Is it me or has dealers taken over the classified sections instead of using the dealer classifieds?

Too many guns for sale.., just filter or block whoever you don’t want to see as stated above ^ I really don’t mind the dealers most are good people and they list some good items.
I'm guessing the dealers do that because so many people don't remember to look in the "dealer" section. I know that I rarely look there - nothing against the dealers, just don't remember to check there.

It's not just you..
Take a bullet for the team.
Send Admin an IM demanding that members should be allowed to post their stuff for sale in the dealers classifieds.
It's only fair.

Pay for a membership and then you get to have an opinion.
Members pay $24 a year and can post in the WTS/WTB/WTT forums.
Dealers pay $125 a year and can do everything members can AND they can have their own forum and they can post in Dealer Classified. They can also delete from their own forum and from Dealer Classifieds
For the extra $101 a year Dealers pay, you don't think they get less access than $24 memberships, do you?
Lots of people do not look at the Dealer Classified which is why many dealers post in the other areas instead/also.
I pay for this account ($24) and a dealer account (@Dean Safety $125) so pay $149 a year to post here. I rarely post in the WTS/WTB/WTT area except from my personal account. Even if you limited dealers from these areas, they would just have a regular green account and post.
And I agree with someone else's comment, if you are not at least green, you should not be able to block people with paid memberships. The price of features...

I’ve said this a few times. They get thier own forum and get to shit ours up cause they pay like $75-$100 more.
The mods basically say go f*** yourself and deal plebs. Typical of any government or people with power. The money we pay is piddley winks, not enough to get a say. So just pay your $25 and like it.

I have an email from Derek(main admin) saying he was going to to do something to block dealers from posting in the regular classifieds in April of 2024. Said it would take a little time to implement. Well…that didn’t happen.
..edit. It was not an email is was a direct message from
When I got a warning for re-listing an item for sale. Was the time when dealers where really spamming the board and you would put something for sale and within 4 hours you were already on page 3

It's not exactly a democracy here. You pay to use. not to get a say.

Not the thread we wanted, but the thread we needed.
I had to make a new name …decade of having better shit to do
Now I just need to sell a couple guns and I’ll be gone again
Yeah, why would you want to read gun ads on a shooting forum?
I'd rather hear about your scrotum rash or look at blurry pictures of bigfoot flying a UFO.
Keep the shooting out of Northeast Shooters!
