I don't want to use the marketplace - auctions board.

[Jet Cash]

I was going to list some Bitcoin related domain names for sale, and it appears that the popular place for such sales is the marketplace-auctions board. However, about half of the sales that I saw there were for Bitcoin Talk accounts, and I don't want to support or frequent a board that promotes these transasctions. Is there a board that can be used exclusively for "honest" Bitcoin related products?

Apparently the marketplace(altcoin)happens to be the appropriate board for such advert..
And I don't see how your "honest" advert would mean you promoting the "dishonest" transactions that go on in such boards

[Jet Cash]

I've got a traditional English attitude, and I don't want to be seen to be in the midst of a load of account sales. Maybe it's a stupid attitude, but we have to live by our own standards of morality.

I am more sure you made the Bitcoin board yourself, (Is there a board that can be used exclusively for "honest" Bitcoin related products?).
Like you make a board: (I've added a new board to the Fit to Talk forum).
If there is an idea you are implementing an exclusive Bitcoin transaction, I registered the first and Bitcoin Transactions.

Wouldn't it actually help improve the marketplace - auctions board if you create a topic there on what you're selling, as it actually adds something to that board that's not bitcointalk accounts? I don't know, it depends on the point of view I guess.

Agree. Legit deals would help to improve marketplsce. We shouldn't let account sellers to completely takeover this board. Unfortunately, account sales is allowed here and we are forced to share marketplace board with all these shady sellers.
Also, you can use Digital goods sub-board if you're going to sell domains for fixed price:

You want theymos to create a new auction section for you because you don’t want to use the existing one?

I'm surprised you have an account on bitcointalk at all if those are your standards (lol). 

I'd say just go ahead and do your selling in the Marketplace or Auctions sections.  Yes, those sections are loaded with shady individuals, but perhaps you can bring your couth British bearing to the slums and show 'em how to do things properly.

Firstly you're on bitcoin talk, in the midst of tons and tons of spammers,scammers,account sellers/buyers ETC....

And you posting in the marketplce--auctions,would simply be you doing business,no strings attached whatsoever,you could self moderate the thread to keep it clean and free from those you're trying to avoid in the first place..

And you're @Jetcash,no ones gonna think you're in there spamming or trading accounts..
Now that's the good part of being a reputable member of this forum

If you want to auction something, you can optionally use the auctions sub. You can otherwise use the sub you would normally list items for sale to auction these items.

In your case, you can list your domains in the Digital Goods sub. This is also filled with a lot of junk, however without commenting on your domains specifically, most domain listings are going to be junk.

In addition, Jet Cash is quite recognizable authority on the forum. Such a move would really help improve the marketplace - auctions board and attract other "honest" users. After all, this would mean that the branch is used not only to sell bitcointalk accounts, but also for other purposes that the respected members of the forum try to realize.

Try Digital goods , I have purchased and sold some domains in that section without a little spam.
Also, this section does not contain selling accounts as much as scam attempts.

Auctions: Good section if you have an account with a distinguished name and not to sell many domains"Regardless of your principles."

I was going to suggest that board...

Also, I believe there is no problem to post your topic on services board.

I know it is not a service, but that board is very active . There are not many spammers, and you will have the best chances of selling your domains there. I have already seen some domains sellers there btw

I know what you feel OP since auction board is good for nothing with those thieves, hackers, or scammers in that section. Well, if it is like that then there should be some regularization that should be done in that section. Anyway, with or without restrictions on that part, we have already get used to it. I came to visit that section but I am not interested seeing things  that are being auction in that section.

You can leverage the signature feature for this. Respecting your decision

don't want to support or frequent a board that promotes these transasctions.

maybe you can change your signature to an advert creating awareness of your intention to sell those bitcoin related domain names, including a link to a blog or site (that's if you have one) with sale details. I believe this will create more exposure bringing in more customers due to your reputation on forum.

And you posting in the marketplce--auctions,would simply be you doing business,no strings attached whatsoever,you could self moderate the thread to keep it clean and free from those you're trying to avoid in the first place..

You can't create a self-moderated topic in Auctions (to prevent manipulation of auctions). Just like you can't edit or remove posts on that board.

Do we all do that, I thought it was just me....
And then there’s the point where they talk to you and you have to discretely find an exit. I’m sure a lot of these traditions stem from us finding stuff to do to waste time.

You can in the “goods” section...

[asche]

I totally understand your unwillingness to be an OP among all of these scambies selling accounts.

I'd like to see some moderation on these boards as well, including tagging/deleting every single account selling threads. However I don't see that happening any time soon.
It the mean time, all we can do is post as much legitimate stuff in it to make it better.

I'm not sure if this would be very efficient tho, I myself don't set mouse or keyboard in it anymore because of what you stated...

[krishnapramod]

Suggestions would end up theymos creating "exclusive honest boards" for everything. Let's suck it up. IMO, I haven't seen much of account sales on marketplace, maybe one or two in a week. Things are getting better. If we are going to find a fault in every board, what's done would be a wastage when it simply could be fixed with reporting and tagging (with the +1 restrictions).

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

Pardon me jet cash, On a totally unrelated note, why is reporting those thread of account selling considered to be a BAD report? Don't want to create a new thread asking this question but the very first day I visited the marketplace board then saw those thread of account selling, I reported almost all and it resulted to 30+ bad reports
with such feedback I'm sure any chances of getting a reports badge (when introduced) is dead Also i created a new reply so I can get a quick answer
