vote. Owner(s) then can decide if they want to change anything.
Status quo is fine too, these monthly threads are entertaining!

Nobody cares aside from like 10 people. Everyone else just uses the classifieds.
Were you reading my post as I was typing? Scary fast response!
Maybe a lot of people care, but do not want to be on the receiving end of "always been this way" and "dealers pay $125" copypasta in these threads. Easy to find out if someone cares enough to post a poll.

If they care at all it's because they're probably unsuccessful at selling overpriced crap. They post an ad, get no responses see the dealer ads selling the same shit NEW for less and somehow its the dealers fault.

Yes, this is another thing thread starters are usually accused of.
True or not in each case, still does not negate the view/click/lead argument. Visibility matters.
