    What I love about 'final words' is that they never are.
    Grim and ebf like this.
    Which is worse, ignorance or apathy...I don't know and don't care.

    Not while women exist, I’m sorry.

    Spanners you are such a cock. This is so typical of your attitude.

    Making friends and winning customers the "Spanners" way, nice one...

    Bet you this thread disappears into the same black hole that the forum lapping kit did once you've realised your'e behaving like a chop.

    Can you guys post up a copy from your "sent" folders and the email you were sending to please.

    As Spanners has said everything is automated so we have a problem with the system somewhere, the fault could be anywhere.

    It would have been more helpful to approach people a bit earlier rather than wait 6 months before complaining.

    I was waiting for you to open your mouth and dribble.. Didn't take long

    Are you looking for an excuse to have a go, or do you ignore the above and want to start a conspiracy that I have engineered the results and am lying about the whole issue?

    We require 0 - zip - no advertising to survive.. And complaining about something not existing for 6 months, 2 mins after it all expires is simply a crazy coincidence in which I've spent time trying to coverup by changing generated logs or nothing more then a pot shot.

    These are the dates I sent private messages to the mods regarding my advert that was up but I wasn't billed for, a few emails were also sent but I cant be bothered going through hundreds of emails 6+ months ago to try and find them.

    20.03.13 Spanners (with no reply)
    24.04.13 Distant Stalker
    24.04.13 Tussock
    17.05.13 Tussock
    01.08.13 Tussock
    Got no where so I gave up, until my advert was pulled a few weeks ago.

    All of them requesting a bill, im happy to copy and paste what was said in those privet messages if required?

    Thanks

    Things must be slow on the high seas if you were waiting for that...

    Was about your "special" people skills and the prudence of dealing with commercial customers in such a public way, but everybody loves a good conspiracy, so let's go with that

    Just calling a spade a spade, or should that be a spanner a shifty ?

    I am just so surprised that the gummy-mint hasn't snapped this guy up for his diplomacy and tactful ways to use in bargaining with trade agreements...I am pleased that this forum can spin along without any advertising...but am curious as to what does finance it.

    @R93 and @Gibo are male hookers but they don't care about the money as they enjoy the ride so the money is donated to the forum

    Thanks guys!

    My issue isn't with the lack of past banner, my issue is ensuring we can have a future banner and a contact for the next advertising round. We have a lot of announcements we will be making about the products we will be representing in NZ. Before paying we wanted to see this tidied up.

    Email sent 22/1/2014:
    What is the banner size? We will put something together.
    Thanks

    Image size for banner please.

    We got no response so we started a thread:
    http://www.nzhuntingandshooting.co.nz/f30/admin-12361/

    This got a few responses so we PMed a couple of the moderators. I wont post their PM's they can forward them for you.

    Then this thread starts pointing out the obvious.

    At the end of the day its a consistent problem with advertisers - not just us. If you dont need funds, dont have advertisers. We have bailed - this forum misses out on the brands and info we will announce over on the other two forums.

    When we get a public apology from spanners we will consider advertising here again.
