And to think that just the other day, someone told me you weren't an extremely generous person. I'm totally overwhelmed. Well, maybe I'm just whelmed. Again, I am not too sure.

OK. To clarify: Thank you, Sean.

Thank you, Sean...














...for Tubenet. But please put the edit button back on the For Sale forum.

PLEASE Change it back Sean!

This new policy isn't working. It's a reaction to one person's inability to work inside the system. Quoting the ORIGINAL AD in a message preserved it if it was such a big deal. Now we have even more clutter than before. For gods sake please undo this thing, and no it's not just another issue of "getting used to it". It plain doesn't work.

I don't want to dig through pages of posts to see if the something has been updated that's not in the original, I already spend too much time on here as it is.

The first bloke needs to get used to it. Why is the rest of the community suffering?

EDIT: Now I can't mark items that were on hold before as for sale again!

So now we have to start using a less open way of scamming people but on the plus side, no more

Brilliant. Just make text blocks into jpeg's and then upload at will. Brilliant.

My plan was actually to assemble a team of the best minds and bodies TubeNet has to offer and made a super-secret infiltration of the top-secret and highly-guarded TubeNet server room. From there, we would install a very discrete server worm (It attacks five key server components, so I call it the "Jackson 5") which will remove the lock on editting posts in the For Sale section!


Or we could do Tubaing's idea...

The edit button would be so much simpler.

That's the whole point, geomiklas -- Sean disabled the edit function from for sale entries.

Yes iiipopes, I'm well aware and personally miss that edit button too.

I really don't think its as big of a deal as some of you are making it. Its his site, he can do whatever he wants. And I think if you really want it back, there are probably more productive ways of trying to get it back than what is happening in this thread. Are you trying to convince him to give it back, or trying to piss him off?

I'm thinking of an old adage about attracting flies with honey instead of vinegar?

You're right. But then what would we talk about -- actual tuba related subject matter?! :tuba:
