I have to be honest, I had no intention of ever posting here again, but I was looking here a few days ago about a q I had with my foxpro, and something else cought my eye. I see there is this new ecaller out that is "the best thing since sliced bread" through a lot of posts that I saw of the manufacterer. My question is this, has pm changed its regulations on posting here and trying to sell a commercial product, because I just checked the list of advertisers and they were not on it. I know Wayne was yelled at for doing the same thing, but he had plans of becoming an advertiser and he did. I dont see that it is fair to pick and choose who has to pay and who dosent. If they are going to say things of other callers, put their money where their mouth is.
 
CB, I dont think it's any of your Damn business. Let the Mods. do their job. If your only going to come back to stir the pot, then just stay gone.

I'll have to second what Crapshoot said. Coyotebuster, do you have access to the moderators forum? Do you know what they are discussing in there? Has it occoured to you that the admins may be in the midst of discussions on this? Do you feel you are somehow entitled to a complete dissertation on what actions the admins take on every issue?

The admins here are very dilligent at pulling commercial plugs from posts. If the post wasn't pulled/edited for commercial content, there is problably a reason for it.

If you don't like the post/thread, don't read it.
 
Thanks for the kind words boys. No I dont have access to what they are reading or talking about, but I do know it seems like the rules are enforced when they feel like it around here sometimes. I just thought Id voice my opinion again, and they ovbiusly didnt care cause some of the posts were several weeks old. I just dont think him hawking his product over the fp and other callers is fair until he pays to be better. He reminds me of soemone, but who....... :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
 
Man, that is hilarious, that's the funniest thing I've seen all week! Thanks for the laugh CB, even if it cost you having to go back on your word, it gave me a good laugh!

You must have a pretty shallow life if that is the case. I have not been here since I left, I had an issue with my fp that I needed to see if I could find the solution too, and even though I said I would not post, I knew would probably find the answer here, and yes I did in time. But, in the meantime I had to read all about this new wonder toy that is ovbiusley givin special privileges or TOTALLY eclipse by something as the mods must not have noticed. I heard the little catch phrase no less than 15 times, and how he flaims callers that are avaiualable and one that is more thaa likely a better product. Wayne has to pay for these privaleges, and this guy is allowed to say what he wants to without paying, sounds like dirty pool to me. I hope this helped clear up your good laugh for you scattergunner, but in the meantime Ive taken to laughing at you for totally missing the point and being ignorant of the fact at hand.
 
It sure seems funny to me that there is all this fervor over which guys "Smoke and Mirrors" is better!?!

Can I buy a Loudmouth???

Can I buy a The Predation???

NOPE!!!

Would either of these guys be glad to put the money in their own bank account and earn interest off of it while I wait around???

It appears as if they would, and may even have already done so (with some other guys money and/or valuables)...

My advise to you CoyoteBuster is if you have questions/problems with your Foxpro, that you contact Foxpro, or just come out and ask your questions...

Atacking the way this board is run because it seems undemocratic is non-productive, and your question about this seemed unfairness should have gone through private official channels... did you e-mail Stretch at Sales? Did you try to contact R.Buker or Mike Paul by e-mail either?

I am sure that any of these gentlemen would have explained the position of this private business to you, though they don't owe any of us an explaination about squat!

Welcome back... do you kick in the door when you are a guest at other people's house and complain about the heater setting??? Or do you just throw a chair through the front window so you can cool off?
Would you then be upset because you were treated as less than welcome there?

That is a lot like what's going on here... if the muckety muks here wanna let someone get in free plugs of their products and not other dudes what business is it of ours?
The rates for advertising here are truly reasonable... I know, I have actually looked into it. I don't have any "click-through" stats but I do know that the money for an ad would be well spent here if you have an actual product to sell, many months of advertising a product that does not exist would not be good business sense.
This does leave some gaping holes in policy around here... but nobody ever said life, and especially the internet, was fair.

Lighten up dudes, one and all,

Jeff

Well, at least now we know where the "scatter" part came from.
scattergunner, coyotebuster has asked a simple question. I can't see anything in your response that is helpful to coyotebuster in answering this question or to anyone else on Predator Masters. Therefore, I'd kindly suggest that YOU mind your own business. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

As for the rest of you, I think you've made extremely poor showings by ganging up on coyotebuster. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
Coyotebuster,
If you go in to Advertisers forum and click on the thread entitled "Quick links to Predatormasters", you will see Loudmouth calls listed there. They really are paying for their privilege to advertise here.
Good hunting,
Rich
 
Jean Henri, I see you have decided to once again grace us with your opinion. Another of your helpful responses? Seems the only thing you add to this site is a shot at someone. Time to get off the couch and take a shot at something outside. This is getting old.
If someone comes in here with a bad attitude, there is probably someone here that's had enough and will adjust said bad attitude. If you whine, don't be surprised when someone treats you accordingly.

Mr. Cronk, go back and read cb's 1st post in this thread. He states he IS AWARE that loudmouth is a paid advertiser. I believe he's asking why the Predatation call ISN'T on the paid advertisers list. As has been pointed out by several others in this thread, it's none of my damn business, but ya know what, it's got me wondering also? AWWWW hell forget it, LOL, it ain't costing me a dime so I reckon it don't matter. But if ya wouldn't mind to much I've put together some neat little e-caller and would like to give em a plug or two. What ya say?
 
Doggin coyotes,
You are right as rain sir, my bad! Sorry coyotebuster. I am thinking that the Predation is being advertised by another vendor who is also a paid advertiser. I will check in to it and get back to you fellows though. Doggin, you actually can tell us a little bit about your caller here. You just have to be careful to not be too commercial about it, like posting a link to your site where you sell em, give prices here, openly advertise it for sale or anything like that. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
Actually, Redfrog, I felt as if I was coming to the aid of a fellow Predator Masters member who was being unfairly set upon. As Mr. Cronk points out, coyotebuster did indeed have a legitimate question.

Mr. Cronk is the only one who actually made a contribution toward answering coyotebuster's question.
 
Jean-Henri,

You apparently fancy yourself some self-appointed arbitrator or watchdog for what you see as an attack versus a legitimate question. At least when it suits you to do so... Or, if your not too busy taking pot shots and personal attacks of your own against those on the board that disagree with you. Let me see if I can expand your mind a bit:

This is an attack.

Well, at least now we know where the "scatter" part came from.

It's personal, non-topical, directed not at what I posted, but rather at me as an individual.

Now granted, some of the things I said about CB were a little harsh. I'd been mulling this over for some time. I had come in here this morning with the purpose in mind of deleting or at least editing my post, as I believe I was initially too harsh on the kid and probably violated the TOS by "attacking" another member.

This was my design before ever reading your rather inflamatory little ramblings.

If you think CB just asked "a simple question," your oblivious to the facts of what has been going on at this site over the past several months. I for one grew sick and tired of all the malicious crap that was posted on here. Some people apparently thought, and you may be one of them, that they had a right to tell the mods how to do their jobs. Fact is, the only right anyone who posts here has IS deciding whether or not to post here. If anyone doesn't like PM or the way it's run, they can leave. Which some did, some were also shown the door (it appears as such as certain once prolific trouble makers are now no where to be seen on the boards). Some also stormed away mad, vowing never to return. At least one individual apparently didn't really mean that, because he's now back. And apparently just to complain.

Sorry if I hurt yours or CB's feelings. I tend to call them as I see them. And what I see is that you are the LAST PERSON ON THIS BOARD that should be lecturing me about attacking or "ganging up on" anyone. I also see that I should have restrained myself a bit and not posted about what I saw as nothing more than prolonged beeyatching and moaning, hypocritical, and over-all contrary to the mission of this board.

If you want to talk about staying out of other people's buisness, as you define it, perhaps then you could pass on your suggestion to CB. If the folks at FP or Loudmouth have a problem with the Predation folk's posting their ramblings (which did nothing more than turn me off to the Predation, if you want to know) and catch phrases, than they should take care of it. Not CB, not the general body of this board, just those involved. That is, after all, none of our buisness.

I've said my piece about this overly dramatized topic.

Edit: spelling and clarification
 
So many words about next to nothing!

I am very sorry you are so sensitive. It is surprising, noting your nature on this board, but I've been surprised before.

I'm not sure you have my history correctly. You seem to be attributing more to my credit than is warranted.
 
The general tone of this thread has an uncomfortable but regretfully familiar taste to it.

CoyoteBuster - Welcome back - I think. Your initial question was full of old and tiring accusations directed at the relative fairness of the way this board is handled by board administration. Rich had diffculty finding answers because this subject was handled a very long time ago and the agreement was a relatively long distant memory. This should not be your concern, but as soon as the post in question hit the board we worked out a round about agreement to allow the posts to stay because this produce is handled thru a paying advertiser. This might not seem to be a fair agreement to you, but an agreement was reached that seemed fair to PM's administration.

CB, Please feel free not to worry about the small business matters associated with running this board, simply jump in and enjoy the board for what it actually is. The administration will do its best to keep it financialy alive.

Jean-Henri - Some folks seem to be able to post long wordy posts and almost never draw much fire from anybody. Others use very few words and almost constantly draw fire. Unfortunately your writing style draws fire like flies to a barn. I don't know, maybe its not what you post but when you post. You seem to be sort of drawn to controversy. You might try posting when there isn't a fire already smoldering, maybe some good smooth advice about some positive subject matter. Try focusing your posts toward the subject matter at hand and not at the individual posters. I don't know, but maybe this would help smooth some ruffled feathers. That is if you have any intention of smoothing feathers. I've noticed that petting a cat backwards always has an effect on the cats personality, a rather predictable negative effect now wouldn't you agree?
