The joys of being a forum admin

Email I received

I found your site while searching for a new battery, a motorcraft BXT 59-540 , when I signed up I found it had been sold, I suggest that once you sell an item you remove it, it sold for 50.00 and I found a new one for 69.99 @ http://www.firestonecompleteautocare...method=vehicle , so it is just as well, but it is annoying to see your listings are not up to date.

My response

Do you mean this Battery?

The thread is from 2009 and the battery is marked sold in the post 3 years ago.
All classifieds over 90 days go to an archive.

I suggest you look at the entire thread, dates of postings and the site structure before you go complaining.

There are thousands off classifieds that have been posted here by many different members. Anything active is in the classifieds anything old goes to the classified archive.

We do not delete ads as they provide a method of providing feedback for the sale for future transactions.

exactly my point what good are 3 year old posts??? by the way all 3 attachments are bad that are listed and they say to notify the administrator, is that you? I can't believe that people that visit this site and see 3 year old sites even thing you are still in business. How often do you purge the site o old postings? seems like it must take a considerable amount of space up, or did I find the only post 3 years old. I won't bother you again, so when anyone does a search from Google they go into this archive? You will hear no more complaints from me.

My response

Here is a very large mustang forum classified section

http://www.modularfords.com/f180/index161.html

Look at that posts from 2007!!!

Maybe you can email them and complain also.

Have a nice day.

That's funny! I find it funny when people do random questions and responses to like 3 year old threads. Bringing threads back from the dead. Like you said, just look at the dates on the thread. plus it wouldn't benefit a forum if they deleted old posts. A lot of people like to go back and research older stuff and if it's deleted obviously you can't do that.
