Hi everyone. I don't post here often... but I want to let you all know that I am a "lurker" per say.
I have been coming to this forum for a few weeks now, from Namepros (saw the advertisement banner)...
The first thing I want to say right now is... I liked this place because it was friendly had established members offering great advice on many topics, and there was never "bashing".
Tonight, reading this thread, I have noticed pretty much everything that I hate. Which include: Bashing, Negative comments, and absolutely no useful critique.
I don't really know Trigatch, but I can say that he has taken the time to create something for FREE. If you guys have a problem with him covering his costs by placing an ad 1 out of every 20 times it is displayed, then you obviously need the money more than him....and I pitty you.
1/20 means nothing to me, and I could wipe my ass with the amount he would generate per month using that method.
Now, I don't know jack diddly about Arbitrage, in fact, I have never used, experimented with, or even given two shits about "arbi" in my entire life. I even think its a unethical way of making money and hurts the overall PPC industry. Thats my opinion and nothing more.
But the way you all are bashing, and absolutely ripping Trigatch's thread to pieces makes me sick.
I looked at all these great photos and pictures of such a "established" group of people from the ASW conference....and I said to myself..."Wow, what a great bunch of people who have formed friendships from this site"...and now...I see this!?
Do you guys want this forum to stay small or do you want it to grow? Because the way you are acting toward this thread tells me you want it to stay small or even decrease in size. It's very discouraging to join a forum and have someone rip your thread to pieces with negativity.
I enjoy this forum, and the people, very very much. Yes, I lurk at times, which is why most of you have never even seen my name...but I'm here... reading... and discouraged by this thread.
I develop new things every day... whether it was coded by me or someone else, and I would love to share them with you guys. Even though it would hurt my bottom line income, I consider sharing some of my ideas with you guys. But just as I am warming up, I see a thread like this. Someone who put TIME and EFFORT into something and having it ripped to pieces.
So the moral of my post is to make you guys recognize what you are doing is not helping "Trigatch" one bit... its just making yourselves feel better by bashing and ripping his free tool that he created and spent time on, to pieces!
Step back, and take a look at the way you are acting...because as long as the WickedFire community has a negative attitude like this... I don't want to take part in it. I sure do hope you guys realize what I am seeing here.
Best Wishes,
