I find it annoying that my sale threads winds up into page 6 in just 24 hours meaning nobody sees it. I'd like to suggest 50 sale threads per page. I'm sure this bothers other people too... not just me.
People can always go to forum, and go to the buy and sell category and look at the last posted on threads. I know I do this when I am specifically looking for something for sale.
Wait until the summer time, FS pages are going to be getting bumped up from PM requests like crazy! Threads can only be set by a certain user based on their preference.
From my experience, pictures make things happen. As long as you have some good items which you do, people will bump your thread for you with their interest in your product. Usually if you don't post a picture, unless it's something I really want, I don't even bother looking at the thread.
So maybe it's not an issue of the buy/sell section getting flooded with threads, but how your listing your stuff?
100 was a setting that was removed, it still may be in effect for him since he set it before the change.
Why was something as useful as that removed? Sounds strange to me... unless some idiot set it to their default and complain that it was lagging their connection because they didn't know how to change it back.

Yeah, I recently bought a camera, though not the best one. should add some pictures.
It was removed because it was too taxing, especially on threads that are picture extensive.
I'm sorry your for sale threads get moved down, but the point of this site isn't just for you to sell your stuff, so look at the big picture. Less posts per page = less taxing on servers.
I wanted to note that I will be increasing the amount again once I do an update in the next few days or week. I've made some drastic stability changes that should makes things a bit faster.

You can adjust them numbers of threads seen per page and all that good stuff in your settings. I have it set to 100.
I just went into the forum options and the only allowed settings are 25 or 50. Mind explaining how to set it to 100?
