You have been banned for the following reason:
You do not qualify to give reviews, read all rules before posting

Date the ban will be lifted: 01-18-2012, 12:00 AM

User: -Jericho-

I read the stickies and nowhere that I found does it say not to leave a review of a service that I PAID FOR. I did not ask for a review copy and I simply left an honest review of the service like I try to do for all services I buy on any forum.

This was all that I saw about reviews:

I HAVE LESS THEN 100 POSTS GIVE ME A REVIEW COPY! - No one cares about what you think of their product and no one intends on buying based on your opinion. If we catch you spamming for review copies you will get a temporary ban.

So why was I banned? I have about 8 outstanding services that I purchased this week on WF. I switched a lot of my buying over to WF from BHW and BLF because the services have improved here. I don't have a lot of posts on WF because I didn't start buying anything from here till recently.

So what gives? Honest reviews are bannable offenses here?
 


A lot of shitbags start sales threads then proceed to create new accounts and give false reviews about their shitty services.
 
Ok but you can see my account has been around since 2010 with about 35 posts. I bought a bunch of services this week and posted on those threads that I bought a service. Now I have to deal with this bullshit ban for leaving 2 reviews on completely different sales threads for an offense I can't even find listed anywhere.

They should have at least talked to me first and told me that it's unacceptable. Instead I get an outright ban which makes it difficult now for me to talk to the service providers I have ordered from. The itrader system is just as easily gamed as someone writing fake reviews. And if they read my reviews they could tell that they weren't fake.
 
Looks like a simple mistake dude, I hope they un-ban you. I know Jericho and he's a really good dude!

I'm just glad they don't have scumbags for mods here like on BHW, that piece of shit Tonalliz at BHW can suck the black off my pole! Crusading Cunt bans me any chance she has...
 
From what I understand...
Review rules are there to stop review beggars and fake reviews. You have the right to give your feedback of the service or product that you have bought(Paying money) no matter what your post count or itrader is.
 
Thanks.



I missed that thread because it says providers in the title and isn't listed in the main BST section of stickies. I still think it's bullshit that they didn't even warn me about it.

No, that's for "reviewing" a product/service "without" paying for it. You have to read the whole thread in context.

Noone gets banned on WF for giving their opinion, Jon has made this quite clear a number of times (banning for Skype chats not included). You "paid" for a service and gave the seller feedback while also allowing other potential buyers the knowledge of your service experience.

You didn't have to leave it as you would if you got a "review" copy since you actually paid for the service. You did it because you care about the community.

I would leave out the "REVIEW" part at the top though, because it looks like you're leaving a review for a review copy of a product/service. That's probably where this miscommunication happened.

Since my post count is high enough on this account I PM'd the mod and pointed that out.

My reviews were unsolicited reviews. I did not get anything for it but I guess since I wrote REVIEW they just assumed and banned me for it.
