Ok Aaron, I think its a crap Forum at Supplychain Happy now ? Ellis Greensitt http://supplychain.org.uk/phpBB2/index.php It's only as crap as you make it, my personal preference is UK.d-i-y since I don't have to signup or hand my details over to a company who is essentially also functioning as a business. Furthermore lots of advertising I've seen for supplychain's forum has been based on pointing out negative facts about already well established sources of help for the DIY public. Remember this these forums are free-for-all and you should just be thick skinned enough to ignore the crap and make use of the helpful information. Fair enough you get your share of people who are unhelpful on here, but you also get a lot of idiots who either refuse help and are just downright stupid and dangerous and shouldn't be allowed anyway near a AA battery let alone mains electrics. People like that get unhelpful, sarcastic and rude replies because they need them to prevent them from killing themselves! It's not that people are being snooty purposely... Unless of course you are one who refuses to search archives and as such don't get particuarly helpful replies because the same questions are being asked every week. To be hounest it's just the same as life, if you want to do something dangerous someone will always tell you. If you are being anoying people will ignore you and/or be sarcastic. Dunno, plug your forums as much as you like but don't through your toys out of the basket when someone gets fed up of your plugging and/or has a bad opinion of your forum. It's just childish. -- Regards, Aaron. |

Ellis Greensitt wrote: On the contrary Johnty, This newsgroup seems to promote negativity and paranoia. Im just trying to fit in Ah, no. You are seen on here as the figurehead for the company and the forum you are promoting (whether you are the de facto figurehead or not). You conduct, and especially your responses on here, should be above reproach. Respond to insults and abuse with courtesy and politeness; be generous with your expert advice. This will reflect well on your business and your website and, possibly, may encourage visitors. Trading like-for-like posts on here will most certainly not. Please post an address where I can send my invoice for this image consultancy work... |

The professional people who began the forum believe in freedom of speech. Ah yes, free speech. Spammers *love* to tell us all about the virtues of free speech. Particularly when 'free' means 'at not/negligible cost to the sender'; regardless of the costs to the recipients in time, attention, storage, signal-to-noise. Where 'free' - to the sender - means leeching off the accumulated social capital of established networks of interest, and/or technical means of communication. Any similarity between the crude actions of email spammers, and those who pop up in established fora saying - not just the once, but repeatedly - 'hey! pipple! look over there! it's new! it's whizzy! it's got HTML and PHP and all sortsa stuff! you're gonna love it!' - is left as an exercise for the reader...

Bob,
You came to the Electricians Forum at http://supplychain.org.uk/phpBB2/index.php with the sole purpose of attempting to spoil a good thing. You are a narrow minded idiot and are not representative of the other users of this newsgroup. As for the Siviet Union ? is that somewhere on Mars, where you originate from perhaps. -- "Bob Eager" wrote in message ...

Bob,
what are you going on about ? I dont recall admitting anything ? You are free to post your views at http://supplychain.org.uk/phpBB2/index.php However, you are not free to recruit a group of imbeciles who think they own this newsgroup, to raid the forum to try and disrupt it. Are these the actions of men that should be taken seriously ? By now, news of your crappy, ill concieved raid will have travelled far and wide and be serving to rubbish your already weak position.
