Countless times I have tried to edit or delete old ads that no longer apply with no luck. Also many times I have requested old ads where the parts are sold to be deleted also with no luck, the best I can do is post a response to the ad saying the part is sold.


Just a thought - These old ads that no longer apply must be costing the administrators of this sight something, I like this sight very much. I would like to see an improvement where those of us that post ads could edit or delete them as applicable.
I don't believe we've ever allowed editing past 30 days? I can't remember ever allowing that. In fact, I think you have to have a plugin on VB just to allow that because its a security risk...

Which suddenly, it makes sense why Pluck was having issues... I hadn't thought of that. The only way around it would be to make Pluck a moderator.

As for ads, we leave them up because I value old ads. It lets you go back and see what things were/are selling for.
