I'd say remove the 5 day limit for ads but have them vanish if the agent hasn't been online for 5 days. The mere act of logging in on any day renews the ad for 5 more days until signed.
+1 for maybe 10-20 days i put up my WRs ad a couple of days before day40 she's a great WR imo but not elite enuf obviously to get any quick PMs by the time i started to get any offers the ad was expiring, when i went to refresh it was too late and i had to do it over and had went some amount of time w/ no ad up. i'd like to see either the time added to, or at least a warning when its about to expire. 5 days too short imo
Originally posted by Dub J Seriously, I've never had a dot in the marketplace for more than a few hours. If it takes you that long to sign or commit to a team you either build shitty dots or you're a problem agent.
I'd only say it should be extended to 9 days. Reason being that it's the length of post season, then you would refresh it for the season roll over and it would last till day 0. If you can't find a team in a 17 day time period then sign with a cpu team. If you can't get on one (because for some reason you think glb needs more QB's) then contact support and have them force you on a CPU team.
Ad's don't need to be sitting around all season. If you can't be bothered to log in once every 5 days or 9 days or whatever to refresh your ad, then how does that show you will be an active participant on a team, including training, applying VA's and SP's and so on.
So:
-1 Removing the limit. -1 Setting the limit beyond 10 days. +1 if you want to push it to 9 days. Even then that's too long but if you can't log in once a week to edit your ad or sign a contract then thats on you.

+1^^^^^^ This makes the most sense if there is a change to be made. If you log in the ad stays until signed, otherwise there is no need to do this as it is another thing that breeds inactivity IMO.
