After the 30 days and the ad is closed. The ad will still be there correct, you will just have to PM the person to see if it is still for sale. correct?

Yes

I kind of like the 30 day since posted idea but what keeps someone from bumping the ad to forever

Nothing - but then the item must still be available or they wouldn't be bumping. The whole point here is to keep ads from being posted in when the owner isn't here or the owner forgot to mark the ad as sold. When someone posts in a thread, then its brought to the top of the list. So an ad from 2013 for example, could be top on the list again.

Wouldn't happen if the adds were closed from the start. Muddy is how it is now.

I've considered that. Would solve a lot of my headaches.

Could the classifieds forum be changed to be by subscription like the "news and politics" forum? That way people that are really upset by sale ads could "opt out" without effecting those of us that want to see the ads? I always need parts. Even if I don't need parts I still sometimes buy them.

No. We get a lot of new people because of the for sale ads.
