Popular Post meepmeepmayer Posted December 1, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 1, 2019 (edited) TLDR 1) Some kind of location must always be in the topic title. 2) Sale: wheel designation must be in title. 3) Buy: title must indicate you are looking for a wheel. Private Sales As the name implies, this forum is only for private selling and buying of electric unicycles (wheels, EUCs) and all related things (for example accessories, parts, protective equipment - just no unrelated stuff please). Clearly commercial offers belong into the Commercial Advertisements forum. If a commercial seller wants to sell some specific used wheels or things, posting here is ok if it benefits the buyer (e.g. better visibility). Minimum requirements for the title of a topic - please put these in the title You can put anything you want in the title. But these three are minimum requirements for a topic's title. The location of the electric unicycle (sale) or buyer (buy) must be in the topic title. At least the continent (Europe, North America, etc.) should be clear, and being more precise will be helpful. Shipping electric unicycles overseas is expensive and complicated, and will overwhelmingly not be worth it. To prevent frustration for members browsing the posts here, a location that specifies at least the continent is required in the title. If you sell a specific wheel, the wheel name must be in the title of the topic. If you are looking to buy a wheel, the title must indicate so (Wanted, WTB = want to buy, looking for, help me find, ...). Otherwise the topic will be considered a sales post by default. Examples of good titles: EU - looking for beginner wheel [someone in Europe looking to buy an unspecified beginner wheel] MSX 1600Wh £1200 OBO UK [someone in the UK, selling an Msuper X with a 1600Wh battery, with a basis of negotiation that is 1200 Pounds] Three Inmotions for sale (V10, 2x V8) in California WTB MSX 100V (East Coast) [Someone on the east coast of the US wanting to buy a 100V MSX] Inmotion V5F good condition in San Diego $250 (local pick-up preferred) Examples of bad titles: Selling my Gotway [wheel not indicated, location not indicated] xxxl33th4xx0r420xxx (that's the username, and in the topic itself there's a full description) [no info in the title] Beginner wheel? [They want to buy one or what? And no location.] What you can add in the title or post itself to help you sell your wheel or buy a wheel Add anything you see fit, where you see fit - in the title or in the post itself! Useful information will help sell or buy a wheel more easily. For example... A price or price range for sales - most people will want to know Photos of what you want to sell! See here how to post images. This is the #1 request in topics without photos. Regarding photos: As a seller, you can prove that you are legit and not a scammer (using someone else's photos) by having a handwritten note with your forum username in one of the photos of your wheel. This is a great and easy safety measure. More about scammers here. For selling, usually it will be best if the name of the electric unicycle is the (visually) first thing in the title. This helps people quickly see what a topic is about. Details about the electric unicycle. What is the battery capacity? How old is it? What is the mileage? Where was it bought from, does it still have warranty? How scratched up is it, and where? Etc. An app screenshot may be useful (contains mileage and wheel type, can confirm that your battery charges to the full voltage). Indicate if you are willing to ship or if it's local pick-up only. In the case of local pick-up, ideally that should be added to the location in the title, to help people quickly see if a wheel is available to them. Why you are selling. Especially for newer models, people will want to know why you sell, so adding this information will reassure potential buyers. Sold wheels Please indicate if a wheel has been sold. You can edit a SOLD (or similar) into the title or simply post a "Sold" reply to your your topic.

I have tried everything. Thanks for the help. As a new user, the edit function was not available yet so this might have confused you. Now you can edit You can press the "edit" button on the first post and you can edit the title of your topic. You can also long-click the title to change it. Hover your mouse over the title and an instruction will appear. That only works on Desktop, not on mobile. (That also wouldn't work for a brand new member.) Thanks for doing the legwork regarding your sales post! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lateralus Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Would it be possible to have sub-forums for the different continents? It's quite inefficient for EU users to filter through several US topics before finding one from EU and vice verse. Also, this way even if someone hasn't specified the location in the title you can know if you should even bother asking. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..... Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 (edited) Just say NO to segregation! Having to make something more complex because people can't follow simple rules. Its a vicious cycle that will never end. If people cant be bothered to follow the current simple rules, you will find they wont put listing in the right place. Your attempt to make it easier, would only work if we could rely on people to follow even more rules. IN the end, we would simply be looking thru ALL the listing in more places. I dont find there to be THAT many eucs for sale at any given time. Having to send some pm's and browse, isnt asking much. Asking the mods to have to sort for us, probably is.

Thank you! You can do that. The option should be in the list sitting between the title and the first post body if it's not the three dots.
