RE: Wagglepop 2: Deja Vu as Auction Site That Left Sellers Stranded Reopens
This made me laugh about Scott Vulgar...
Quote:Vote for Scott to be the best photographer on MySpace. and many of these from his cheerleaders... Quote:I voted a couple of times today I don't think it's been an hour yet so I have to wait a little to vote again but I will. Quote:I have been voting...every hour unless I am sleeping or out shopping and then the Vulgar one says.. Quote:I wanted to stop in and thank everyone for their support. DO NOT FEEL LIKE YOUR VOTE IS IN VAIN! I recieved an email from the contest coordinators today that stated "The platform gets cleaned up at 11:59 October 31st. Sorry, there is no Quote:Whoo Hoo he passed Abbie, one of the only Photographers left in the top 10!! blah blah blah...more cheers... Quote:I've been voting whenever I can! I'm going to start putting my kitchen timer on to ring every hour to remind me to vote every hour. And more from the vulgar one... Quote:Thank you so much to everyone for all of their support. The final results will be posted later on today after all of the miscategorized entrants are weeded out. I'll be back to post them when they are released. And my favorite part...a mere 9 minutes later... Quote:Well folks, the results are up, and I am very sad to say that I was removed from the final results, according to the organizers, due to "voting irregularities". They told me more, but I don't believe it for a second. I am sorry that I let everyone down after you devoted so much time and effort to this. Suffice it to say, that we had more votes than the indicated winner, so in my mind at least, we won, and I thank you for that. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I saw that VOTE FOR SCOTT thread and was infuriated. I think I'd mentioned something about it on TT a week or so ago. I even signed up with MySpace two days ago for the sole purpose of tracking the vote and reporting it to MySpace, but couldn't figure out where the contest was and how to report it. I'm glad someone caught it.
"Voting irregularities?" Nah .. . . . . Since when is voting every hour on the hour for one candidate considered a voting irregulatity? Why that's perfectly normal in Waggleland, where buying each other's items and leaving immediate feedback is the way business is done; where twisting the traffic reports to "pump up the volume" is perfectly legit; where cramming the listing tote board with thousands and thousands of sports cards and beads to give the impression the site is "growing" is basic business; and where sending payment due invoices after a fully paid-up member has been excommunicated is perfectly honky-dory. Love the post by Cash on the site changes. If you've been following this thread, you will note that Ray didn't put a single dime or iota of effort into any of it. All were accomplished by a cheerleader who donated his time, energy and expertise for "the cause." Some followers were so impressed by this "unselfish" gesture that they offered FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE in the effort. I couldn't believe it! Not only are these people willing to pay for the privilege of having no sales, they are offering to finance "improvements" that nobody even asked for. Of course, who's taking the credit? Ray/Karen. Not even a small "thank you" to the member who did the work. |

Quote:Last week Karen asked members; How can we improve the buyer experience? Just like Wp1 He trolled the FAS boards for suggestions from concerned sellers. That's what encouraged everyone to back him in the first place. He seemed like an "honest" guy to most, who was hammering out a replacement to eBay, using their own personal suggestions (when eBay would not even give them the time of day). When it was revealed he was only using Rainwerks software, it became evident why he never took ANY of the suggestions made on the boards. He just opened board dialog to seem democratic, but he was unable to actually implement any of the good suggestions about site functionality. By the way, that Wagglepoop thread at OTWA is one of the best reads still up on the boards. It follows it through from beginning to end, and luckily preserves many quotes that would have been lost forever at FAS. I dare someone to link to it on the WP boards. LOL.

I'd do it, but since I managed to circumvent my "termination" so I can "lurk", I don't want to blow my cover. I know that some others posters here are registered and maybe they will be brave enough.

RE: Wagglepop 2: Deja Vu as Auction Site That Left Sellers Stranded Reopens
Member's Question:
Quote: Hi, I went to Find and put in Vintage Postcards just to check and see how often my listings appear. I was very surprised to see that I am only showing 11 feedbacks when I actually have 19. When you click on my listing the number is 19. I got the new feedback days ago so it should have updated by now. Is anyone else having this problem? I like to flaunt whatever feedback I have.....I have worked hard for it!!!Answer: Quote:Hello Members, Translation: I'm going to run for a political office and be my own speech writer....This is my practice forum ![]() |
