Zeroin, Dead & Gone?

[Jedi_Master]

I am using Microsoft Edge (Windows Explorer) and have Kaspersky Internet, and I get straight to the website and sign in with no issues or warnings.

Not sure i like the new format, for starters I haven't found the option for it to automatically just show me any new/unread content since my last visit, like it does here & on ukaz.

its pm system isnt working yet

It's showing up as not secured for me on Chrome, Win7. Would it be so hard to setup SSL and encrypt the website?  :mellow:

I had the same using AVG,I found if I disable AVG "web shield" and request access when the red warning page shows,I can get in..I immediately re-enable "web shield" and can navigate once in.

I thought I was the only one having issues still...

It's been happening for many many months, if they was going to sort it I'm sure they would have done it by now unfortunately, but to be totally honest, this forum is much better anyway..

No issues with iOS, not flagged by Google using it either

I think there's a good chance the amount of time it's been down will kill it off this time, which based on my personal experience I'd be more than happy with frankly.

Then again since the facebook RIF ban, a lot of people will think it's pretty much the only place to buy/sell second hand airsoft guns, so if the word gets around the classifieds may come back to life somewhat.  The rest of the forum has been dead as a donkey for years though.

 

[mimozine]

yeah i only used it for classified ads, i found there is less toolery on here

i totally agree..

i just tried loggin in on my pc and its still blocking the forum, im not that fust no more to be honest..

I can't access it on Chrome with Avast. Only used it for the classifieds but having a better experience on here selling so will stick around

Works fine on my iPhone and despite the rest of the forum being dead, the sales thread has proven to be the best there is. 

 

[Rogerborg]

Unless I'm missing something, it looks like the reputation system is AWOL, which makes it no better than any other random site for selling.

Actually, while it was down, a bunch of us got ripped off by one seller who double- or triple-sold the same items, and now there's no way to ding him.  I bet he doesn't take his hits either.

 

[Wo1f]

The reputation thing does appear to be missing.. but if you replace it with common sense you can’t really go wrong. I’ve just done a trade on there. His post count was lower than mine so he posted first and provided proof. Second I received that proof I posted. Not a perfect system, but it’s as good as it gets. My other stuff I put up have been a case of one message and it’s sold within the day. I do like this forum, but the amount of people offering you stupid offers or asking you 1000 questions even though they have no intention of buying is irritating. 

I do do think this forum could easily lead in terms of a sales section though. It’s got the traffic, just needs to be set out like theirs. 

rifles: electric, gbbr, ebb, hpa 

pistols: electric, gbb.. whatever. 

If I’m looking for a gas sniper rifle for example, I don’t want to go through 3 pages of WE and TM pistols to find one.

Do you refine your search option in Gas guns? Do not generally see the word sniper in with pistols (except TM Mk23 as perfect sniper sidearm).  Some better titles and text/description by sellers would also help.

 

[Wo1f]

I don’t, no. I just click gas and browse. In the sniper section of Z1 there isn’t the word sniper in the sales threads. Just the names of the guns. Unless you you’re looking for something specific, refining wouldn’t really help. I’d just like to browse by category. At the end of the day, this and Z1 are both large airsoft forums, but the sales section has always been more popular over there. For me, the way it’s laid out is the reason why.

You may want to add your thoughts about the Classifieds to this topic

 

[Wo1f]

I will. For the record, it’s not me trying to piss on this forum. For the most part, I like it. Just a few annoyances. 

 

[Jedi_Master]

There are elements of the forum layout that many of would like to improve but it all rests with Devastator the root admin and owner.
