Title: Request: "Mining Hardware" subforum in Marketplace
Post by: TheHarbinger on February 06, 2012, 01:20:53 AM
I would like to see a separate section in the market place for buying/selling of mining hardware, separate from the general "goods" section.

Because lets face it, 5970s and Maple Syrup don't belong together.

Yes, I would call this a good idea :)

They should be separated :)

Why not? They're both goods, and there aren't enough topics daily to make it difficult to distinguish what belongs to what category.

Keep it.

I think it would just organize everything a bit better

I agree, better organization and filtering.

Good Idea +1

The problem I see with that is that most hardware isn't necessarily usable only for mining. What do you think about "Computer hardware"?

That makes sense.


Also, if selling activity increases enough, maybe also consider separating digital goods from tangible ones.

Digital Goods (from the past several days):
-eGiftcards
-Steam Codes
-Game Keys
-Accounts
-Programs

Tangible Goods (from the past several days):
-Syrup
-Rare Metals
-Clothing
-Music Accessories
-Dog  ;D

I could volunteer several hours per week moderating that if that's alright with you.

Yeah I just automatically figured it would be computer hardware shoulda made that clearer

Might be a good idea to make a old or trash directory to move the dead threads to also, overclockers does this and it makes everything nice and neat..... although thats alot of work so I don't blame you if you don't  :P

Transferred all computer hardware product threads from the last week over to the new sub-forum.

Oh, great theymos!

At least admins on some forums actually take meta posts into account!
