I've been using Forums Lite and it stinks.

Nobody knows of a better one?

If you don't have your Location listed in your User Control Panel, why not take a second and update it? It will let your trading partners know where you are from the beginning.

There are two iPhone apps that I know of that will interface with phpBBs, but the forum owners/operators have to install a plug-in to make the forum "available" to the application:

http://www.forumrunner.net/

I used Forum Runner briefly and wasn't terribly impressed, but that's because Bartertown is the only phpBB I follow; so, I didn't poke around too much :wink:

Another option would be to make a different "skin" available to be consumed by mobile devices (not just the iPhone); however, this may also requires changes to how the BB identifies devices that are accessing it and determining the proper output.
1. Lower rating ships first. Buyer pays before shipping.
2. Please reply back to messages sent; a "no thanks" is better than not responding. I'll do the same.
3. If you don't like the price or trade terms I offer, please feel free to send a counter offer. They call it Bartertown for a reason ;]
4. If there is no communication after 48 hours, then our trade/sale is null and void.

Thank you for the input. After 5 months of being dead, however, please start a new topic in the future.
Thanks.

Lower rating? You ship first.

Give me a sense of humor Lord. Give me the grace to see a joke.

I think what this situation needs is some imagination.
