Wow WW3

Right. Im a builder, i dont get any trade off here. I have priced ONE job up for someone off PF but that was WAY before i even got a website....he asked if any builders were local so i replied...

Im not expecting ANY work from passionford...and TBH i dont need it i have enough from word of mouth and our small local advert...I just put it up as when i posted a few pics of a 'sun circle' i did people seemed interestred....I like looking at building work and i presume so do others....it was in no way an advert!

Im not pissed off at the mod who pmd me, im not pissed off with Admin if these are the rules....i do find them pathetic rules, but thats not my gripe...

Im pissed off that ive been on PF from the beginning, and on here most nights....and someone has moaned about my link....

Theres some great people on here...but theres some right fooking penis' it seems too...

in the words of Phillip aka IMA

Death the the haters...of www.reynoldsandbriggsconstruction.co.uk

Like Stu says clarification is needed - but it also smacks to me of power crazy new mods - piss off & be a traffic warden for a month before being a mod

Seems very odd - hardly like Lee's aiming it a specific target audience or anything......

FPMSL @ Pete though - a mod for one day and he's getting in the neck already

Stu,

- You/Pet/ModTeam implemented the trader scheme to prevent people being bitten by fake traders, ensuring that only people with a real business traded on PF.

This would suggest that non traders are not allowed to freely advertise their services, otherwise, someone will be PM'ing/emailing/phoning you because they had problems with so and so.

- PF traders pay and generate income for the site, and they ovbiously deserve some form of "protection" against rogue traders stealing business away from them.

This is totally reasonable and expected, however, most paid up traders on here are somehow related to the car trade (breakers, parts, bodyshop, ICE, etc...).
So anyone not related to the car trader is hardly going to steal business away from them, and therefore they don't need to be "protected"

Rock and a hard place for me, I can see pros and cons with both.

How about a lower trader fee for those who are not in the trade (signature only, no banner or adverts), PF gets a little more funding, members are protected, existing traders aren't affected...

If you have a legit business and feel you might benefit from advertising for it anywhere, then, a small fee shouldn't be an issue to anyone who runs a business.

My tuppence

Mind you, banning links is a whole lot easier from a moderation point of view.

Said all i need to say on the subject. If i was profiting from PF or taking trade away from PF traders i would have understood..But as i say, i really DO NOT CARE if my link is allowed or not...all im bothered about is who was the arsehole that moaned about it...
