I totally understand the new rules. If you were on the board a lot, like most of us, you would have noticed that the same people had items that always stayed on the front page. That occurs when someone "bumps" their listing by various means. The lister who only posted one item would invariably get pushed farther and farther back in the classifieds. The little seller didn't have a chance against the pros.
This levels the playing field for everyone. I've already seen posts from new members and I love it!
Since everyone knows that Admin. is watching, maybe everyone will play by the rules.
