I used to go to Unanswered Threads and ANSWER them - to be NICE

[MamaG]

now its full of for sale stuff - any chance of for sale stuff NOT being in there?

Oh, yes, please!

Me too, rarely bother now because of the sale stuff.

i went to answer an unanwered thread once to be nice and got shouted at by tiktok

so i don't bother

Did you stuffit? hehe

I rarely get a response back from the OPs when I answer their unanswereds. So now I think "fuck 'em".

Too many there.
So many 'for sale'.
Also, do they 'drop off' the unanswered list after a couple of days? Becuase if I post and no one answers I only check for replies by clicking 'threads I'm on' or 'threads I started' and they only go back a couple of days don't they...

If you goto customise talk board, you can change the number of days the 'threads i'm on' stays on for.

i did mamag

the breast bottle issue is sacred ground i shall not soil it again

We'll look into this and come back to you.

I've done this in the past too and had no response from OP so I stopped aswell

Just to let you know that we've been given the nod and techs will take the 'for sale' threads out of 'unanswered threads' over the next week or so. We'll let you know once they've gone.

Thanks rachel

Quick update - we're on the case with this but we have been reprimanded by tech(s) for saying 'in a week or so' cos it's more complicated job than we thought so bear with us - we haven't forgotten!

I have a genuine unanswered thread in there now - nothing to do with selling things (you can have my mil for free if you want! )

hint hint

I have also suggested this in the past. Glad it is being looked into.

I agree - I dont do the unanswered threads so often these days because of all the classifiedcluttering it up.

MamaG, you've just sent loads of people off to answer an hours-old question about pie crusts!

I'm special

They have gone

I think anyway

I can't see them {for sale} on mine this afternoon

The power of MamaG
