IMHO, i think that by people complimenting a car for sale would look good for the seller. if i was to be searching for a car on a forum and compared one that had alot of people saying good things about it compared to one that only the seller keeps "bumping" the thread up by himself, then i would be more interested in the one that has the more positive responses from the other members. i see both sides of this argument though and i think it should be a seller's opinion. if the site had huge amounds of classifieds like ls1tech, then bumping would definately be needed by the seller as most people would definately see it all the time. but on a smaller site compared to that, i think it would be fair to leave it to the seller and by having compliments, in my iopinion, make the item look much better and has been recommended by other members. then i see who my money goes to
