When were classifieds supposed to be removed from New Search results?

A couple weeks ago, Jeska Linden posted the following message in a thread about Classifieds in New Search:
From: Jeska Linden
Sorry for the confusion - we are no longer including classified ads mixed into the "all" search results.

In the new All Search tab, classified ads are ONLY appearing on the right hand side with all relevant keyword searches, sorted by price paid (they are pulled exactly as they appear in the Classifieds tab). They appear in the column labeled "CLASSIFIEDS (paid ads)" and will carry over to other pages as well (ie: the first 10 on the first page of results, the next 10 on the next page of results, etc).

We hope to build a more robust classifieds system in the future - watch for announcements over the next few months.

But if you click the following link you will see a bunch of classifieds come up (especially on the second page), mixed-in with the regular search results, and NOT sorted in order of amount paid, like they are in the upper-right corner of the results window.


Was Jeska talking about some new version of New Search that has yet to be released, or have I missed some subtlety in her post?

The results option you are looking for is not meant for the All(old) or All(new) tabs, but the All(newer) tab to be released in the next version of search. After a dozen or so 500 post threads complaining about the All(newer) search, features will be announced for All(newest), and the subsequent All(screwit) searches.

It seems to be something that they have to retool every time the reboot the servers.

LOL. I think I prefer the last version of these mentioned.
