| Obviously broke the T&C's. Not sure how, but unless it was an accident this is the only reason that I can think of.

| I was offering someone to hand them out in exchange for money. It took me ages to write too. I'm a little annoyed, it would have been nice if someone pm'd me and told me why seeing as I've just joined too |

 as I said, you would have no proof that people had handed them out for you so you'd be paying in hope. plus, nothing stopping people scoring out your site and putting their own in. Like I say, do it yourself and you know it gets done correctly.

I don't want to thank you for your help as if I wasn't breaking T&Cs why should you delete it. Also if you'd read it properly the incentive was to hand them out as the full amount would only have been paid after I'd gained all my referrals. And finally don't tell me that I should do it myself. I'm perfectly at liberty to pay someone else to do it for me. Its called 'work' and to be honest I have a lot of stuff to be getting on with myself so for someone to help me would have been brilliant and completely worth the outlay. | |

| ok, tell you what. Make another thread like you did and I'll leave it. Then, you will get lots of PM's, probably from dishonest people who will take your payment via paypal, give you a false address and you'll lose money...go ahead. I really dont know what bit of "trying to protect you", you dont understand.

| Just post the thread again, as you now have permission. Give people the chance to take your money, some will. *Edit* Best to post it on DP as well, you'll get a HUGE response there, LOADS of people taking you up on it.

| The reason your thread was deleted is because of the possibility of this... 1. You arrange with someone on Exceem to pay them for handing out your business cards 2. They take the money and run 3. You get pissed off and start pestering the mods on Exceem over "their" dishonest member Sure you can say you wont pester the mods, and maybe you wouldn't but if you are allowed to post a "job advert" then others who will pester and blame Exceem's mods for that dishonest members behaviour will also want to post those kind of threads. And we don't want that now do we. Last edited by -null-; 22-01-11 at 07:01 PM.. |

If you gave me 1000 business cards to hand out and you needed 10 refs, I would never see any money, as you would be lucky to get 1 ref. | |
