OK just a quick followup on what I am researching and why I wanted those posts pulled and brought here.
Most already know there is no Karen but did you know karen was invented with a last name? Here is the correct name for WP's CC1 Karen Morrow. Now it is obvious to me and should be to most people that one person is writing all the newsletters, posts and all the policies for WP. That person is Ray. Look at the common terms used and view the similar spelling mistakes throughout the site and from CC1's posts. It's all Ray. So why the name Karren? I did a little bit of research tonight to find if there is a possibility that there is a Karen at WP but here is my list for qualifications:
1) Must live within 50 miles of Ray's house (1 posibility at a distence of 46 miles)
2) Must be a single women who may have been divorced with no children
3) Must have past work experience with Ray? Â
4) Must be able to work 24/7/365
5) Must be willing to work for free
There are more qualifications but that is enough for now. Based on what I have learned Karen is a family member of Ray's who has been divorced and has remarried, hence the name hurts nobody and if Ray every needs someone to pose as CC1 thar she is. There must be some kind of a stipend involved or something but in the end WP is only Ray.

Quote:A good businessperson is certainly a skeptic, as all level-headed businesspeople should be. A cynic is something else entirely, and will dismiss Wagglepop out of fear and weakness.
Most of those who have not yet joined us, or are still unsure, can safely be labeled "skeptics", and we welcome the opportunity to earn their presence and business.
We consider it an honor to have that opportunity, and will continue to work even harder in the future to build a site that all members can be proud of.
That is my favorite portion, I love those lines.
So are we to believe the deadbeat sellers (sorry Ray's term not mine) are skeptic's or cynic's?

Any bets that ray (yes, lower case) calls the current sellers "Meal Tickets" ?Â

That's putting it lightly. Suckers is a better word that ray would use in this case.
Just think if you pull off the same amount of listings tomorrow you will drop 2 pages in the count. The pages tend to go alot faster at page 6.

Just an update to some of the new WP numbers as of May 1st
WP store count = 355
Showcase stores = 10
Featured stores = 19
bolding mine.
You mean 255? Right? 355 is a distant memory.
Funny how all those "deadbeats" seem to be doing quite well on other venues and with their own sites. If I'm not mistaken, Rat's blog gets more traffic than all of WP. (don't take that as an insult, Rat). A few more months of no new fee hikes at eBay and Ray's pathetic excuse of an e-commerce site and grandiose plans to be king of Poopville will be in the crapper.
No offense taken DB.Â
I ran across this little "flash from the past" on the eBay store boards this morning:

Thanks for the follow-up.
In my experience it is always good to have lively, open debate, otherwise you just end up with a room full of people agreeing to agree, and that's never good.
Without change, there cannot be growth. Without growth, soon enough, a company won't even exist.
Just to set the record straight, I consider myself to be just the owner of a very poor running.....Ferrari!
eBay will always be my 'Ferrari', we just need to get it tuned-up and running right!
Ray
Funny how attitudes change....
Of course this follow up post was the funniest part:

Oh but the Ray quotes, the Ray quotes are priceless!

Ha Ha! That changed didn't it? If it didn't, he couldn't be too happy with the WP boards, they sound like a bunch of lobotomized smurfs.

I guess that would make WP is his yugo.

Dude, I need a BIG bag. We went through a 40(?) pound bag last year. It's a 3500 gallon pond with about 30 Koi. "Bubba" (the largest) is 22" long ! The small ones are 8-10".
Watcha got?

The best quotes come from the boinktard hypocrite's mouth himself:
The eulogy for WP1:
Quote:Within hours, I will be closing Wagglepop for good, and forever.
The servers will be shut down, and all drives reformatted, destroying any and all personal data.
No one owes a single penny.
This whole idea started simply because of people, and my faith in them, and my desire to make a difference.
Now, it's people that have left me no other choice but to shut it down.
What started out as an interesting challenge has instead become the most painful, personal few months of my life, and my confidence in what I believed about faith and humanity are shaken and shattered..... perhaps forever.
To those who supported me, I cannot express enough how proud I am of the journey we took together, and how much your support and kind words have meant through the longest of days and nights.
I will be forever grateful, and carry it with me always.
To those who most assuredly have not supported me, or Wagglepop...... Who have day after day, minute by minute done everything possible to destroy the site...... I have but a few words:
Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
If I live a hundred more years before I encounter such morally bankrupt miscreants again, it will be a day too soon.
Ultimately, the only eyes that need judge us that count are two: our own, and those of God.
In both regards I am clear as to what I have accomplished, and had worked so very hard for, and in that, I find my only necessary redemption.
I'm looking forward now to walking away from this interesting online experience, away from my computers, away from the judging eyes of anonymity.....and feeling the grass on my feet and the sun on my face again.
I'm going back to the 'real world', where people look you in the eye when they speak to you, where "please" and "thank you" are heard, and where simple decent behavior and effort are appreciated, and rewarded.
Farewell, and Good Luck.
Rest in Peace, Wagglepop...... We hardly knew ya.
Ray

and then, this classic. See how Mr. "Decent Behavior" expresses himself on the boards at eBay:
Quote:ha ha ha ha ha! OMG you are not going to believe THIS! The dirty rat bas*ards are RAISING the ebay motors insertion fees! $1.00 to 9.99 is now .35 instead of .30! Holy cripes , these mo****r f****ers got some BIG BIG balls. Jesus. What's next? They gonna come to my house and shoot my cat? So, basically, Im begging STILL for the honor of relisting, just so I can pay MORE. Other than this, I am speechless --- every day something goes wrong or costs more. Ah yes, ebay, the perfect American company: charge more, deliver less, and tell your customer to go screw themselves, with a smile of course! Couldn't be any more disgusted with this lousy company.
and more from Mr. Civility
Quote:Two weeks today. But at least you rotten miserable no good leeches had the nerve to raise my fees 20%. Make sure you change the name too.... ScrewUBay.... Ugh.
we're not done yet.
Quote:Day 13 and counting.....Hello? Hello? Come-in ebay....anybody working? What the h*ll are you doing to fix the inability to bulk relist on ebay motors? wait, I know.....N O T H I N G. As usual. No system announcement. Scripted e-mail responses. Live chat conversations that should be bronzed and put into the Comedy Hall Of Fame. Great job, ebay....just keep counting that money, and I'll keep bending over for ya - soon, I think I'll start to like it. You lazy bums. Get off your ass*s today and FIX THE DAMNED PROBLEM!
bolding mine
Good morning to all of you miserable no good leeches, dirty rat bas*ards, mo****r f****ers, and morally bankrupt miscreants
