JUST SAY "NO" TO JUDGEMENTAL IGNORANCE.

Obviously, you are not yet mature enough to realize what you have done and why people are offended.

So, take your toys and don't play in our sandbox anymore. We wear big girl panties here.

Quote:Why would I owe you an apology when what I posted had nothing whatsoever to do with you?

You don't owe me an apology and I never personally asked for one did I? Which makes the rest of your statement moot.

You owe it to all the legitimate past sellers of WP that you degraded with your comment. Many of them only read here as opposed to actively posting. Many of them don't but are still close friends or associates of other current sellers on WP. None of them will pat you on the back for stabbing theirs with your words.

Angel, I am quit of you. Congratulations! You will be the first poster to be flagged on my ignore list. Please consider returning the favour.

And while I'm composing this post I'd like to add. Are you aware that your IP address is logged every time you sign in to WPSSU?

BTW: you are far from humble but I will grant you this; you always have an opinion.

Over and out.

Quote:There is still freedom of speech in America.

This statement cracks me up coming from a WP seller, have you not read the policies on WP regarding posting on the forums and post removals? Apparently Raybil is above the constitution and freedom of speech, so as a member of WP your constitutional rights have been removed. Happy001

Quote:Post Removals

Regarding posts that are removed, an important distinction need be made between "freedom of speech" and editorial license.

"Freedom of speech" refers to the first amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America which states:

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

The U.S. Constitution is a wonderful and empowering thing. However, in the course of daily life it is too many times confused with the matter which we address now, namely editorial license.

PS is a hypocrite. I saw it from the start, but others here wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt. Thank you, PS, for showing everyone your truly colors as you have to me in the past. I would say something about this desire for approval from your divine leader, but I won't, since you find the word so offensive. Let's just say it walks like a duck.

I was nothing like your profile of the X-Popper. I had a store with hudreds of items. Paid my fee before it was due. Had steller feedback, as I do on other venues. The lies, B.S. and hypocricy is what caused my eventual demise as a seller there.

Stick up for your divine leader. You two deserve each other.

Quote:Some people say that Wagglepop had more sellers back in '06. The flip side of that coin is that all of the BEST are still here, and the 'average' Wagglepop seller/store now is much more solid and well stocked than ever before. IMHO.

Then you said here

Quote: I explained that there are certain sellers who stand out TO ME as exceptional, and most of them are still on WP. There is no offense intended to any former WP sellers. If I were a former WP seller, I would not expect anyone to refer to me as someone who stood out as one of the best. What anyone chooses to think is their choice though.

Powerseller you didn't explain that certain sellers stood out in your "humble opinion". You state ALL of the best are still on WP.
That statement does exclude all sellers who no longer conduct business on WP, including wake me up, and the other seller you mentioned.

BTW IMHO WP did have more sellers in 06. It appears from all of your posts that you feel you did absolutely nothing inappropriate.
Just remember this people have very long memories, and other people will remember what you stated.
You never hesitate or hold back letting everyone know when you feel wronged, and you give as good as you claim to get.

A better way to state it would have been " I realize that many of our wonderful sellers have left WP for a variety of reasons. There are still wonderful dedicated sellers who have remained, and I know that together we make a great team."

Do you see the difference. Respect for the former sellers, respect for the current sellers. You have much to learn and yet the very people who could have been great mentors to you are more than likely lost to you as a resource.

One thing that yanks my chain about PS (and yes, I know this is not a thread about her, but please indulge me), is that her success is not just as a result of her work BUT THE WORK OF MANY OTHER PREVIOUS SELLERS, such as myself and others here, WHO were GREAT WP sellers, worked our bunns off, helped build RAY'S BUSINESS for the remaining Poopers, and now she's insulting us for it. This is part of that "good riddin's to bad rubbish" attitude, as characteristic #20 of my list of cult attitudes, agendas and behaviors, as disclosed in a previous post.

Another thing that yanks my chain: Since when did PS set herself up as a self-appointed chairperson of the Academy of Sellers' Rating System? Show me your credentials PS! What criteria are you using to determine an "exceptional" seller? One who PAYS HIS/HER MONTHLY INVOICE, DOESN'T QUESTION, MAKES NO WAVES, WORKS LIKE A SELFLESS DRONE, PRAISES and BLINDLY FOLLOWS THE TEACHING OF HIS/HER LEADER , keeps his/her mouth shut, except outside the sandbox? Certainly not one smart enough to figure that he/she is being used by an egomaniac simply for the purpose of building HIS empire, and then thrown into the fire on a whim when he's done using him/her.

Here is my definition of THE BEST: A seller who is steadfastly honest, has integrity, offers good value, superior service, who goes the extra mile, who puts the customer first and treats all customers with equal respect. And while I will agree there are those sellers on WP, I would also have to say that nearly EVERY X-Popper I have come to know, ALSO fits this category, from what he/she says about business ethics. I would further like to add, that there are WP sellers who DO NOT fit this category. Several in particular (yes, they are still there) who refused to deal with a buyer they wrongly accused of being an "infiltrator" and "troll" and was later banned for asking questions on the WP forum. How do I know this person was a REAL buyer? Because I was an experienced enough seller to recognize a buyer when I see one, contacted him to ask how I could help, and sold him several high-end items to him.

Frankly, I couldn't give a rat's ass what kind of seller PS, any other seller, or the divine master of any venue considers me to be. What matters to me, is how my CUSTOMERS view me. Since she has never been a customer of mine, as far as I'm concerned, she has no business assessing my worth as a seller.
