The idea is a good idea, however the mods are expecting us to post links to the master threads. There will be a lot less RTM's, so many threads will just start cluttering everything up.

I know for myself that I stopped most of my RTM'ing because of the links, and I'm constantly seeing pointless new threads lingering around that should have been killed right away.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

If it is a great deal than yes. If it is a standard sale than no. Tried explaining that in the OP.

Maybe, everyone can edit the topic subject, and write - DEAD.

The only problem is everyone's "great deal" is something else.

For those of you who are in favor of master threads,
Why don't we have one Deals master thread, and every deal should be posted there?

That would take care of the "clutter problem" as there will only be 1 thread on this board? ;)

People don't want to sift through a thread like that to actually find a deal.

Also, I sometimes want things to go out of "updated" and into  "unread", but if you ignore, it's gone from both.

Yes!

not the same topic exactly, but in the spirit of the thread's name:

what do people think is it time for a "Deals/Deal Requests master thread master thread" especially for deal requests?

i think it will help people find the deal's they are looking for

Just post it in the regular thread and make the header clear that your looking vs posting a deal.

the problem is that I think many people have a hard time finding the right master thread to post in and instead start a new thread Asking for there specific deal

Thus the need to create a master thread with links to All of the master threads... are you confused yet I think I might be :o :-[ ;D

So for one The person posting does not see The deals Already posted

And secondly it adds many threads which in my opinion diminishes the value and ability to use this forum significantly
