Yeah the classifieds should be on the main forum board list and show new posts like normal threads.
They are.
More than just the home page. The last 10-15 items oughta show up right next to the top topics.
They are.
I have looked and looked it over about 20 times and they are not part of the main forum thread board, there is however a separate tab at the top of the page taking one to that complete different section section but it is not part of the forum thread flow. If it were they would show up in the side bar and newest threads ect which they do not.
