Then the question becomes, if there is an independent Football BST section, should BST stuff be allowed in this forum? I am not sure we are close to a consensus yet but the replies are appreciated.

If there was a dedicated BST then everything for sale or trade in that category should be there.

No, if a dedicated BST is set up for football, then no BST here.

Dead sections of forums don't do a lot of good and sort of look bad. I know Jeff and a handful of others have participated here, but if we take away all BST, will this forum be barren? Just a thought..... The BST threads here do provide some "action". And as you guys seem to agree to, having Football BST in this forum wouldn't make sense if there is one dedicated to it. Again, just trying to find the right solution. It's not life or death and a lot better than agonizing why I am paying a fee for my cancellation of a doctor's appt. (as I just did) .

Adding B/S/T to this existing forum, which it has been for quite sometime, would probably be easiest??

Thanks Tucker

Thanks Tucker

It is what is already happening and why we are discussing this in the first place .

I voted "None" on BST - honestly just because I find it kind of annoying. What happens is I get that half second of hope "someone posted something new!?!" and then it just dies when I find out "no, its just someone selling something again". That being said, this is my first post on the subject - I had no plans to be vocal on this topic until I saw this thread and I'm not in favor of severe penalties if someone does start a BST thread from time to time. Ideally, that kind of thing would happen naturally if we had more threads on different sets - and someone posted "pm me I have some dups". Just my 2 cents.

If I look at the total of a few BST allowed and unlimited allowed it is staying almost exactly the same number as none allowed. Democracy at it's best ....If this stays the same, then what?

[Exhibitman]

well it is a plurality of none and a majority of either none or a few. Why not start with a max of 1 selling spam thread start per week per person and see how that works out?

Ok, who put this survey together? You can't start combining votes from various answers to draw this conclusion. Time to break back out a statistics book!

Seriously, the compromise of allowing one BST per week per person seems like a decent solution.

Thanks for your support on all of this, Leon.
