delete it. im sick of seeing sale threads that have no pics. either get a new mod and delete every fucking thread with no pics or make it so you cant create the thread if you dont have pics.

I have bought and sold a lot, really sold a lot - and I have sold quick w/o pics due to low prices. I understand skis, boots and clothes .... need pics and detailed descriptions but I have sold a lot of binders w/o pics.
Simply: pics take a lot of time on this site, and not supported by some browsers. If we could sort the forums by views or response or have a flyover that shows the description - would be better time spent than deleting worthless sales. If there are no pics then ignore, or the sale is too good to be true.

You really expect us to monitor every single sell/trade thread? That's excessive and unnecessary. If it pisses you off that much, report it when you see it.

get a new mod for ST only. he/she can monitor which threads have pictures or not.

i've seen a couple posts from you so far about "really expecting" the mods to do a lot of stuff. while i totally agree with you and i know the mods have lives outside ns and can't be omnipresent on the internet, i think if there's shit that needs to be done there are ways of addressing that

the only exceptions should be if the item is brand new and being sold by a very established member with huge positive feedback.

I totally agree with you, and while we do obviously have lives outside of Newschoolers, being a moderator is a commitment and it's something to be taken seriously.
That being said, I just don't think that scanning every single BST thread to see if it has pictures or not is a moderator's job.
We aren't the police, it's up to the members of this site to use BST at their own discretion. If someone doesn't have pictures in their thread, you can either disregard it or ask them for pictures. It's that simple.
It's certainly not an issue of laziness and if it was a bigger problem, it would obviously be addressed and enforced.
