Given we've had a small influx of "for sale" topics recently, what are your thoughts on adding a "Stickied" topic in here?
Give me a bit of feedback please.
In fact, I've sort of started one now, haven't I?
To hell with it.
Consider it done.
Then again. Maybe I should create a separate thread - so each sale can be viewed separately.

Perhaps in the heading they could be edited to say SOLD if they can't just be deleted. Otherwise a running sticky and as each sale is completed the post just gets deleted?
Wasn't there a for sale or classifieds section before?
By "thread" I guess I mean what you mean by "sub forum".
Certainly I can see the benefit of each item or group of items having their own topic which allows the heading to be altered to reflect "SOLD" when that happens.
There was a REALSURF classified section not related to the forums IIRC.
And there may have been a "For Sale" section in the forums but I can't remember.

"Boards (and gear) for Sale" is what I would call a thread, or topic.
That's a topic (as in "New Topic" button you hit to start one).
"General surf discussion" is what I would call the sub forum it appears in.
Agreed. But I would also call it a Thread. However, I admit to not actually ever following tradition 
You might go off and organise all this and not see another flurry of sales until this time next year too?
Quite true. But it's also possible that it's very existence would promote more entries.

Thanks matticus. I'll probably go the second option. Just need to get a bit of time over the next few days.
Currently making (with the wife's help
) a couple of new board covers and hope to see some more waves tomoz.

Good stuff - and thanks for fixing up / reactivating my account too.
Not a problem.
I see your mate's on the board, too.
