Poll: Who is to blame for sellers leaving Wagglepop en masse?

UniqueSeller · 04-18-2007, 12:44 PM,

Well, at least we are giving them something "positive" to talk about instead of declining/no sales ....

As the daughter of a retired airline captain, I would concur.

Hey DB I am also the daughter of a retired airline captain! My dad flew for American. He hates that he is retired. He did not fly the 767 though he flew the DC-10.

Mine was with United. Was a Navy fighter pilot in the Pacific during WWII and Korea. Retired with the 727, which he prefered over anything Douglas ever made.

Know-it-all? I guess that explains why he's so trigger happy with the delete button. He wants to make sure his know-it-all reputation remains intact and Poppers know nothing. Ignorance is bliss.

Oh, really. There's a fine line between bravery and stupidity. I suppose that 70% of his soldiers deserting him and leaving the battlefield is testiment to his courage and leadership qualities.

Here, you go. Time for your IV Smileykoolaid

Edit: In the world of psychology there's a name for people who do the same thing over and over again and expect a different result -- INSANE.

Now here's a popper that's had way way too much Koolaid:

Quote:Ray could be a stuffed know-it-all blow-hard for all I care (ohmygosh, the stuff thats written about him!), but I respect him to the moon and back for having a belief and passion and not letting the first big fall get him down... don't know if I coulda done what he did, but this is the type of person who succeeds against all odds and I am BLOWN AWAY by his stand. He's got what it takes in the chutzpah area, and historically, that is more important than having $$ or glitz or advanced degrees.

[/quote]

I used to respect him for having the guts to try again after the first big fall, too.

Succeeds against all odds? All he has succeeded in doing is getting sellers to do all his work for them and charging them $9.95 a month for the "honor" of building a site that 70% of the membership has given up on. But, you have to hand it to him, getting sellers to part with their hard-earned money and sitting back while they do the work is quite a success story.

It was posted within that last half hour or so.

It's a common affliction. Picture hand up admitting to the same. I've even progressed to answering myself!! And you? :blinkie:

If you decide to, you should take a look at the ZenCarts. They have a specific mod (add-on) just for Book Sellers. I haven't personally used it, but I've seen some posts on the Zen forums and others seem to really like it. Toothy9
