   The fix(es) for this "problem" are:   
      
   1.  Disable dupe checking in BBS Ads sub-boards.   
   2.  Alter your Ad post slightly each time.  I use a script to insert the    
   current date at the bottom of my Ad before it's posted.  That way it's    
   seen as a different (non-dupe) message.   
      
    ph> What is the "10000 message CRCs" setting?   
      
   It means it will search 10000 messages to see if the current one matches    
   any of them and is therefore a dupe.  Doesn't make any sense to have    
   that set like that if you only keep 1000 messages.  Make them match.  I    
   suggest 5000 for both.   
      
      
      
   ... Pros are those who do their jobs well, even when they don't feel like it.
