We all, including me have to stay on top of updating our sale/trade threads. it will save us all a little aggravation and time. most of us are busy with work, kids, family, bills, etc. and have little time for the hobby as is.
this is just a friendly suggestion so please don't take offense to this thread it is not pointed at anyone I am guilty too!

I did mean to thank you yesterday for pointing out those updated threads to me that I have since deleted, Soundwave. Noone likes to waste time on figures that are long gone. If anyone would like to point out any that are outdated and can be removed, just let me know.

i posted something similar to this request in the "forum & website related" section. didn't know if i should post stuff outside of an actual sale/trade/want thread here. i know i have a bunch of crap threads lingering in this section. i'm going to work through and delete them now.

I have spent the majority of the day going through the Vintage, Modern and Other Sales threads and I have deleted threads by those who are no longer members of the Forum.
What I would like to see (it is not in the rules, just my own preference) is that everyone have one thread for haves and one for wants. If there is one for each in the Vintage and one for each in the Modern for the appropriate items, I have no complaints. If everyone would have a chance look through these sections to see what is outdated. If you no longer have the item available or have found items in your wants, it would be nice if the old threads were deleted. The problem is that you (the memebers) can delete only what you have entered, not the comments someone has entered in the thread about a price, a comment on the item, etc. Of course if you are the only one who commented in the thread, you can remove all of the posts and it disappears.
Soundwave took the initiative to go through some and made an entry simply as "Delete" in ones that are outdated. You can either do that (if you have only a few) or send me a PM telling me the date of the last entry in the thread and I can do it (if there are many).
The brings me to questions for each of the commentors so far:
Soundwave - I noted that there are several threads by you through my searching this afternoon. Do you have more to delete or do you want them to remain?
Slm2024 - As above, you cannot remove other members comments and we do not want threads remaining that have only the others' comments with yours deleted. If you have not done it yet, it may be best to follow what I have suggested above.
Den82 - I see in your Sale/trade thread that you refer people to your want list externally. I assume you want me to proceed with deleting everything else, but I just want to confirm it. I like a clean forum too.
