I agree. There needs to be some sort of control over what is allowed in the spam section of a BOATING forum. Cars, houses, washers and driers, etc. really have no place there. Also, if we could require a price along with the posts it would make it easier, IMO. I would like to see the notices about items already on e bay disappear as well. If you want to pass a good deal on to fellow HB forum members use the spam section. That statement hardly applies if you've put your stuff on ebay before you let HB members even know you're selling it. I think the section should be restricted to boat related items, and maybe tow rigs. A single day's posts can take 3 or 4 pages, and of that, only about a page is actually boat related. ............Just my .02......MP
Rant retraction: Sorry, I just get frustrated by the overall cost of our sport. If we, as boaters, as racers, as packrats can pass on a deal to a fellow boater/racer/packrat then we have a chance to keep costs down as we pursue or goals. I always try to pass along items at a greatly reduced price to help others. I realize there are very costly items in this catagory of "used" parts and pieces, but what kind of a deal is it if has to be on ebay to sell it? Retraction over.........MP
