Generally there is no need to post a reply in a BST offer topic that you have PM’d the guy. Most people are automagically notified that they have a PM. In effect, it’s a “Free Bump”. On the subject of BST replies of offers etc, please refrain from doing so. Reply to the offer via a PM. It’s a courtesy to others.
Speaking of “Free Bumps”, let’s quit giving BST “Free Bumps”. You are not doing the general population any favors in doing so.
I understand that technology is magic but I believe you meant automatically
My opinion: I dislike when people do this as well. However if one believes there is misinformation in the bst, then it should be advertised in the bst as a reply until it is fixed or resolved.
imho nobody but the OP should be able to post in a BST thread. I’ve had guys post in my thread and then a week later PM me angry that I never responded to them. I never saw their post. I will never see their posts. The only thing I do in my BST threads is edit them to update, and reply to bump.
Yes, I agree on this, especially if someone knows the offer may not be as good as it sounds. However, this does not extend to comments or disagreements about pricing.
real rants are at least four paragraphs long, include SOME ALL CAPS AND !!!, and aren’t
preface with a disclaimer.
sad.
excellent points on the BST though, thank you sir.
I would also like to complain about people who dont read. No i wont change my prices, no i wont ship to the other side of the planet. I spelled it all out, just read it. Dont act like im the bad guy when i dont respond because you didnt read.
Another reason to never post on a BST would be getting a “unread post” hit when you click that, and its always just a bump. Ive made that mistake before.
