Title: Definately Not Rad!!
Post by: Retrodan72 on May 07, 2013, 11:20 AM
I'm not going to clog up the messers thread, as there is too much of that already, and technically the Rad member i'm annoyed with isn't - as far as i know, a messer? :-\

This is just a little rant to see if you guys agree with me? ???

Back in Feb, Rob Pickle put a wanted thread up asking for some black bubble font A'me's? I replied in the thread saying that Rob could have the orphan one I had lying about and he could wait for another to show up - to which Rob kindly refused - no problem there. :coolsmiley:

Then I got a pm from another member, who I will not name, asking if they could have the orphan grip? 'Sure' I said, i'm happy to help out another member, espesially with bits I have no use for.

So, this member tels me that he's in another country, and also that he's noticed my wanted thread looking for some Kuwie Laser decals. He says he will send me a few decasl that i'm after in return for the grip. Sounds fair enough to me IMO.

So the grip gets sent first class to the other country, I stood the postage costs - they weren't that much, but the other memeber hasn't sent the decals. In fact I haven't even had a thanks for the grip. :(

What's naffing me off is that he's not even replying to pm's, and I know that he's been active on here.

Do you agrre that this isn't very sporting between members?? :-\

sometimes real life gets in the way of stuff.

not an excuse and doesnt make it acceptable, but shit happens.

pm them again, asking for a response.

if you dont get one, wipe yer mouth.

name and shame if you feel the need, but give the person a chance to explain themselves.

stuff isnt always how it seems.

Agreed, I'm hoping he sees this and it prompts him to step up. :daumenhoch:

In the man's defence Dan, sometimes I have taken a few weeks to respond to PM's due a heavy life load mate  :-[

Sometimes, our best intentions of replying get overlooked by something in our life at that moment and then we tend to forget  ???

Or is that just me....what's the thread about again  :crazy2:

Problem here Terry seem's to be it's been two months not weeks .

Everyone has a life away from this site but no response in two months ain't good  especially when Dan had done the member a good turn in the first place :(

I wouldn't mind Joff, but he offered me the trade on the decals, I could have just got them off Del.  ::)

I was just after the small bar and seat post decals, but I'm in no rush now, wanted them for Wini's ride. :(

The foreign member has pm'd me today, saying the decals were posted, must be lost in the post and he conveniently had no tracking number, also claims to have over looked my pm. ::)

I have been known to be occasionally impatient waiting for a reply to my pm's to people

I usually want a reply within 2 to 3  seconds of me sending my message out , depending on the subject,, that's ample time in my book  ::)

I can fill someone''s entire inbox with pm's about buying an item in under a  minute  :D


Apparently this is me   ::)

Has the person been posting on here since the time that he should have got the grip in the post ? and have you pm'd him to see if he received the grip ?

Yeah, he's pm'd me saying the decals must have got lost in the post. Im not bothered now, it's a learning process about sifting out the good from the bad members on Rad. :daumenhoch:
