Some things that might make a difference, at least in concept (I'm not suggesting that all or any of these be done, but they are simply thoughts): 1) Require a tag for anything that is advertising. Even if the coders don't want to implement a change to the forum, make it a requirement that any subjects advertising anything at all begin with '[AD]' in the subject line. Likewise '[TS]' ('Tech Support'), '[TT]' ('Tech Tips' or' Too Technical') and '[OT]' tags could be mandatory and threads which contain said content and do not have them can be deleted or modified to have them as need be. You could even stack the tags -- for instance, if I were to post a picture of my Samurai Armour WIP and explain how I did the faux-bumpiness that actually wraps around instead of going flat on the edge, I would begin the subject with '[AD][TT]'. 2) Implement ignore-by-user capability. This has been a big suggestion here by me anyway. Make it so you can ignore an individual -- any threads they start will be hidden and any messages in other threads will be marked 'Ignored' and not displayed. Not only would this help stop a lot of flamewars when people who consistently piss other people off can be shunned on an individual basis, but if someone flooded the Pose forum with lots of ads, you could ignore them and never see their posts rather than punishing an entire socioeconomic class. 3) Simply make the rule that no one is allowed to mention price and/or location of sale of any WIP that is intended to be sold. People could ask, but responses would have to be IMs as you could not post the answer. This way I could very simply post my M3 Samurai and not say a word that it was going to be for sale at DAZ or that it was going to cost however much. Note that in my posts I don't believe I did that (if I did it was in response to a question). I'm not going back to check right now, but this is further underscored by the fact that Clint actually IMed me asking where I was planning to sell it, and I had to tell him that by contract I had to offer it to DAZ first, and that I thought it was likely to go in there.
