Right now they are pretty passive features. They sit at the bottom of the marketplace area, and they are excluded from showing up in the "unread post" or "what's new" searches, just like the moto-news section is excluded. People can post in the threads that are in those sections. I'm considering having the threads auto-moved into one of the other marketplace sections if someone does reply to a post, so it gets more visisbility. (just like how the moto-news section works). But - I'm somewhat wary of putting a generic eBay auction in with the rest of marketplace threads, as it might take some focus away from the long-time users here who are trying to sell their stuff to other fellow users here.

What do people think? Have you checked out the new forums? There have been many purchases on eBay over the last week or so from links from that forum, so it's getting usage by some folks, but it's hard to tell if it's mainly registered users or guests who found their way here via a search engine.
