• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

For all us guys in the uk we have to search threads and threads for someone selling in the uk. I think it would be good if there was sections in the fs/ft forum eg:
US/canada
europe/uk
other

would make it a lot easier for us guys not in the us.
 
I'll expand on it.

There should be a sub forum withing FS/FT for people who aren't trading to the US or Canada. :cool:
 
Instead of a new subforum, I say advise UK sellers to put (UK) in their titles. Simple as that.

That still means searching through many pages of threads, in a overcrowded forum. I find it difficult to see any potential problems. :cool:
 
You're already searching anyway. It's going to be a matter of audience. If Kyle feels like there's a big enough UK user base, you might get your wish. A new subforum would probably be a lot easier than implementing a "UK" checkbox for new threads and for FS/FT searches.

Kind of singling out the UK though. Not so fair to people who hail from other countries. [H]ouse of Representatives?

True, but england and the usa/canada are the most english speaking countries and this is an english board. i havnt really came across anyone from australia or anywhere like that.
 
this thread has been here a while and has been completly ingnored by those in power. :confused:
 
This has been suggested many times before and it was decided that it would actually be more confusing than not.

In [H]otDeals, the country of origin is usually clearly stated in the thread title or the first post if it isn't in the US. Works pretty well.

you guys could start a little trend by adding the location in as mentioned above and if enough people actually think its useful, they will pick up on it. being able to search by a location would be nice.


Example:

FS: Misc PC Hardware and PC DVD Games! [Southern California]

What's the mistake? Would it not be singling out the UK? Would it not be a bit unfair to other countries or regions not given their own subforum?
