Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

If you post it ....they will come
Members: 9,565, Threads: 20,558, Posts: 100,045
800-1000 members log in everyday.
Then there are the HUNDREDS of "guests" who do not bother logging in............and I mean HUNDREDS.
It is now 2:35 am EST
There are currently 40 members and 53 guests on the boards. Most users ever online was 271 on 04-28-2004 at 10:46 PM. <------this part is on line at the same time. But we get over 1000 members and guest looking here everyday. As a matter of fact. There seems to be about the same number of guests (sometimes more) that are logged on as there are members.
So if we get 800-1000 members a day. We probably get over 2000 people logging on. A DAY

Actually, recently we have been averaging between 5,000 and 7,000 unique IP addresses per day on this site. Since AOL and othes will share IP addresses via proxy servers, I think the number of actual unique individuals visiting could be MUCH higher than that figure.
Of course, some of those visitors are actually search engine spiders. This site gets heavily searched for the search engines and is getting a substantial number of people coming here via search engine queries.
And this is just the beginning. Ponder this for a moment: Whenever you read a thread on this site, you are seeing 5 messages at a time displayed on the page. So in effect, the hit counters are logging only one hit for every 5 messages read. Now, take a look at another site that is using a different method of discussion forum viewing where EACH message is on a separate page. The so-called "threaded forum messages display". To read those same 5 messages in a thread would generate 5 hits on the site's hit counter. So in effect, everything else being equal, that other site would be showing 5 times the hits that this site is, even though there could be the same number of viewers reading those messages.
Not only that, but it is obvious that the general discussion forums are severely under utilized here. So where are all of the people going that come to this site? Well, check out the "Who's Online" display every now and again. Most are either here on the BOI or browsing the classifieds sections. And since the unregistered viewers cannot come to the BOI, guess where most of them are spending their time? Yep. In the classifieds.
Throughout April we had between 15 and 36 NEW registered members PER DAY here.
We are bringing the people to this site, folks. It's up to you to give them the stuff to think about buying by putting your merchandise into the classifieds section.
Well, I think I'm doing my part, but what about you?

I agree, Robin.
I think some of the larger scale advertisers need to look at the long term picture here.....
Just my opinion of future trends, of course. But the writing appears to be on the wall.

My programmer did this fix the eloquent way. Now in your classified ad management screen, the clickable option to LOCK a thread is a toggle switch. When you LOCK an ad, the link changes to UNLOCK, so you can unlock it back at will.

Enhancement to the enhancement
My programmer just added in the capability for users to directly POST ads from the classified ads control panel display. You simply use the drop down selection list to select the section you want to post your ad into, and you are taken directly there so you can post your new ad.
Try it out and see what you think about it.

Works great. Cleaned up a lot of stuff that was extremely old that I would never had found (but I'm sure someoneelse would have and wanted to know why I still had the ad up if it was sold).
The bump feature works great as well.
