This will be our theme song on D-day... we can all raise our mugs and sing!!! Bye Bye Mr. Wagglepop Guy (sung to the tune of American Pie) A long, long time ago, I can still remember how that low fee used to make me smile And I knew if I had my chance, that I could make my listings dance and maybe Id make money for a while But censorship would make me shiver, no advertising theyd deliver bad news on the doorstep this guys just a big shlep .I cant remember if I cried when I found that Ro-me-o had lied but something made me laugh inside, the day, Wag-gle-pop . Died. So bye bye Mr. Wagglepop Guy, your revolutions no solution so just curl up and die and them good ole poppers were drinkin Kool Aid and rye singin this will be the day that Ray Dies . This will be the day that Ray dies . Did you write the book of lies and do you leave skid marks when you wipe? If Mr. Whipple tells you so . And do you believe in listing goals and can bunny slippers save your mortal soul and can you teach me how to list real slow? Well, I know you and Karen are one in the same but Then again, whats really in a name? You both can delete posts I guess thats what matters the most! I was a happy ebay sellin girl But thought Id give Wagglepop a whirl But the deleted posts made my hair uncurl The day Waggle-pop died. I started singin, So bye bye Mr. Wagglepop Guy, your revolutions no solution so just curl up and die and them good ole poppers were drinkin Kool Aid and rye singin this will be the day that Ray Dies . This will be the day that Ray dies . Now for three months Ive been on my own And AdWord fees can still make me groan, But thats not how it used to be. When the Ka/Ray cried that Toolers were mean, In some slippers he borrowed from james dean In a voice that sounded like Edie Amin, Oh, and while Romeo was looking down, Karen stole his thorny crown. The forums were adjourned; No replies were returned. And while Andrew read a book on sharks And Karen left Wagglepop on a lark And Ray played with himself in the dark The day Waggle-pop died. I started singin, So bye bye Mr. Wagglepop Guy, your revolutions no solution so just curl up and die and them good ole poppers were drinkin Kool Aid and rye singin this will be the day that Ray Dies . This will be the day that Ray dies . This is a long freaking song more to follow at a later date!! ROFL!!! [/quote] VERY WELL DONE PLATSKI!!!

Just found this in the: Advanced Selling: Wagglepop Stores - Share Your Promotional Ideas Quote:xxxxxxxxxxxxx 06 Jul 2007 03:35 Bolding is mine. Would this be considered a nice forum? I personally have found everyone here quite pleasant! [/quote] Yes...This IS a nice forum! Red bolding is mine... NOTE to Lurking Poppers - No matter how much promotion you do for your store, it won't matter because KayAndRay bite the hands of those that FEED HIM or simply drown them in . Lets see, what is the percent of the former Wagglepoppers that left because of Ray...? If it's not 100% it close! There is no HOPE for Wagglepop! STOP DRINKING THE KOOLAIDE! There ARE other places to sell that have far more traffic than Wagglepop ever had or will have.

[quote author=sherrand link=topic=3775.msg59993#msg59993 date=1183674381] Update to the Store Update: [quote author=sherrand link=topic=3775.msg59918#msg59918 date=1183663431] Store Update: KBDesigns & Accessories - 5 items, empty but not closed. New store that opened on Axeman Day. Riverwood Books and Collectibles - started delisting from 2,423 items, closed. ironwood etc. - 318 items, closed. Disney World Vacation Rentals - 5 items, closed. Registered Apr/07 Highway98 - 2470 items, closed. (No surprises there) [/quote] [/quote] Highway 98?? Is that not GAELICTITCA on the PSU forum? Wow, he's gone from WagglePoP? Isn't that something? I remember he and DB going at it in that thread. It seemed every time DB posted something he was right behind her to oppose her views of WagglePoP. And now he's no longer there, isn't that something? For some odd reason I AM SURPISED. lol [/quote] In a way, I respected Gael on PSU. He definitely defended WP. He even started his own "rah, rah" Reporting from the Frontlines of WP thread. He was very pragmatic about it all. Not like the total - drugged, cultist followers who looked upon Ray as the Second Coming. My big problem with him is that he had no scruples. It didn't matter to him whether Charles Manson or Jack the Ripper was running the show, as long as being at WP put a little butter on his bread. I just didn't get it, because in no way Jose, did I want my name to be associated with a lying, cheating, egocentric, paranoid, greedy sociopath. For me it was not about the monthly fee or the lack of sales, it was about ethics. Even if Ray chose to dispense with the store fee, I would have fled. Even as late as March, Gael was waving his pompoms.

And then, the follow-up post by Xbaystores JUST ONE MONTH LATER: Quote:Posted: Apr 2007, Sat 07, 3:54 Post subject: bolding mine. [/quote][/quote] DB That popper changed his mind again. I think another popper posting on that thread, who sees us as evil incarnate, convinced him we are so wrong and she is so right when it comes to WP. He stopped de-listing. So he never did leave and is still there today. Instead he put more stock in his store but from what I can tell, hasn't had a sale in 2 months. He also started posting rah-rah support on the WP boards but that has dropped in direct proportion to his um... sales success. I wonder what he is thinking now? Probably ready to smother that someone with a baby blanket.
The one thing you can never afford to lose is your temper.

Re: Wagglepop 2: Deja Vu as Auction Site That Left Sellers Stranded Reopens
OK everyone, I started a Squidoo Group:
Seller Mania Online Sellers Group SEE MY SIGGY BELOW FOR ADDRESS Once you have your lens started, head over there and add it... you can keep tweaking you lens, but get it added!!! LOL I am tweaking and tweaking so what you see when you first go is probably much different than what you will see when it's finished!!! I am adding and deleting modules so bear with me. I added my own lens as featured just to see what the module looked like on the site but they have polls, discussions, links and all types of modules to keep our group looking good. So head over, join up if you have a lens address (I'll add a module for those of you who don't have one yet, at least you can add your store till you get your lens built) All in all I think this is going to be a lot of fun... and hopefully bring in some traffic!!! LOL I will be admin'ing the site so please let me know if you have any questions, comments and SUGGESTIONS are always welcome. Just PM me... Thanks guys!! |
