How to we mark items as TAKEN / SOLD / NO LONGER AVAILABLE (whichever the case should be) ??

I can delete the entire thread once it it marked as taken, however, an offer of one item sometimes brings up other goods / items that could have been on the table for trade / sale. Deleting the topic because the main item was taken would mean this secondary items would be lost.

Deleting threads of taken items would not give a history of trades that have taken place - and it would appear that there is no activity in this tribe at all. That wouldn't encourage new members to join us at the trade tables.

Deleting the first posting of a thread removes the offer of the original item, but leaves all the follow up postings. It looks wierd and is somewhat confusing. I tried this method on my Welcome to the Belly Dancers comment - it doesn't work and I will remove that entire thread now.

For now, I'll ask that the original poster make a comment that thier specific item has been taken. Hopefully... no addtional comments will be made on that particular thread and we can start building a history of our successful trades!

I wish I had the ability to change the title of a posted thread - as it would be the easiest way to clearly mark a thread as closed. I'll check with the Tribe folks on this possibility.
