Devs! New Forum Needed!

How about an "Auction/Swap Meet" Forum?  There are so many threads here about Buying/selling and trading that it is getting hard to find other other threads.  Even though we have Auctions, people are promoting them in the General Forum.  I understand that but I really hate wading through all the Auction threads.  We also have a number of "For Sale" and "Will Trade" threads.  Earlier, of the first 25 threads in this Forum, 12 concerned selling and trading.  personally, I am not really interested.  Until I have a particular need, I just don't even look at the Auctions.  If I need something and can't find it in the Auctions, I'll ask my Friends.  I can make or find almost everything I need.  Only rare items such as Beta and Alpha special items and a rare Music Block or two are interesting to me.

Without Street Projects we still have a lot of selling and trading going on.  When Street Projects begin again, well, forget any other Topic in this Forum besides selling and trading.  There will be other Topics but they are going to fall to the bottom and move to page 2 rapidly.  That's a thought, maybe I should just move to Page 2 - Lol!

  • A separate forum would definitely be helpful. Or filters. Or both.

  • New forum. Or make the auction market a little better.

  • There are numerous threads in the idea section pointing out the necessity for a "Trade" forum, but the devs seem to be quite uninterested.

  • + 1 I like the notion of a separate forum thread.

  • I believe we will have in-game advertisement by players. (not by corporation, ie Pepsi etc.)

    So, if we have a trade/sell/buy forum, then in-game advertisement will be pointless to use.

    I don't think they will release in-game advertisement soon because they are heavy working on customize for housing. Never know, they might surprise us one day.

    ETA: Forgot to mention, there is a group - Trading/ Pre-Auction Group

  • I understand the annoyance of for sale/trade threads but i do not agree that they need their own forum. I love the auction setup the way it is! Woo hoo buy 40 mushrooms ingame for $60 and sell them on auction for $800! Please devs keep it the way it is!

  • There have been a lot of suggestions for that.

    The trading group has been really unhelpful for me.. -_-

  • @OL. Eh, you do understand what is going on here, right? Emblems, cubimals, icons and services all cannot be auctioned, so people either try to sell them on chat, or in forum threads. That has nothing to do with the auction set up.

    And yes, we need a separate forum, they should've done this yesterday. The number of buy/sell threads in General is getting pretty awful.
