bluewhiteflight Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 i also thought you couldnt sell on behalf of other people but i maybe wrong but someone high up in authority does it
Guest karl adams Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 LIFES TOO SHORT FOR ALL THE sh** THAT GOES ON HERE!!!!! their seems to be plenty of that too :-/ :-/
Blue Chequer Pied Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 Maybe so and if anything that is an error on my part - Not something that needed blowing out of proportion as it has been - Any questions have been anwsered on any subject regarding this forum but when they are spat out like this one in my view its out of order. If anyone feels the mods dont have the right to such a trivial thing as this, when they give so much of there time then shame on the member. Not scratching backs etc - We need the mods on this site more than they need the admin - Hence why i paid for my own Gold Membership. Im sorry if members dont approve of this but it is how it is and if it bothers that much then feel free not to become a Gold Member as seems to me the problems are coming from those who are not and never were going to be a Gold Member. Why dont you cut out all the preferential treatment, do away with gold membership and charge everybody that sell a commision % like any auction. All above board, nothing to hide that way the site gets return for everybody advertising and everybody knows where they stand. Better that than creating and old boys club.
ALF Posted December 26, 2009 Author Report Posted December 26, 2009 SO IF I DONT AGREE WITH THE VEIW'S THAT WE HAVE SEEN ON HERE WILL I GET A WARNING?????
gangster Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 I HOPE SO YOU CAN HAVE MINE AS WELL... ;)
ALF Posted December 26, 2009 Author Report Posted December 26, 2009 AND SO DID JIMMY WHITE BUT THE CLOWNS THAT DID IT DONT HAVE THE BAWS TO ADMIT TO IT : : : : AND 1 OF THEM IS NOW A MOD ON THIS SITE ASWELL :X :X :X :X :X NAE ANSWERS TO THIS POST THEN :-/ :-/ ??) ??) ??) :X :X :X :X :X
Guest strapper Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 as a gold member once again ill state im happy to pay for selling on here....as a mod well i wouldnt want that job...because some of the sh1 te they get isnt what i would not respond too. im a sec and have been for 5years and i know what cr ap i get..so i can only guess that some will take liberties and try to provoke mods. now i aint pointing out anyone ,but stating this in general...considering the mods do the job for nowt...then i feel a bonus for 12months work at £25 is a pitence. ill continue to pay my £25 if i intend selling. one thing i will say..although i have over stepped the mark on occasions i dont think the site would be as poular if left to run without them. if i feel a point i need to make to a mod i will make it...but i know i wouldnt want the job.
grdkeith Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 surely if every member pays the same fee/commision then it is all totally transparent and there can be no argument ever, so why is this not the case?
p charlton Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 getting good mods is the hard part of running a forum 25 free gold membership is nowt for the job they do it will even seem less if your getting 200-300 gold members lol
tskyes Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 Y IS IT THAT NOW THE SITE AS BEEN TAKEN OVER WE AV 2 PAY FOR OUR ADS IS IT THAT ITS BEEN TAKEN OVER 2 MAKE MONEY FOR WHOEVER ?WEN RICHARD RUN IT THERE WAS NO CHARGE ! MY I ALSO AD THAT I HAVE BEEN ACCUSED OF BEEN DISSRUPTIVE 2 THIS SITE 4 MY COMMENTS ABOUT THIS FEE !
THE FIFER Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 Why dont you cut out all the preferential treatment, do away with gold membership and charge everybody that sell a commision % like any auction. All above board, nothing to hide that way the site gets return for everybody advertising and everybody knows where they stand. Better that than creating and old boys club. the % for selling was the norm but for a long time lots were just coming on and selling and then you heard no more from them, we are trying to sort this out, and I think the 2 options going are fair and reasonable, and if the owners of the site get members to help them moderate it and give them a small reward, surely thats just thanking them for their work,

gangster Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 Did we not have that system on here - Did it not fail due to members not actually donating as they were meant to - 10%. IN FAIRNESS RICHARD TURNED A BLIND EYE TO MOST OF WHAT WAS GOING ON
ALF Posted December 26, 2009 Author Report Posted December 26, 2009 EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE BEEN CHARGED FROM THE START END OF!!"!!!!!!!
Blue Chequer Pied Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 Paul I would like to personally invite you now to become a Moderator on this site - For the work involved this site gets a great deal from the mods - Hours & effort - £25 a year!!! How many of your staff would give say 25 hours a week + for under 50p a week. None Feel free to come onboard. As for the charging members on site - Have you seen any Admin or mods mention it - No because it will never ever happen and we would never try it. Chris, Thanks for the invite but I have to decline your offer to be a moderator because I personally have no interest in it. I think you have made a serious error in judgement in this case and it would be easier to admit you are wrong than to defend a poor decision. If the mods want to sell make them pay the fee. If you want to pay them pay them. I have no problem with that what so ever. I do however have a problem with under-handed practices under-taken by some who would preach they are whiter than white and only moderate for their own gain. This reeks of MP's expenses in my view. You mention my staff ( which has SFA to do with this by the way) , what I wouldnt do is offer them a wage and then tell them they could help themselves to company property to top up their wages to make the reward fit the job they did.
BLACK W F Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 ITHINK £25 FOR SELLING NO BIG DEAL BUT INSTEAD OF LETTING MODS SELL FOR NOTHING JUST PAY THEM ALL£25 EACH AT END OF YEAR AND THE ONES THAT SELL PAY THE ONES THAT DONT KEEP THE MONEY JMO
p charlton Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 HELLO MR SWAPSHOP..... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;Dnowt wrong with swaping ive swaped a dog pup for some birds and never tried selling one lol ive just paid £55 for a two week advert in the loot for the two i still have
pjc Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 IN FAIRNESS RICHARD TURNED A BLIND EYE TO MOST OF WHAT WAS GOING ON And also when donations were made the donor had no receipt or message of thanks to tell the money had been received and who had it!

Guest peter.j Posted December 26, 2009 Report Posted December 26, 2009 fitstly what bright spark decided to call them gold members it infers that there somewhat elite and better than other members, paid up seller would be a better title and would be a lot better than copying pigeon chat ....come on your bigger than that....peter

I am all for the moderators being paid but no back-handers. The guys who just come on to sell well that is fair enough as well. They will contribute little anyway and £25 is nothing charge them a commission and you can do so on a sliding scale so the big earners pays more than the guy who sells half a dozen latebreds to cover corn bills. Just be upfront about it. Paul.
