... "should be" but sometimes it's the only way to handle things. Maybe I missed a post by the admin,, did he come out and say tht that this is now mandatory? We all have choices, you included.. some things change.. today.. .looks like a day that will change many things. Staff do the best they can with what they have to work with. ~ have some understanding ~

Guys,, it is obvious that we are all being watched. RIGHT?? So.. is this issue best discussed behind closed doors, or RIGHT HERE IN THE OPEN??? I dont think throwing around ideas here is the best for anyone to do. Let ADMIN take care of things so that he...."becomes compliant" and.... "let the chips fall where they may" ... RIGHT? | READ |

My quote was of Steve G saying that admins condone the actions of the dealers not posting in their forums. Andreww, I agree with you that dealers should activley post in their forums, we have had much discussion about it as staff, I'm sure it has went it's rounds in the admin section of RWG too. I am laughing at Steve G's comment that we condone this and "are equally as guilty for adding and abetting these dishonest dealers and giving them the opportunity to screw us?" -LMAO Well F*ck me with a pitch-fork or something. I have never liked dealers setting up shop in a rep forum just to post their link to their website, or... having 4-10 month old pics of reps that are 1st generation when we are buying 4th, Ultimate, Supremo.. whatever the f*ck... ya know.. We on the same page dude!

That's just silly! I can see it now.... hold on... it's coming............. Picture.. In Lights... dah.dah.dada! "We are Banning Josh and Andrew for not posting in their foums in a couple months" LMAO Yeah.. that wouldnt not have caused a freakin riot! Everyone would have been yelling... "off with their heads" if any staff would have proposed such a thing. "adding and abetting these dishonest dealers and giving them the opportunity to screw us?" Yes,, you nailed it, dont forget to take your loupe with you when you hand review every rep you puchase as you travel to China to ensure that this does not happen to you again! Seriously,, I can only imagine that you are in the middle of your street running around in circles while naked trying to figure out where in the hell that flying saucer went!

This the one?

Thanks chubbchubb, everyone give him a round of applause, he normally doesn't open for me. Wow... that was a lot of reading. Mistakes are made by all of us at some point or another. The key is learning from mistakes and making yourself a better person / business, this can be applied to members, customers, dealers and forum management alike. You usually come out a better person and end up having new friends / customers because of it. All of this is going to be a tough pill to swallow for someone in the market to purchase a new rep. Look at the nature of this business, we are all skeptical of what we are buying so it only goes to reason that clear - accurate communication is the key to a successful relationship. Andrew, I have enjoyed your conversation on many occasions, So I must say.. friend to friend,, Perception is everything, facts support perception as seen in the many times you and Josh / others have benefited when members answer scared noobs questions on their recent or soon to be purchase from you. However,, the perception by members here (your customers) is that there is foul play here and YOU Andrew are going to have to lead the way and clean some things up... even if you believe that you are in the right, That is not the perception so.... that is not the reality and if you hope to salvage the relationships you have with customers here, you are going to have to begin fixing the issues that have been presented here. You and the others now have a stigma, you are going to have to work hard to fix it. Greg P.S. Hi fellas, hope everyone is doing well here on RWG

Congratulations on the 1st year of successful operations! No doubt that you should look forward to many years more! Hat's off to all the Staff here, you do a hell of a job and have my respect. Greg

Please do me a favor, email me at teampanerai@charter.net. 1. Provide your username, 2. Go to http://whatismyipaddress.com/ and tell me what your IP address is 3. Give me the email address that you used when you signed up. I'll take a look at it. Greg

No apologies necessary. My etiquette knows this is probably best in admin section I am not too full of myself to not ask for opinions. RWG & RWI are two nice sites. We should work together when we can. I value all opinions of those who .... understand. Again, question best made in different forum.

I'm sorry you took it as sarcasm. It was a serious question, one that we both face. I withdraw my question, feel free to delete. Have a good night, Greg

So... whats the solution here? What's admin going to do to Jos and Andrew???? Are they going to ban them for lying?? I'd like to know, maybe I ask for vote on the same thing on RWI.

What puke that I see being spewed here. Let me guess, No agenda right! LOL

NO reason to stay away. A lot of nice things going on there, just like here! I dont think you asked for jfreeman420 to come with you, but maybe I missed that. I'd be happy to assist. Please pm me your user name & I'll activate your account. Greg

I think Sharrington has Hat envy! Thats my take on the whole thing. D4M

Dont be so sure Ken! Maybe I'll go poke sticks at Neil or something.?? Give you guys something to gawk at till the Dark Side turns it's lights out again. See, like RWG, RWI likes to keep our server .... somewhere else .... We happen to keep it mobile. We have our server strapped to Tim's back and communicates through satellites. It happens to be a very cloudy day on the east coast of the U.S. and those of you with XM Radio should know what I'm talking about.

We are restoring from a backup right now. At this moment, you would not be able to access anything but shortley everything will be A-OK.

Damn, I knew I made a mistake! I named them Walker & Texas Ranger. RWG, You've been a great host, we will always be there for you as you were for us in our time of exile. Greg

I've gotta NUKE something.... this is killing me! With RWI being down I realized something.... I've got kids and they are 4 & 6 years old. Oh.. and the wife apparently is [censored] off at me. Who'da thunk it?

Pugwash, I was at the meet "in" Paris but you guys didnt show. I ended up having fun all by myself. Lots of fun though, next time you need to be more specific!

Damn, Does this mean that I have to go post in the Newbie section here? I'll lead with... "I was typing my complaint to paypal about one of the dealers here when I started thinking, ? Who has the best Sub ? I'm sure that whom ever I buy this best sub from, I had better make sure that when I send it back I mark on the package !REPLICA WATCH, REPLICA WATCH! on the package. Oh, I almost forgot, can someone tell me if it is a good idea if I post replicas on the bay as gens? Thanks for all your input, noob-Daytona. p.s. I like red & black flame, please & thank you!
