You should be able to determine that from who created the thread.

For some it isn't too obvious if you aren't a frequent member, see jchan = keyclack; sherryton = originative etc.

Sure, we can ask vendors that they also include their vendor name in brackets in the title, if you think that will help. Although I think it will be clear from the context of the thread, and vendors generally have the Vendor rank + green star.
OfTheWild:
I dont really see the difference between a group buy and a pre order... someone offers up a group funded purchase, and people participate. I'm guessing you're talking about if a "Vendor" who sells lets say "stabs" on their website, wants to run a special group-buy price to drum up additional funding up-front for a bulk order (meeting a new MOQ price point for their cost)... it would be a "pre-order" now?
I had an observation the other day that might be of interest (or not?):
I find that I totally skip over looking in 'vendors' and 'artisan services | child boards'. I just don't want to drill down through all those sub forums one after another to find some gem I'm interested in.
For example;
I personally have no interest in RAMA's key caps so I never read that sub-forum. However, because that M65 keyboard went up in "group-buys" and I saw it, i jumped in on it. Now they are all going in their subsequent forums and hidden away from the front page. So i'll probably never get in on a Bro cap, a Ribbit, or know that Bunnylake was selling topre-mx stems 14 pages deep into a keycap sale I wasn't interested in. To everyone else including me you think "whatever dude, your loss"... but to someone trying to make a profit, they might think "well crap, i'm not reaching my demographic". Unless i'm the only one - but I doubt it.
Anyway, just my ramblings. Regardless of how its done, I know first hand and really do appreciate the hard work it takes to moderate such a large community. Thanks!
(I'd love to see a way to separate the active/open groupbuys from the closed/shipping/completed ones. Some day.)
