Title: Can we have a clean up of the auction subforum?
Post by: dogie on September 14, 2014, 07:02:14 PM
At the moment its just being bombarded with threads for domain after domain after domain which no one actually wants. Each person opens 5-15 threads in an 'auction' style selling one domain in each, lasting for several weeks and they fill the entire board. There are currently THIRTY on the front page and only 3 have any activity in.

They should be in WTS, and if there is enough of them in their own subforum. But at the moment its making auctions suboptimal and no one is even bidding in these threads...

I second this. Auction section is being cluttered by a handful of entities. Its good if the domain auction threads by any individual are merged into one.

The Digital Goods section has the same problem as well, albeit to a lesser extent. I think another subforum of either Digital Goods or Auctions for domain sales would be useful, since this has been a problem for a while.

What I think Theymos make new sub forum for only Domain.

All listing related to Domain, doesn't matter, it's buy/sell thread or auction will belong to that Sub.

A "domain names & websites for sale" subforum would unclutter the marketplace a lot.

I agree. There is way too much of the market place (both the digital goods and auctions sections) that are full of trash domains. The fast majority of the domains for sale likely will never have any kind of real value (IMO) anyway. I think there should be a subfoum in the market place for domains and then a child board for domain auctions within that subforum.

This would not only clean up both subforums, but also likely cut back on a lot of the bump spam that will inevitability be in both subforums.
