Just an idea, but since we use formatted titles for the swap shop, what if you could filter for location (US only or UK only or All)?

It's a good idea - I am assuming however that any filter will need to rely on people filling out their titles in the correct format. Sadly, this still doesn't happen - a large portion of the Swap Shop moderation effort is directed to editing titles and making sure they all comply with the format. Some threads still slip through the net sadly.

Right, but since you guys do it anyways, the threads end up correctly titled. A really cool update would be for the thread titles to be automatically populated by a form. Like change the Swap Shop thread create so it has a couple fields instead of a title:
Wants
Haves
Location
Ebay yes/no
And then it mashes whatever you put in those fields into the title.
Automatically Appended Next Post:
That's probably a lot more work than it is worth though.

Woah, no way. I never knew that Ctrl F searched things!!!! Thank you so much for your help, Chowderhead! Did you know that CTRL-ALT-Up Arrow does the same thing?
Seriously though, of course you can Ctrl+F. You can also use the search function. I am offering an idea for an improvement over existing functionality though.

If a property system is created, game/manufacture should be part of the criteria. It would allow for players looking only for Mantic/Infinity/Historicals to avoid 40K/WFB listings.
