I don't agree with the way the swap and sell closing was handled but I do understand why it was done. I admittedly have very limited knowledge in the origin of GON, but from what I have heard, it was founded as a discussion forum, not a classifieds forum. I have been running this site for nearly three months and I already can see how frustrating it must be for them having so much traffic going towards an area of the site that was not part of the original intent.
