I agreed with everything you said.
>> Would it be possible to add another column to the plant lists table and indicate therein for each person, maybe with an icon or a yes or no, whether that person is actively looking to sell or trade?
Sue, I almost answered: "but that is ALREADY prominent when you go to a person's Plant list - the No-Trade plants aren't even IN that persons "Trade" or "Sell" categories!"
Then I realized that people who jay-walk when requesting plants are almost always NOT going from a person's Plant List. They probably saw the plant in our database, one second after a Google query. We might think they would see the "HAVE" and "WANT" categories.
Probably some people are already saying:
- - - "Want, Have ... that's too complicated, I'll just ask for it."
Would they do much better if there were four lists?
"Want"
"Have"
"Trade"
"Sell"
