The new software has extremely fine control of access, so I have given classified ad posters the ability to edit, lock and delete your own classified ads. The new software also creates edit and delete audit trails. So, if someone intends to edit or delete an ad as a way of misleading or scamming, Moderators will have access to those edits and deleted posts history. That should provide enough protection for all involved.
You will find the new features here:
I think you'll find this useful. Any problems or bugs let me know.
Sorta related, It seems that in the classifieds quite a few folks are putting "sold' "retracted", "eaten" and "removed" and similar
things in the title rather than just deleting the ad.
Would it be something like a "how-to remove your ad" header. to the forum somehow?
