I think you are trying to advertise your clan. But what does it matter what I think?

2) There are many opinions on the Classifieds. My opinion is that it is a good place to put all of the advertisements, and it does in fact work, but it doesn't work as well as anyone hopes because the majority of the people who go there want to advertise, and aren't looking for a group. But I got a member for my group a while back, so it does work.

I think it should have different catagories of clans like, how big or small a clan is.

Everyone post what you think of the classifieds on bungie. Personally, I think it rocks because I have an all Elite clan that I need members for. But that's just me.

I think he was commenting on another post that this thread does belong here.

Classifieds is allright, it is a little hard to find things.

When it just started I used the classifieds to find a chapter. I am not in it anymore because I know my way around the site a little bit better. But it works.

Well its nice and all, but the problem is that no one actually goes in it unless they're the one advertizing. I rarely see replies to topics in there.

Well as Bungie.net is getting bigger with the announcement of Halo 3, I find it hard to find anything worthwhile in there, I used to be able to go in there without fear of unknowingly being recruited into a clan...

it works. but not many people visit the classifieds, so it doesn't get as much exposure as youd want. people go there for selfish reasons, no one goes to search out a good group to join...

It worked originally when there wasn't so much traffic. Not many people are going to want to sift through so many threads for something that interests them. I don't want to because, besides having filled my chapter slots, chapters these days are all fundamentally the same with little personality and few ideas. I preferred it when discussion was allowed and we had a community of sorts in the forum. Of course, civility's hit rock bottom by this point and I don't see any way it could be fixed.

Heh, you caught that too eh?

But in answer to you Mr Kidd, the Classifieds serve a good purpose on Bnet. It also gives the mods justification for closing advertisment/recruiting threads in other forums. Which is almost what you have done... ;)

No one ever actually looks for groups to join...but I suppose it's nessesary.

The classifieds is a complete waste of time.

Ideal Science designed all of this advanced software; which although admittedly simpler can handle alot more than IPB or VBulletin but 9 out of every 10 features have been striped away from the orginal ideal science board.

Now the classifieds is just a newspaper ad like area and until there is a decent search feature for keywords in posts its useless without comments.
