Vendazzle/Chuckwagon Rinky Dink to sell 3000 member's info "cheap"
Quote:It's still in the back of my mind [img alt=Smile]http://www.powersellersunite.com/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] My video gaming dedicated auction site - http://www.ChaseTheChuckwagon.com is still taking much of my time.http://www.powersellersunite.com/post-27...tml#271193 How would you feel if you registered on a site (Chuckwagon), and had your info (along with 3000 others) transferred to another site (Vendazzle) and sold for "cheap" to someone who wants to run their own site, when the admin decided he didn't want anything to do with it anymore? http://www.chasethechuckwagon.com/displa...er=klm1974 http://www.vendazzle.com/display_ratings...er=klm1974

[/quote] You're wrongly assuming that the average person who registers on a rink dink reads the privacy policy and TOS. A normal business person would read a company's policies before entering into a business relationship with another company, but it's fairly obvious rinky dink users don't read them because if they did they'd run screaming and never register. The privacy policies and TOS of the average rinky dink scream out, "this site is owned by a clueless boinktard with less experience running a business than the average 5 year old lemonade stand operator". The primary purpose of a site's TOS and other policies is to protect the site owner's ass by spelling out the terms of the 'contract' a user is entering into when they register on the site. 99% of rinky dink policies fail miserably at either protecting the site owner or spelling out the rules for users. Take a look at AlsoShat's TOS (http://www.alsoshop.com/terms,page,content_pages) and Plunderhere's privacy policy (http://www.plunderhere.com/content_pages...ge=privacy). WTF are those...they sure don't resemble legal documents. Now take a look at the policies of a site run by a real business: Etsy's TOS (http://www.etsy.com/terms_of_use.php) and Etsy's privacy policy (Etsy is a TRUSTe member so their privacy policy is a good example of what should be included on one http://www.etsy.com/privacy_policy.php) ...notice the difference between the rinky dink world and the real business world? After reading the rinky dink policies, why would anyone think that registering on a site that is obviously run by a clueless boinktard would be beneficial to their business? Quote: How would you feel if you registered on a site (Chuckwagon), and had your info (along with 3000 others) transferred to another site (Vendazzle) and sold for "cheap" To answer the question, I would be pissed but I have my doubts whether the average rinky dink user (or rinky dink owner for that matter) would even notice, care, or understand that a privacy violation had occurred.

Even AM Mikey was smart enough to add a privacy policy to his site, but that doesn't add anything to his integrity as PSU's spam king.

Quote:clueless boinktard defined: The same clueless boinktard spams their site on year old threads no one cared about in the first place. http://www.powersellersunite.com/post-27...tml#271470 So, PHPAuction's admin comes in to add an update about his software, admits it is an old thread, but ONA chimes in with their spam. And it's ok. Really. PSU only cares about certain spammers from sites with actual life. They are the only ones who need to spam PSU for members. Like Mo. Like the fisherman. Like Mikey. Like Alex (in the day) Like every other PHPProbid site online today. If they don't spam, no one will ever sell list their 25 cent library rejects bestseller books, $2 children's underwear brand new handled by thousands on the 3 year old Walmart clearance rack, and gently soiled tried on twice undergarments.

The sale of 3000+ members info should be complete, and not a word about it on the "sister" site in it's invisible privacy policy.

Re: Vendazzle/Chuckwagon Rinky Dink to sell 3000 member's info "cheap"
Not a word about it on the WHOIS records either. The WHOIS still lists "SoCalMike" as the registrant.
