Is there any way to fix the bulletin board on the main page to where it works on mobile devices? Both my ipad and android phone do not allow me to scroll down on the bulletin board.

We did test the bulletin board with the latest IOS and Android devices. Please let us know what happens when you try to scroll down. Does the page itself just scrolls and not the content? Or is it not responsive at all? Which browser were you using?

Features (Marketplace)
So I've been setting auctions for years. Ever since platinum currency was introduced, people who use gold currency are abusing it by placing the amount less than 1 plat (10 million gold) such as 100 or 1 gold.
Recently I tried implementing bid increment to 1 plat, hoping it will make it easier and fairer to those who use plat. However, even with the bid increment, people with gold currency are abusing it by adding a bit more to the bid increment.
I understand that we will get rid of the gold currency completely in the future, but can we find a way to make it fair for those who are using plat in the auction for the time being? The only way the people using plat know they get outbid is when they see someone's name change as highest bidder despite bidding "same amount."

We will make an update to marketplace so the minimum bid is at least one platinum for auctions above a certain price.

Paw Search Issues 1 + 2
1) Recent search issues related to "Paw Dress Up All Gaia search" looks like the search is set to "Fashion Fray items only". If that can be disabled that should fix issue 1.
2) There's been a longer paw search issue, seeming dating back to changes made in March 2019 to paw items. Since there are multiple searches areas, listing which are of concern:
a) Marketplace search: Working
b) Paw Dress Up Inventory search: Working
c) Paw Dress Up All Gaia search: Bugged
technically this also affects Human Dress Up All Gaia search as you can search paw items in Human Dress Up
was a popular trick for making pose separations for mocks before invisibility cloak
d) Paw Avi Builder Inventory search: Working
e) Paw Avi Builder ItemDB search: Bugged
Now to define Bugged: You cannot search/find items that were released prior to the March 2019 changes.
tip: handy search term to test with [since it's a date based cutoff]: 2k18
p.s. possibly related search issue: Paw+Human Dress Up All Gaia/Avi Builder ItemDB: gaiapledge search does not return flairs released since hmm April 1st maybe, given their nature as an equip for both bases I can understand if they've got a unique glitch, and since can't preview them on an avatar anyway may not be a priority [can still do inventory and marketplace based searches for them fine so doesn't greatly impact ability to use ones you own]

We will have time to work on the search function this week, thank you for listing the detail to the error.

I want to suggest a feature for searching the MP: ability to filter items that are in my inventory. (AKA, search only shows items in my inventory, or search only shows items not in my inventory ) . Is this reasonable or too much of a database ******** to bother with?

The "items in my inventory (or not)" filter should work fine for those who have less than 20,000 items. Figuring out how to make it work with larger inventory will be a challenge but definitely can be done. It's on our todo list.
