I'd like to know what the cut off is for being a founding member... When does one qualify to be a founding member? Did you have to join before a certain date? Some people are gonna be piiiiissed!!!!!!

They will probably give it to everyone that opened a store last year and are still selling there.

When is Ray going to give them what they have asked for and really need? BTW when did Ray say he was rolling out his big marketing/advertising of the site? Isn't it getting close to his so called target date.

It's sorta like when that really ratty boss gives you a title instead of a raise.....I'd rather have some advertising or ANYTHING to bring ANY traffic.

Just my opinion.

Hey guys, that great group from the '60s called "Bud & the Petals" are frying tons of spam on PSU, and putting us all down, all because RiverRat said

It's like Beatlemania over there. That was a cult, too. They may get all defensive and offended by the word, but if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, looks like a duck, it's probably a duck. The hoidy-toidy duck may get all offended and prefer the classier word "canard", but it's still a duck.

Founding Member Icon

It seems there is no rhyme or reason to this new feature. If you were a member in 06' and are still active you are a founding member. It doesn't matter how many items you have listed, how many items you have sold or anything else. If you are an active member and were there prior to 07' you are a founding member.

I wonder how long it will take the founding members to realize that that is like being 6 years old, going to the doctor for a shot and leaving with a sticker? Everyone gets a sticker no matter how well you have done. Even stores with 1 item in them that say they are under construction are founding members. What a joke or maybe it is a Ray store.

That's they way I saw it too although I found a few stores from 06 that did not get the icon. I can vouch that one of these stores is the "now you see it, now you don't" ones that are empty but show up once in a while with a resurrected item.

Alskling, I had to laugh when the bud came back accusing us of being a cult. I prefer to consider myself a student of human aberrations. WP is a cyber bed of case studies. Smileyviolin

Hey guys (gals or whatever)...there's a new thread over at PSU regarding Wagglepop Google Ads that lead to eBay.

Interesting, ebay buys WagglePop Google Adwords

Of course a popper we all know and love, thinks eBay is doing it out of fear.

I think I remember reading SOMEWHERE in this thread that a popper had actually purchased those eBay/Google Ads.

I searched but couldn't find it. Did my brain just make this up or does anyone else remember the details?

chiquita · 01-10-2007, 01:22 AM,

River I just read that thread

She's probably seeing visits from eBay because someone has turned her in for something like referring buyers to her WP store to purchase instead of buying on eBay.

eBay visits my website all the time because we have a 'checkout' link in our auctions and our competitors turn us in thinking it's an illegal link. Fortuntately, I cleared it through eBay and made sure the landing page met their approval before I started putting in there. Smile
