Is there any way to delete an ad? I've found a use for an item I've listed for up upcoming costume, so I wish to remove it from my listings.

[xxmossgardenxx]

Okay again what about WTB adds? Where could thoes be filed?

[Kukkii-san]

@mekou
have you tried marking it as "sold"?

[Kakashi101]

Wow. Cosplay.com sure has changed a lot since I last logged in (give or take a year ago) And now I'm REALLY confused on how to navigate the spam thread. All I want to do is ask is someone has something that I want to buy. How do I do this now?

Also, so long as the ads are for custom jobs and aren't just links to a store with pre-made costumes, they're fine in the Commission for Hire section.

Is there any way to get any feedback from Mods if we report an ad?

I'm just wondering if I'm still misunderstanding the "don't make items just for selling" and the "don't just link to your off-site auction or store" rules, 'cause I've reported a number of ads that have descriptions that are only links to their off-site store to buy pre-made items, and they're still up after a few weeks.

Of course I don't expect to hear back from Mods after every report (there's no way they could reply to everyone, same as how they don't reply when you report a thread/post).
I'd just like to hear back as to whether I'm mistaken about the rules and those types of ads are allowed so I should stop reporting them, or if the mods are just super busy and haven't had time to remove them yet, or if my reports aren't getting through due to a browser bug or something.

Same here. I have asked twice with no answer about if we are looking for something to buy. There is no place for that, and I don't want people yelling at me because I posted in the wrong section.

Again where can we place "want to buy" adds?

[highroller]

that's a good question.

[Michi]

For WTB ads, wouldn't "Commissions: Wanted" work? I mean, for costume items, that's fine. There are some there already.

Have people been reporting ads? I haven't received a single report. I guess we should look into that as mods.

[xxmossgardenxx]

I mean other than commissions. Say for instance I am looking for BDJ's or H.Natou clothing.

I think people are looking for a place to request used items, rather than looking to commission items. Like "does anyone have red knee-high boots in size 7 they want to sell" or something like that, and those doesn't really seem like they belong in the Commissions: Wanted section.

Yup, I've been reporting a bunch (as I said above, mostly ones that are just a link to an external store to buy pre-made items), and given how big this site is I can't imagine I would be the only one doing so.

[xxmossgardenxx]

Exactly. I am not looking for a comission, but a WTB.

[PepeluTivursky]

I'd also love to know where to post WTB's. I've got a couple of wigs I'm looking for and while I've looked through the wigs part of the marketplace, I figured someone out there may not consider getting rid of a particular wig unless they see someone wanting it, etc.

[xxmossgardenxx]

Exactly my point. We need a section for WTB's not commissions.

[Michi]

Er, yes, I understood the question. ...Which is what I was saying, that WTBs would be fine in the Wanted: Commissions for the time being.

I'll double check with Admin, though. Don't take that as official until he gives the final word.

My mistake, sorry! ^_^

Yeah, I'll wait for official word. Thanks Michi!
