I think this is a bad idea and the post I just did to market.auction is
a prime example of why. At least *I* think it is. It is about an
auction, but it's far more significant (at least I think it is) as
something new in our little world than as just another flog. In fact
it's not a flog, there's no solicitation of bidding in it, unlike my
standard flogs.
See a standard flog of mine:

See the append in question:
http://www.lugnet.com/market/auction/?n=3608
Note carefully the followups that were set. Note also the discussion
that has ensued, which is theoretical in nature.

| I'd like to improve the server's ability to automatically enforce the "no-auctions outside of auction groups" rule. Obviously the server can never do a foolproof job at this, but I think it can do a bit better than what it is doing currently, which (...) (25 years ago, 12-Dec-99, to lugnet.admin.general)
