Every ladder, about half way through the d2 trading search function becomes more or less useless due to ppl creating wall of text Mule Sellouts.
This creating a search hit for every item in their thread and resulting in massive amount of time waste and possibly a couple of dead mouse scrolls.
I know the item you search for is highlighted, but I don't believe that to be enough.

A cap on how many items you're allowed to post in a single thread would make this problem more or less disappear, thus making the search function last all ladder.
I suggest the maximum amount of items/thread should be around 5-10 items.

I can imagine though you've had this request before, but please do consider.

Save the scrolls! :)

I think limiting the amount of items to 5-10 per thread would only result in more threads and ultimately more scattered FT topics, which I don't think would be a positive change to the trade forums.

Also, keep in mind you need to add a poll to your site suggestions, otherwise they will end up closed.

Feels like if I search for example Waterwalk I get a list of 200 other items with 1 pair of Waterwalks among them. I don't like the idea that you have to use the search function on site and web browsers search function to find 1-5 Waterwalks on each page result. I call that pretty scattered.

I might make a poll in future when i have more time, thanks for letting me know.

It would only create more threads per user.
Then not only do you have the problem you indicated, but an even larger flood of topics from one user violating the top 50 rule.
