Can everyone please close their threads when sold?

I just went through 5 Comfort Strapp threads...none were closed...all were sold.

This makes it a pain to try to find anything.

Mods?

Please close your threads...whether it be basses, amps, pedals, etc....

+1.....And mark them as SOLD in the subject line as well.

at least close it. The little lock is indication enough that I shouldn't get excited over something that isn't available.

+1...thanks for addressing this. This is an ongoing annoyance for anyone trying to effectively use the classifieds.

If it's marked as sold in the first post you will at least see that in the thread preview (mouse over thread title).

but l.o.l at this thread when enough ppl don't read the sticky that asks sellers to close when sold. I don't think they will see this either.

Yeah, unfortunately if it's not in a thread title most people never read the rules.

I know I am not supposed to post gripe threads in the Classifieds...I have read the rules. So at least I know I am breaking the law.

But if no one addresses it, it is just going to get worse....TB is growing every day!!

Yep.

And sorry, but we do NOT have time to go through every thread and check to see if it's sold or not, and then lock it.

It's been a long-standing rule here to lock FS threads once an item is sold, but it seems that a lot of people find it difficult to follow that rule. I close as many of them as I see, but that only gets so many of them.

And yes, in the future, please refrain from "rant" threads in the classifieds.
