Would be better placing in Exchange & Mart section. Then you don't get hammered by SPAM ratings Wink Embarassed Rolling Eyes

Blatent advertising is not something that goes down well.

Idea Now if you were to put something simple in your sig, and then post constructive answers etc in threads it would be far better than simply just joining up and posting a add such as you have Karma

Rule Number One

Quote:
Thou Shalt Not Spam
Non bike related adverts are not welcome here. However if you have a topical product or service you are welcome to advertise it in the Exchange & Mart section or a special interests section (Supermoto, Racing, etc). Please note, however, that this is a priviledge and posting repeatedly or trying to 'hard sell' your ad may begin to draw flak from other forum users.

A1: my bloke has a similar small business, he transports all kinds of stuff round the place, both here and across Europe/Scandinavia ... including MANY bikes, as he has over 30 years experience of riding and handling bikes.

(last week I helped him cart one of those mad Italian three wheeler flatbed things to Stoke on Trent, it was very cute) - so I do know just how hard you probably work, and the frustrations involved.

BUT ...


... as now kindly pointed out above by Ariel, one of the rules of this particular forum is NO SPAM. And people come down very hard on those who do.

So if you joined as a viable member, cos you love bikes, and you eventually got round to pointing out that your job was exactly what you say it is, then it would be easier for people to accept. But as it turns out, you've just jumped right in with both feet into probably a hornets nest, cos its unlikely people will give you the benefit of the doubt now.

Good luck in your business.
I know just how VERY difficult it can be.

Yeah but its not seen like that here, LOL

You got to ease your way in like a greased dildo in this place, else you'll be bent over and have the spam inserted in your bottom very painfully.

We all network, but there is a difference between chatting about bikes (or indeed anything, cos we fair do chat some proper old shit in this forum at times) and just diving right in with an ad for your company, I'm surprised other forums haven't had a go as well, although this one in particular is pretty hot on it - your first and only post being blatantly nothing but advertising for your company.

Possibly, REALLY, we'd like to see what sort of bikes you have, or are interested in, cos we're more interested in you as a biker than as a bike transporter. Yeah, its a useful thing to know who transports bikes, and there are certainly occasional queries about that, even on this forum. But this is a very social forum which detests spammers.

As a side issue, you need to separate the email address from the website address in your signature, as they are both currently linked into one long mess. Put a space in between the dash separating the email and the website address.

Ease your way in?? You signed up with a username specifically for advertising your services, and spammed 2 different boards straight away.

That isn't easing yourself in, that's the forum equivalent of blowing up the doors with C4, running in and shouting at everyone.

Easing yourself in would be signing up as "bob" or whatever, getting to know everyone then checking with the mods if it would be okay to post an ad (preferably with a discount for BCF members).

[edit]

Also the link in your signature is broken and your website is shite.

His website is okay for what he does.

He has a business to run, he's busy driving and running round after prats who are wondering where their bikes are, even though they only want to pay the cheapest price possible ... he probably hasn't got time to learn how to put up some fancy website.

That's why web designers exist Smile takes two seconds to hire one. If you can't produce a decent website, why bother having one?

alternatively: grab a template from www.oswd.org and fill in the bits. It's free and the templates are styled to work in both firefox and ie they're also easy to customize so you don't get that "i built my site using a shite sitebuilder straight from geocities/homestead look".

at least the guy is trying to make a living with something he and we have an interest in, opposed to sucking the country dry Confused

I'm sure his service would be useful to a lot of 'biker' members on the forum ...Anyway, best of luck with your business mate, might get some better results elsewhere as there's a high percentage of members here that don't even own a bike Rolling Eyes

It's bike related. It's in the right area. I don't see the problem. It's not like he's selling trainers or push bikes. Karma

I`ve got no problem with you earning a living from bikes.
However it would of been nice if you had of contributed something to the forum before you started trying to make money out of us!

You gotta put stuff in the correct places mate. Theres a reason your posts are automatically hidden now, its because people don't like plugging. Its like the other guy said, put it in the Mart section. I'm sure you do great business, but people dont like having their forum cluttered with advertising!

lol ste, perfect response.

its ok just stick it in the correct section next time. the reason we have very little spam on here is because it is dealt with immediatly bythe community. dont take it so personally just do the right thing and put it in exchange and mart section, then apologize for your error, move on with life...

any dude i do wish you good luck in your business sincerely, its a tough world to be in that game, all the best. Thumbs Up

If you join a forum and haven't read the rules, but break one, you apologise after being told and then obey the rules.

Arguing that they are stupid rules and other places dont have those rules, will not win you friends or business.

All spammers are just hardworking folk trying to generate business. I say this having been a human spammer doing cold calling telesales.

We have a section on this forum where you post if you want to get money from people. This is not it.

He's right though that I'm helping by bumping up this thread. Can't help myself.
