what is the point in reporting ads when a) you do not take action and b) it takes too long when you do?
I reported illegal ads this morning and they are still there !! and since not much happens in gumtree offices over the weekend they will be there for the next 48hours at least ! Why should users waste their time when you do not keep you half of the bargain and deal with it in a acceptable time frame?

I am not bothering anymore with this site.

And what is the point of you saying that ? None at all! You are only a volunteer and not a member of admin staff, this feedback is intended for the admin, not you.

If you can't "moderate" as you are i assume supposed to be doing and only be sarcastic then i suggest you give up your volunteer position.

HI Runestave

what happened to

I am not bothering anymore with this site.?

anyway

you are correct, I have nothing to do with ads
but I can contact those who do, and I do

but Why should I knock myself out for someone who comes on here, calling me a moron.
shouting the odds and swearing? they wouldn't go into a shop and do it

why think they can get away with it here?

You may suggest what you wish, It will get you your usual response.

Oh, I'm sorry but whatever we did wrong in your opinion is not deserved of this kind of language and abuse. I'm afraid I'm going to have to ban you.

Another fine example of the usual sarcastic comments you always have to put instead of addressing the problems. You behave like you are the school prefect in a playground.

Lets try to not throw accusations around. I fix problems on here all day. Every website has problems and I am here to get to the bottom of them. If you're just going to have a go at me all day then I'm not going to be able to solve anything for you am I?

So why don't you tell me what it is I can help you with and try and get it fixed for you?

the questions at the top.
heres a thought why not just give some members enough control that they can remove the ads and to pay them for their help offer free featured listing when they want it or such.

Yeah its a common suggestion but it is also a legal mine field for us. I'd love to make the site user managed but its just not going to happen
