RE: The SCAMMERS Conquer RCU
That explanation makes sense somewhat but it is very un-intuitive that I need to use a link that is labeled "report ad" and the tooltip says "report inappropriate, mis-categorized or offensive ads". I placed the ad myself so I know it's none of the above. I would never think of reporting my own ad, why in the world would I do that? A link placed close to the question to my ad would be much more intuitive and helpful for me as a seller/legit user trying to report scammers, and since the question is tied to the ad it should also make it easy for you mods to see the ad and the related question that I want to report.

RE: The SCAMMERS Conquer RCU
Yes, I know how to report ADS. What I am asking is the same sort of icon to report USERS which I suggest should be made available on the user profile page next to the email icon.

RE: The SCAMMERS Conquer RCU
Ok reporting ads is great but either I don't see it or it's not there, we need a link to report users and/or questions to our ads. Can it be done today? If so, maybe I'm still half asleep or it is not obvious how to do it. Maybe an icon next to the "Email this member" icon in the user profile can be added to report a user as a possible scammer?

The SCAMMERS Conquer RCU
I can't believe it, I just posted an ad last night and am getting scammer emails/questions, like "is your item still available for sale kindly get back to me". Now if you've been around the internet and ads you KNOW that "item", "still available" and "kindly" in one sentence is 99.9% a scammer email [:@] I've gotten plenty in response to craigslist ads but never before here on RCU. Now the scammers don't shy away from registering....sad. The users just joined, too, and I am wondering if admins can do anything that would at least prevent people from joining and launching 100s of emails to sellers. There should at least be a limit of, say, 5 questions per day for the first 30 days?

RE: Runway One Six - The Romance of Flying
I saw this movie in Los Angeles when it was playing in a theater for one week. Get online and buy the DVD (coming out in a couple of days), it will make you cry. Awesome film.

:eek: IT FITS!!! :D I am thinking about this plane also but want to use it as a tow plane, so I need a bigger engine than a G23, possibly bigger than a G38. Check out this thread where there are nice pictures posted of a G38 under the cowl: [url]http://www.rcuniverse.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=636877&forumid=38[/url]]
