Also is it just me or has there actually been a very noticeable drop of traffic in the FS sections? Before if I didn't check the Fs section for a day then there would be 2 pages of new unread threads. Now I can go 3 or 4 days and come back to just a few new ones."If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough"

(paraphrased - not what they actually said, but close to it) "It's just how we do things, sorry about that. Did we say sorry? Our bad...we meant you can't do anything about it, and you'll learn to like it like that! Did we mention we support r3v by almost not even covering the running cost of the site? Oh, well don't tell anyone that, as we want people to think we contribute to the site and pay the bills - yet we don't even come close to it! Shhhhh Don't tell anyone one that!"Originally posted by Matt-Bhey does anyone know anyone who gets upset and makes electronics?

I am not a fan of the FB sales. I miss the thriving FS section. I have parts I want to sell but Panjo doesn't work for me.

Totally miss the thriving FS section. Panjo is shit, $115 part, I had to pay $120 for it, seller got $103 for it.
Useless, R3V needs to dump that crap, I've noticed the entire R3V community has quieted down lately, probably due to this.2016 F-150

I just tried to post a Wanted ad for a $20 part and it now involves 18 different steps and basically, just plain sucks.
To the R3V mods - if I only post one thing this year, it's that Panjo is awful and I despise the fact that you allowed this terrible company to corrupt the experience for your users, who - by the way - help keep the lights on here.
As the poster mentioned above, you have effectively taken money out of the enthusiasts' pockets for either yourselves or Panjo, not sure who stands to profit more off of this. But at the end of the day, when Facebook is already stealing activity and pageviews from forums like yours, investing in a solution that drives users away is one of the dumbest decisions you could have made.
I might add: if I do find something through this abortion of a classifieds system, I just email the user and ask if they'll conduct the transaction offsite. Everyone has said yes so far, because everyone knows how cumbersome it is.
Have a lovely day.

First, the R3V mods had precisely zero to do with implementing Panjo. It was a decision made unilaterally by James, who is the owner of this site. It's simply our job to support his decisions and enforce the rules here, whether or not we stand behind them 100%.
Second, how exactly do the users keep the lights on? Other than an occasional donation by a miniscule percentage of the forum's membership base, users actually incur more costs for this place than they contribute by using the software and using bandwidth.
The implementation of Panjo was supposed to help offset those costs, by the marketplace feeding a percentage of all transactions back to the site. I don't know how much it's actually helping though, if at all.
All that said, you're welcome to take this up directly with James, since this is his show. Although I think he has far more important things to worry about right now than folks who are angry about the way he provides free services, so maybe give him a few months.
