Hi all,

Following up on another thread I made when the new market place was put into action here .. I was talking to someone last night who wanted to sell some website advertising.. pointed them at this place.. they came back to me and said the market place seems pretty dead ..

I must admit since it changed from the old format I have not really used it very much.. made a few bids on things but not sold anything of my own.. where I was using it before twice maybe 3 times a week.

Looking through it.. seems a few adverts get placed... never get any bids.. and never get updated either... also seems to be loads of spam in there now just pushing their websites.. not selling anything.

It's real sad to see the market place limping along like it is now when it was such a hit before... I would love to see it reverted back... well done for trying this out..but it seems to me it didnt work. There are other options though.. namepros approach for example.

Anyway I don't mean to be negative.. I just loved the market place before and don't like seeing it being used so little.

All the best,
Sir P

IMO I hated the marketplace because it was such a spam magnet.

I can't speak for Tim, but I still have a hunch that development is going to take place for the marketplace in a not-so-distant future.

I think the market place would be better in a normal forum view format, just like all the other forums.

Cheers

Tim & Lee have both been around and appreciate feedback. I know that the way the marketplace is now is not what is intended for the end product.

I wonder if you have the same problem but at the new market place-freelance jobs, when I go to page 3 the content is same with page 1 and page 4 with page 2.
