Since PP gifts aren't actually banned ...

You should be asking why your dealers do not participate on the forum,frankly. This is a much bigger issue i would think.

To earn your money they should be posting here,Josh and all (i know the Josh thing is coming).

After the dealers being banned at RWI when the 2nd forum owner (same as the first) became a dealer,all dealers became ghosts around the forums,that clown has since decided it was a mistake,though the memberships of the forums have suffered. I take no sides and the dealers that dont want to participate should go,all replaced with those that want to earn your money. The dealers use to be active daily,they should be today or replaced,why no interest,guys?...

Why is that not mentioned?....just nickel and dime stuff is the topic......

Funny enough, now that guy is no longer a dealer, and suddenly Josh and Andrew are no longer censored from being mentioned on that forum. Go figure.

I find it strange when rep forums become more focused on trade then information sharing. I hope they can find their way back.

All due respect, but the removal of the damn silly filter on mention of J&A can be credited to the new primary admin (trailboss) - it was his decision and his alone. D4M's retirement from rep sales is entirely unconnected.

I know the conspiracy theories are fun, but let's keep the tinfoilhattedness to a minimum, huh?

I agree with you that D4M's position as a dealer had little to do with that (given the fact you had to jump thru a few hoops just to find his stuff). He wasn't competition for any of the other dealers.

However I think the overall "vibe" around preferred dealers there went beyond a filter to remove Joshua/Andrew posts or any single admin act. I started there before finding RG and there was an overall strange focus on promoting certain sellers while almost "banning" you for mentioning others (or at least getting your posts utterly ignored). While here at RG the vast majority of the discussions are about exchanging information there it was(is?) too focus on dealers.

Again, I hope they find whatever is the place they feel is right for them.
