These terms are already clearly laid out. Whether or not someone chooses to read them is their decision. Just because you didn't read the speed limit sign doesn't mean you can do 120 mph down the street.

The ToS revolves around the legal rights of Newschoolers.com and it's users and does not need to contain the forum rules; nor is it an effective place to put them for visibility.

I'd pay for an ON3P buy/sell subsection forum.

I think there should be a form you fill out for threads. Like for each item, a form comes up that has item, condition, specs, users decription, picture (required) and asking price. And the option to add another item, which makes the blank form come up again. Sort f like how eBay has specifics that you fill out, followed by a personal description and a picture

Ive lost all hope for b/s/t

me too. i have 2 suits up and i though they would have been gone within a week at the most. and i know for a fact they would have even a year and a half ago

I will gladly just moderate the b/s/t

Ive been thinking bst is a mess the last few times ive visited.
 one thing i think is getting ridiculous is the number of sales that are not even close or related to ski gear. some is acceptable, but not 5 threads in a row trying to sell t-shirts at 15-20$ a pop that your mom bought you. first that is way too much for a shirt, second, theyre all size L and smaller, im over 6', though im skinny, a large barely hits my waste. Lastly, no one else wants to buy them so dont bump your shitty sale  all day erry day while the ski stuff gets forgotten

maybe a ski related b/s/t and a non ski related b/s/t?


-my 2 cents

i think sub-divisions of s/t

i knew youd love theclap as a mod

I wouldn't mind a s/t police state

I'd be boss at it

Just some input... Two things i'd like to see added would be

1. Clear prices listed alongside item. I absolutely hate when someone asks for "offers".
2. Require a photo with both the item for sale and a handwritten username visible.

might have already been said, but i dont feel like reading. i would split it into brand sections, then into skis and boots also.

Mods: Seems like the overriding response here is that Sell/Trade needs to be changed. Just wondering, if there is a projected time when this project may start being worked on? Or is it never really gonna happen because it's too big of a task? Just curious. Thanks.

Sagaa.'s new account Friend. keeps bumping his threads every 10 minutes or so, something needs to be done about the constant bumping IMO

lets get a petition bro
