Yeah, as I've said I worry it might be too much, but I think it would help from a looking for a league perspective.

As you said, if the league is set up right then all of that info shouldn't be hard to find, but I think you just might be surprised how difficult it is to find a lot of that info sometimes. What you and I might think of being as obvious stuff you should make easy to find, a lot just don't seem to think likewise.

From a mainly just posting ads perspective, I don't think one might see it (I didn't when I just commished and almost never looked for leagues). But if you often look for leagues that fit certain criteria, I think you'd easily see how useful this is. I agree, when Markus first posted that I thought it was a bit absurd to delete any threads that don't meet the requirements, but after recently going through numerous ads and having done it lots long ago when updating the IOLD I did see how useful it would be.

Like I said above, my idea was (for anyone) to post asking them to include it and that if they don't after a certain time then the thread gets deleted (or just closed, but if they don't care about not getting replies then that's not much of a threat). Yeah, it's more work for me, but if it gets to be too much then we can obviously either tweak the policy or scrap it completely. I'm pretty sure it's less work for people looking for leagues, not more. It is more work for advertisers, but the whole point is that that extra work should be rewarded with more interest from people looking for leagues. Maybe everything will be okay; the list just needs to be shorter.

Possibly, and that's why I wanted to hash it out here first. Thanks for the post.
