On the trading forum can we make it a part of the rules that the country of trade must be in the title? As it is getting increasingly annoying when I am from the U.K to search though 30 threads to find one that actually trades within the U.K. I know this is just me being irate but just a suggestion.
 
RE: Trading Forum...

I'm interested in what other international traders (non-US) think about this. Would it be easier to find trade threads that way for you?
 
RE: Trading Forum...

But for me to view your signiture, I would have already had to click your thread...?
 
RE: Trading Forum...

^What? Our signature would be in every post we make, including ones on your thread...
 
RE: Trading Forum...

My thoughts are if you do ship outside the US that you include that in the thread title.
 
RE: Trading Forum...

^^ Tis a better idea.

Surely it would make more sense for someone, upon clicking the trading forum, to see for eg: [UK] W/ LUXRAY GL AND BLAZIKEN FB LVL X - H/ GENGAR PRIME.

Rather than searching 30-40 odd threads for a trade from an international country.
 
RE: Trading Forum...

I agree with this. A simple [WW] or [IN] (Worldwide/International) or whatever would certainly make it easier on traders from other countries.
 
RE: Trading Forum...

I also approve. It just makes going through threads easier when you can only trade international or within your own country.
 
RE: Trading Forum...

Should we:

Have tags in thread title:
(WW) - This trader trades worldwide
(WOC) - Within own country only?

or just list the country in the thread title?

I am leaning towards the tags, because they are shorter, and you can click the username under the thread title to see the country in their profile.
 
The tags would make the most sense honestly. Adding those 2 or 3 characters is going to save everyone a great deal of time from trying to read thread rules and whatnot. This would solve everything a lot quicker.
 
I think most of the traders are from the US, so [US] for us only, and [WW/IN] for anyone who lives in a different country, or will trade with others.
 
I think that something at the beginning of the thread title like [US] [UK] [NA] [WW] saying which country/ countries you ship to and then a sticky or something that have the meanings of some of the stranger ones like NA (North America)
 
I have added a bunch of Thread Prefixes you can use so members will easily know where you trade to. To get them to appear in your current thread, go to edit->Full Edit. If an option is missing, feel free to contact me with what you think needs to be added.
 
So it's a part of the trading forum rules now or what? I'm just wondering when/if this is going to take effect.
