Is it possible for there to be a Marketplace template when a new thread is created?

There seems to only be a standard for cars/vehicles.

Here's one:

Ensure title is [FS] [FR] [LF] [WTT] [WTB] plus item name. IE- [FS] Bucket, Missing Handle

Include item description

Item price

Photos

Done!

Bumping this up.

Do you guys see value in keeping the Automotive and/or Cell Phone Marketplace templates moving forward when we upgrade?

IMO a fs thread should be more than a link to Kijiji. Template probably helps make sure all the basics are there to start.

Simple solution - if said FS thread is just basically a link to a kijiji ad, then the moderators should delete it. Yeah, I know it would be a bit more work for someone to make a real FS thread but it would probably eliminate some of the members who just post FS threads and nothing else. Beyond is a community of sorts and FS only type of members really are not contributing in any fashion.

keep the templates. Nuke anything that's just a link to kijiji, and give head-butts to people who reply in the for sale thread.

There was a reason the templates were created... doesn't completely fix stupid, but it's as close as we can hope for

I think it should be mandatory to post "good luck with sale" so that the seller has a lucky sale.
