Please Read: Merging topics--Posts will disappear

Post by Roller »

We are going to merge the "Buy/Sell/Rent" and the "Ticket Exchange" topics into a single topic.
Unfortunately, the software does not offer a merge capability. Therefore, we will have to delete the current topics and create a new one to serve both purposes.

As a result, all of the posts in those two areas will be lost. If you have a post in those forums, please take note: they will be gone by the end of May. If you want them to remain, you will need to repost them after the new combined topic is created.

Regret the inconvenience. Progress is a bitch.

I started to do that, but it turned out to be more complicated and to involve a lot more work than I'm prepared to do without a substantial raise in pay.

It'll get done. If the current posts have not had an affect by the end of the month, they probably are not going to. If the posters want to post them in the new area after it's set up, then they can.
