they way it is now, its like one big confusing website, make them two different sites.
they are 2 completely different sites.. they are 2 vbulletin 3.06 installs .. all we did was some custom hacking to allow the user database to be the same.. all we did was provided a link back between them because alot of peopel use both.
i think what is a bit confusing is that TF looks so similar to TR, alot of peopel think they are still on TR .
Charles.. i think that about the forsale stuff too.. its something we are considering..
as for the single button deal..i am thinking for of a small header across the top .. very thin.. with a text link to TF and TR .. showing we run both sites.. and if we add more in the future put them up there too.. kinda like on the top of slashdot.org
i also agree on separate profiles .. but its harder then you think to do .. we'd definately like to keep the userbase synched so you only have to register on one site to register on the other.. that was done mainly to give Tf a "ready to go" userbase.
