I`ve just read the new rules for the trading forum... and they`r awful... http://forums.f-o-g.eu/threads/4227-read-me-how-make-trading-thread.html#post44991 PLEASE remove rule #8 ! Re-activate the thread bumping! My thread is stuck on page 5 no matter how many times I post in it... trust me it is a very active section! PLEASE revise rule #4 ! Please allow links twords steam, steam inventory sites (optf2), steam trading sites (outpost, bazaar etc) THEY`R HARMLESS!! if my thread isn`t allowed here after all I`ll take my business elsewhere... but keep in mind the number of views it has gotten so far... that means more users for your forum... as I have a link to this thread on my steam profile...
Reason why your trading post isn't on page one is due to it not sorting by post dates, but the name of the thread, I'm not sure why but I have the same thing happen to me. Only way to fix it is to make it sort by newest posts first every time. Quick edit- While I see your point about #8 (which I've edited slightly), #4 won't change, however I edited it slightly to exclude links to steam.
