Stop doggn people out

[pete28]

Almost every thing ive posted people have a wise ass comment or repost repost repost!!! Im getting so sick of it. Two of my posts were from the UK but when i did it they said it WILL ship to the u.s. This problem has to stop or people not as nice as me will start giving the site a bad name and will discourage new members. And there is no unity in the site its all individuals maybe a better sense of help and understanding would make tis site go a long way.

I have noticed the same thing happening to many new members who dared to post on this forum. It appears that only the older members "own" this forum and they don't like it when a new member posts a decent deal probably because it hurts their ego!

I've been noticing the closer it gets to Christmas, the worse it is getting.

Makes one wonder what happened to the Christmas spirit and all.

Some retard will probably come in and reply that you're reposting. They did when I complained about the exact same thing.

So Josh, If you have complained about the exact same thing already, this thread is indeed a repost!!!

I agree with the OP, people need to be nicer to each other, it's just that a lot of people are too stupid to know that! :nod:

I agree that the doggin has to calm down a little, I've gotten more than a few myself. But the truth of the matter is that, people don't want to read things over and over again and if it is a repost, then it needs to get deleted so there is no redundancy throughout the website.

Key words here: Efficiency and Streamlining. Those people are helping out the rest of in a way so that we don't look at the same deal in two different postings. If there was ten deals going on and 3 postings for each, guess how many of them you'll need to go through. Limiting just one thread to one deal also keeps all of the posts/ ideas/ discussions within that one thread so if you are trying to read about the deal, you won't have to jump from thread to thread.

Although I do not like to get criticized about what I post, most are critical in a positive way, so I don't mind it. I just mind the little comments that everyone makes JUST to rack up some points for posting; this definitely takes away from our ideal means of efficiency.

I agree that some people need to be nicer to others, especially the newer members. But, pete28, I looked through some of your posts and I didn't really see any rude comments that were directed toward you as OP. I saw people saying reposts and for your UK posts, they only said "UK only". I don't think they were "doggn" you.

For me, I do say "repost" and provide the url for the original thread when I do see a repost, but it's with no disrespect to the OP. I do that simply to let the mods know (I have started to do mod alert in case they didnt' see the post so they can move it to the proper thread, as it IS annoying to see many reposts and also organizes the forum a bit) and also to let the other people know that there is an original thread somewhere else where they might learn more about what others have said about the deal.

That being said, I think that the people who responded to your UK posts with just "UK only" were only informing the other people what they saw in the deal. A way to prevent this kind of comments, if you don't like them, may be just to address that in your post, saying that the offers says UK only but you had evidence or reasons to believe that they will send to the US. With that, people can then decide whether they want to go forth with the deal or not. :)

If I were wrong and those people whose posts you didn't like were really picking on you, then shame on them! I personally didn't take it that way, though.

Keep up the posting as some of your contributions are rather good!

Well some beginner need relax and be less sensitive about people calling repost or make wise ass comment. Some of us are just joking around and with no bad will intended, as JoonBug pointed out.

I know a few times I politely mention it's repost and provide original link and the poster would go berserk.

If it's repost oh well, better luck next time. Oh this is repost ;) It was discuss many times before.
