I am not privy to the decision-making process, but I think the Admins will treat this forum's members with a bit more respect than that.

Yeah, I would think so (hope so) too. But remember, we're just kinda tacked onto (hidden near the bottom even) an audiophile website. The administrators probably don't think too much of us TV guys. After all we're just a bunch of crazies that don't have HDTV's. </sarcasm>

But yeah, I'm hoping that it's just maintenance. Maybe they're going to give our TV swap board a makeover like the audio classifieds?

About those "TV" things... they do have *speakers* in them, right? Based on what passes for audio around here sometimes <tongue firmly in cheek>, I'd say that makes you guys more than qualified, Ian.

I believe that is the most likely outcome - to make the TV swap/for sale match the other "for sale" areas of the site, in the member's classifieds.

I have no doubt Grumpy, luvvinvinyl or Negotiableterms will make an official post to clarify what's being done.

I kinda hope that they don't do that, and just bring it back the way it was. We use that list listing for swapping stuff, giving away or trading stuff, and often for a whole batch of items at once. It also gets used for reference (like the flyback and yoke cross reference listings). I don't see how it would easily fit into the structured form of the member classifieds.

But, maybe that's just me. I don't like change either.

It would have been nice if there would have been some notice, or a user poll or something, to get a general consensus before stuff gets changed around.

Or, we/I could be just getting all worked up over nothing. "Look - it's this mat, that you lay on the floor. It's got all these conclusions, printed on it, that you can _jump_ to."
