Default TRF Vendor Section?

Some food for thought, I was gazing at the vendor section at TRF the most current post is Sept 21st. Looks like they did a fine job chasing vendors away.

I'm grateful Scott doesn't run this site the way TRF is. Especially the vendor's area.

Wonder how it felt for those that paid to get all the perks with the views?

They banned a lot of us over there for not paying the extortion money. Too bad they didn't understand they need us more than we need them.

I just looked, it seems TRF is doing fine with smaller vendor participation. I can't speak for others but I'm doing fine without TRF. Complaining isn't going to change anything as far as I know so maybe it's time to move on.

Not a complaint, an observation. Ive had several vendors ask about pay to play over there. I told them its a waste of money.

Absolutely LOVE seeing that POS site go down the crapper where it belongs.

Yep... I figured that out a long time ago. I didn't like their high-handedness, especially from the "new owners" so I quit there a long time ago, and never looked back.

Without good participation and good information, a forum is basically just a debate society. When they started treating their contributors as beneath contempt, and their contributions as "theirs to do with as they please", it was just the straw that broke the camel's back IMHO... I was on there one day dealing with the same old same old crap that's been the hallmark of that POS forum for OVER A DECADE, and this latest crap from the new owners was just the new cherry on top of the crap sundae, so I just finally had enough and split and never looked back. Good riddance.

I guess if you like word association games and other such nonsense, the Terribly Run Forum is a great place.

Later! OL J R
