Attn: EVERYONE!..about vendors!

[changedman]

you don't want to be a mod. unless you like getting all sorts of remarks against you for doing something later found to be correct, or if you like being questioned, or if you like to be critized by fellow mods/admins... i communicated with people when i was a mod to no avail. no one really cares.

 

[DiS]

man, for the past week I saw like 3 people trying involve people in buying their stuff in group buys. Even tho Im not a moderator, I still tell them to cut the crap, become authorized vendor, and let people know that its unsafe to buy stuff from unauthorized "personel" hehe.

Pdh...keep your bitter BS out of my threads...out of this community...everyone knows you're the disgruntled ex-mod...we get it...move on...and this OT discussion ends now.

I'll keep those who have expressed interest in mind...DiS do you have links to these threads?

 

[Mr. Win]

First let me say that we have nearly 40 moderators! *All moderators of this community have a responsibility to monitor unauthorized vendor activity.

I appreciate the support guys (I don't appreciate smart ass remarks). What would be nice is to have like an AV/AMM roving patrol...maybe a couple members whose #1 mission is to keep a close eye out for unauthorized vendors who are doing more than "gauging interest" and members who need amm status...now this would be a friendly patrol because some vendors genuinely don't know about the rules...you will have to maintain a friendly but professional manner for this position...If this idea becomes a reality I'll make up a set of guidelines...

if you want, ill gladly try this position. Ill shot a PM of my thoughts on it.

geeze- i guess the only time people communicate is when they want you OUT OF THEIR THREAD.

had anyone listened to me, people would significantly lowered or Eliminated being scammed by 2loww. But no one did. Thats just one case.

 

[changedman]

i'm wondering- whats the monthly bill for this website run? no- seriously.

ph man when you tried to shut down the 2loww threads you just did it you didnt ask any question and it seemed all to matched with your skylab thing that you were just jealous. Since then there hasnt been any issues at all really most people catch them but still. i know you were pretty angry cause i was one of the people fighting you but i gave you credit when s*** didnt work out.

I appreciate the support guys (I don't appreciate smart ass remarks).

Dis the first is not a vendor or a AMM hes a member that found a good deal and basicly by doing all the work for the GB and he gets a better deal(more then likely) same with the 3rd one.

the second one antione already replied in the thread

 

[DiS]

hehe (crazy) = me = at work = doing (chair) and (dark) and(fight) to (boobs)and (stoned) and (band2) and (beer) because some people in my hotel are trying to (sleep). (rofl) in other words Im at work and dealing with assholes who are drinking, having prostitutes and having parties while others trying to get some sleep. hehe.

No sarcasm at all. Antoine is saying that buyers are protected if they buy from an authorized vendor, when in reality they are not!!!

 

[dominoy2k1]

he said it helps protect. nothing is 100% in this world dude.

 

[alexlitov]

care to explain how it helps protect??? As far as I see it, it only makes money for the site, money needed for hosting and crap...

Definately misleading...

how about this?

 

[alexlitov]

they are just trying to generate some interest!!! not selling anything at this time!!!!

 

[Antoine]

Exactly...

I’m wondering- what’s the monthly bill for this website run? no- seriously.

Around $300 per month at this time (will increase)...not including occasional hardware and software upgrades...

To those who can't accept reality...I'm not going to waste time responding to your accusations based on personal grudges and not on the facts.

DiS...I appreciate your support...but please be sure to familiarize yourself well with the AV / AMM rules and setup before calling out suspect threads...you can always pm if your not sure...thanks

Thanks for the tip orangezoom..I posted in that thread. I understand if they are trying to gauge interest but I've noticed how some vendors all too quickly assume sales and orders after gauging interest without much care for AV status...in which case their threads/business get suspended in this community until AV status is obtained or if not...they can not continue business here...

I'm guilty of having run two GBs last year. My bad...I won't do that again.
