Perhaps all advertisers should have click to accept a page listing all the rules before entering their first ad (cookies to remember whose seen it). Perhaps classifieds should also be restricted to registered members for the sake of rules enforcement.For personal "Audiophile" ads, I'd think that 15 free ads per month should be more than enough for those with most severe case audiophoolishness. From a quick perusal, the largest personal listing at one time was 10 while most average 3-5 ads in any single month.
Then, we need to force dealers to declare themselves as such - there are clearly a few who are not. Any dealer/vendor found posting as an "Audiophile" should be warned once(w/ ads deleted) and then barred from advertising for 3 months on the next offense.
And, all multiple listings for the same item (no matter how many available) should be banned and automatically deleted. Anyone found abusing this rule should be warned once and then barred from advertising for 3 months on the 2nd offense.
Lastly, commercial vendors should get 10 free ads per month(max.5 free per day), after that $3 per additional ad. That's a fair price considering that a quick look at the classifeds page shows most vendor ads to range from $300-$3,000. Another smaller block of ads range from $60-150. There are only a few ads for less than that (excluding Mambo's blitzkrieg of thirty $20 Mini Vacume ads). So, any vendor selling <$30 items can use their free ads for those.
Besides raising money for the Asylum, many people will seriously think twice before listing 30 items in a row with regularity. If someone really wants to spend that kind of money, let them - the Asylum could use it.
A little Draconian, but hey I like discipline.
