Recently checking the auto section of Nairaland, I noticed that the entire sub-forum is now dominated by adverts for used cars in Nigeria, and that all other car-related topics that get posted are swiftly buried under a relentless barrage of adverts.

May I suggest to the Nairaland automobile forum moderators that the auto section could be subdivided into an AUTO ADVERT section, which will list adverts exclusively, for the benefit of those seeking to buy cars in Nigeria, and an AUTO DISCUSSION section, where all non-commercial automotive discussion topics can be found quickly by those not interested in that sea of adverts for used cars in Nigeria, but who do have a passion for automotive trouble-shooting, technology and news.

Not very long ago, the adverts in the Nairaland automotive forum were comparatively few in number, but now a clear 99% of all entries into the auto forum are adverts, effectively muzzling all other automotive related topics of discussion like engine trouble shooting and modification.

Please, Mods, be kind enough to separate the adverts from the discussions, so that those of us who have zero interest in the adverts can ignore them, and thus be freed up to talk about cars.
