Marketplace Rework

**wastedbro** · 10-09-2011

The current marketplace, named "buy", is terrible. It sucks. It makes me want to puke blood. It needs to be reworked.

here's how it should be:

I. BuyPoe Marketplace:

A. Puzzle Pirates:
1. Poe
a. Shops
2. Accounts
3. Paid bots
4. Stats and services

B. Runescape:
1. Accounts
2. Paid bots
3. Gold
a. Shops
4. Stats and services

C. Other
1. Shops

D. Middlemen
1. Unofficial
2. Official

F. Vouches

We could also expand upon the shop idea. As in have real, verified shops. Also we could have unverified shops.

This is a basic skeleton of how a marketplace should go. Right now it's cluttered, annoying, and not noob-friendly

I fixed it a bit, but there doesn't need to be 100 forums/child forums.

I like how you can view all sale threads in one spot.

I don't, and neither does the majority of Buypoe. It's a bad layout, and it really kills sales.

Go to powerbot.org. Go to their marketplace section and tell me how fast it takes you to find a respectable RSGP shop. Then go to our RS marketplace and tell me how long it takes to find a respectable RSGP shop.

The reason any one thread can't succeed is because it's floating in a sea of other sales threads. It hurts everything.

My layout provides clarity. We need all of the game marketplaces on the front page. The "Buy" thread is a bad name and poorly promoted.

I say if you guys spend a couple of hours reworking the forum, you can set up a self-efficient marketplace. Make it organized.

It makes us look bad in my opinion.

Organisation is the number 1 thing for a prospective buyer. Remember, First Impression counts.

What's also important: Prefixing legit and verified threads, and stickying commonly used shops so that others can find it.
