As I was clickety clicking away, I saw this between two seller clickable ads. 

I had to read it twice and then wipe off the screen (musn't drink and read at WP).

HELLO POPPERS - your competition is each other.  They are pitting seller against seller and NOT bringing in buyers.  Time to scream STOP THE REVOLUTION - I WANT TO GET OFF!!!!

Quote:I'm wondering if there is something wrong with site meter. I have not had a single hit today. Thats a first.
No, popper, not at all, and it won't be the last either.  Mrgreen

Quote:i have not had a hit either, is there other ways to help get exposure?

Why, yes there is, ask your friendly store owners and they will show you how to spam Craigslist and the boards at other sites!  Mrgreen

Quote:I don't think it is working either!! I have had one, and I usually get lots more!!

Since no other popper has given you proper kudos for the one hit, I will.  Thumbsup

Quote:It has been slow since Thanksgiving. think it is working. I have had only 13 hits today.
Yes, it is working - just not for you.  Mommy Karen will be by soon to tell you why this is traditionally the slowest part of the retail selling cycle and how advertising will not help.  Your products must be junky and frankly, you just aren't working hard enough.  So sorry.  Crybaby2

racedream,
Quote:Over the past few reporting periods, the vast majority of sales are from the OneBid Instant Purchase format, and that seems to be the popular trend moving forward.

For that reason, the bulk of WP selling activity is not via conventional bidding, but Instant Purchase.

We think that OneBid Instant Purchase may, in the future, make up as much as 95% or more of active items

Karen - WP Customer Care

Translation
This is ka/ray preparring store owners for the new fee increases. We can now start calling his site feeglepop before it becomes the waggleflop it is ment to be. You know it's that left hand right hand thing that conflicts inside his head.
Even better is the story about the baby bull and the daddy bull if you know what I mean. Ray lives by it. If you don't know the story contact me and I will tell it to you just not in the forum.

Duh, big big Duh Ray. Some genius  Puke
Every online seller from ebay to timbuktu knows the auction format is DOA, has been for some time, and is the #1 outcry across ebay about Meg's boneheaded decision to try and revive the core. There isn't enough CPR in the world to bring auctions back to life.

Leave it to Ray to spin his bs and make it sound like he is the only person to have figured this out. 
Ray I salute you with both hands. Thefinger that would be the left and the right.

To her highness and in defense of stardust,

quote by her highness
Quote:After I quit spamming eBay boards with WP hurrahs, I started lurking.. and learning. a lot.  by the way I apparently am stupid and misquoted that 3-year-goal should be 1-year-goal which WP has already surpassed.  No matter.  Regardless, I have begun to like lurking, but occasionally I'll jump in and surprise people.
FACT: Yes you are stupid the three year goal was reached by and for Ray by September. 1.5% get real his only goal is to put money in his pocket. Yes again your stupidity surprises me. Lurking is one thing but jumping in here on TT that is realy stupid, I am here now so let the truth be told. Yes your stupidity surprises me and I only wish you not to lose this great trait that you have it may work out well for you. Maybe if your stupidity stumbles you back here the truth will set you free.

Quote:I was around FAS the last time, but didn't have a chance to open up at WP before the site fell.  Now this impersonation of Karen that you speak of.. why and how would he do this and have time to do everything else and what makes you think it's him?

I'm asking seriously, because I want to know.

Name's Miranda, by the way...
I see stupidity can lead one to ask questions from time to time so let me help you control your stupidity by telling you why Ray has time for all those things.

Ray's cost each month
dedicated servers provided by BLUEHOST      $750.00
hosting fees                            same          $100.00       no more than
rent                                                            0.00       basement of his house
out of the box software                                  0.00       paid at startup
staff                                                           0.00       needs 1 pc

Did you think he needs all kinds of computers to do what he is doing NO! everything is done and handled by his hosting company in Washington state. Even I have more computers going than ray does. If he had employees you would not have to wait to implement the so called upgrades he talks about. Yes there are other fees he payes but they would be spread out over a year and they would be minor. One person can handle everything as it is now he has less than 1000 users in total.

quote by stardust
Quote:In a tiny defense of RR, the front page IS designed to attract sellers right now -- to get enough inventory to attract buyers in the near future.

It remains to be seen when he might change the front page to be buyer oriented -- if at all -- and markets the site somewhere other than the ebay stores board in the form of spam.

As a note:  He'll never go anywhere with this site if he continues to monitor and post on the boards in the name of *Karen*.

Well done with one major exception:
The front page is buyer oriented.
FACT: You are the buyer when you sell. The entire site is based on his pocket. As long as you are paying him $9.95 a month you are the buyer and seller. He brings you in with his blinding vision of a revolution. There is no revolution on WP just a bunch of sellers buying what Ray is selling and all that is is an idea!

Wagglepop Bites The Dust

How do you think your going to get along,
Without us, when we're gone
You took us for everything that we had,
And now were out on our own

Are you happy, are you satisfied
How long can you stand the heat
Out of the doorway the members split
Retreating to the sound of the beat
Chorus

:turkey2: :turkey2: :turkey2: :turkey2:
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust

There are plenty of ways you can hurt a man
And bring him to the ground
You can beat him
You can cheat him
You can treat him bad and leave him
When he's down

But were ready, yes were ready for you
We are standing on our own two feet
Out of the doorway the members split
Retreating to the sound of the beat

Truth, the Washington state connection is a result of the following
Quote:WAGGLEPOP.COMSQowLl@privacypost.com

He's using a privacy guard to protect his whois info which is why it's showing up as Washington instead of New York.  If you use GoDaddy's privacy guard your info would show as Arizona, etc.  This is one case where Ray is innocent.  WP's New York address is listed on WP, in the email he sent, and they are a NY LLC.
