Cleaner classifieds section
Cleaner classifieds section
Just a small suggestion
How about a new layout on the classifieds section? You could have a section for parts, for cars, and for misc objects. This could help people eliminate seeing things like ps2/audio equip/my house for sale when they're just looking for an exhaust. It could go something along the lines of:
Classifieds section header
---------------------------------
Mitsubishi cars for sale
Non-Mitsubishis for sale
Evolution parts for sale
Lancer parts for sale
Other car parts for sale
Misc objects for sale
Wanted (could be about anything)
You could even add extra forums if you wanted to break it into suspension/dress-up/engine/etc.
It's much cleaner this way and would be a better way to go for a website that has become as big as evom has. The current layout was fine back in 2002 when there were 3000 members, but it's just getting crazy now. 3 pages in before you even see yesterday's posts.

I was thinking the same thing, good idea. 
There are quite a lot of classified posts. They usually fall off to Page2 the same day or next day so 9 times out of 10 you gotta do a search for what you're looking for.

i agree also. i posted someting like this a little while back and i got some replys of no. i still think it would be so much better. no offense to anyone with an evo, but i don't have one, and more than half the time, i don't need parts from one. just as you guys don't need stuff from us unevolved guys.
hmm.. i wonder how long it'll be until someone with full administrative privileges sees this post and i find out if i wasted my breath (or rather, put stress on my fingers) for nothing.

What about not spliting anything but adding a subforum for just forum specific clasifieds.
For example, in US Lancer Audio and Security have a Fs/WTB subforum with the same mods as the USLAS. This would give those looking for audio stuff for just the lancer be able to find just those parts. Same thing with Evo and RA forums.
But keep the current classifieds forum for general stuff, EVO/RA/US stuff and misc. stuff as well. Does that make sense? I'm kinda tired, so if anyone has questions about the idea post them and I'll get to them when it's not 4 AM.
