Until the new one is up and tested and used in a fully functional manner I'm not even considering changing it back.
I want a system people can use to buy and sell items, provide feedback in an easy format, and be easily searchable. Having them in the forums was just leading to clutter in lots of cases. And I am not worried abotu someone having to take the extra time to place multiple "free" ads when we had to spend as much of our own time moderating the olds ads for all the meaningless banter.
This is the type of system we are going to, it will work once given a solid chance to prove itself. If it falls flat on it's ass after a long run then i will evaluate it then, but not until then.
Of course I could always go back to the old way, and slap on a $1 fee to start a new thread of any kind in the classifieds area. And have it be 100% open game
