chevyman097 2,579 Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) Another point to be made. Remember that the Admin, mods, and business members here all have jobs and stuff in real life. (imagine that) They are not here as much as many of the members on a regular basis, so they dont see as much as others. If you try contacting Mack, as suggest by the mod, it will probably produce more results than criticising the mods. The mods are here to keep us heathens in line not investigate the practices of the business members. In other words just because this thread is here, does not mean Makc will know about it. If you all start contacting him instead of just saying "hey the dang admins and mods should not allow this crap" it might produce better results. The Saiga forums are provided to us but that does not mean the owner is in the house with us. BTW. Ty guys for an awesome forum.

I will keep quiet from now on becuase of your great advice and the tactful way in which you communicated it. Have you done a recent search for GoGun or E-tac? Try it. Outside of my recent posts about bad experiences you will find these threads... I did my research using this forum. it is my fault. I am just trying to help facilitate this forum keeping its partners and funders accountable for their actions when it is brought to their attention. I still feel this is not too much to ask.

Koliadko 207 Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 One thing I've never understood is when people go onto a forum and think it's a good idea to argue with the Mods. I haven't found that to be the case on any forum I've been on. Yet you're still here. Seems like they are quite lenient here. We all understand your frustration but it is NOT the Mods fault that you don't have your gun. You claim your money was stolen. Well, I would assume then that you have filed a report with the police? No? Maybe you may want to reword that. I have heard a lot of negative about them but it's really only been about customer service, not quality of work. Most on here said they knew going in that it would take time to get their gun back but went in willingly. I'm really not sure why you didn't know this when many others did. It isn't a secret. There is NO WAY I would have spent that kind of money without doing some SERIOUS research which you obviously didn't do. I wish someone could snap their fingers and make everyone happy but that ain't gonna happen. Even if Max booted ETAC right now, you'd still be out so why not lay off the Mods and maybe contact the ONE person that can do something about their membership AND stay on the one that can give you your gun back?

ekbearly 6 Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 The mods went after others who responded to my thread about an issue with Etac. I just did what I was supposed to do... report the issue. I did not ask mods to come in and begin to defend their right to have Etac pay them for marketing. They did that on their own after others brought up the issue. Just because we are not mods does not mean we can't have an opinion on how the forum is run. The forum can ignore us, but we can still share it. Several of us share an opinion that the forum should kick Etac off. We were discussing this among ourselves when the mod came in and started to defend not kicking them off. They are entitled to their opinion as well. However, we can't be faulted for having a point of view. I hope the forum does what is right. I apologize if I did not communicate this in a proper way. However, I don't think the moderator treated the first posters in a friendly way right from the start. That helped set a negative tone. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Koliadko 207 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Because this forum allows business members to delete negative comments from their section, We "allow it?"... please.. It's THEIR SECTION! NOT OURS! they paid for it... This is why we have a feedback section.. as you see the thread has been untouched by staff. (I suppose we are manipulating or conspiring SOMEHOW... after all, it's the internet!!!) It's like saying applebees can't remove a sign that says applebees sucks on their own property. Haters gonna hate... The mods went after others who responded to my thread about an issue with Etac. I just did what I was supposed to do... report the issue.

NOTHING about defending ETAC. Just for the record, I gave you a '-' since that's what you did with me for voicing my opinion. Not in the habit of using that button but am willing to make an exception..... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ekbearly 6 Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 (edited) Outsiders don't stand a chance in this tight knit "friendly" community. Before I ever jumped in this is how the mod reacted: 1) if you did not know or "deceived" by the appearance, then you obviously did not read the rules when you signed on... period.2) you CAN discuss negatives. this thread is proof. you just can't do it in the paid for vendor section... 3) again, it is the way it is... Don't like it.. appeal to Admin.. Mods don't make rules, we simply enforce them. ETA: I could care less how it works on the "rest" of the internet. I do appologise that you are a bit slow on the uptake as far as your understanding or about your "opinion" on how the forum is structured. You would make an AWESOME anti gunner! it's the guns fault.. not the shooter! or it's the forum's fault, not the vendor..... again, Caveat Emptor. If you give ANYOBODY money without knowing what you are getting into, YOU are the idiot... I was not used to having a moderator call someone an idiot without knowing the whole story. I am also not used to a moderator saying things like "You would make an AWESOME anti gunner!" I found this quite insulting even though it wasn't directed at me. That is why I jumped in. My opinion is that this forum has a poor business practice by allowing Etac to market and receiving money in return. That opinion is not directed at the mods. It is directed at the forum. I am posting it in this forum for admin to see if he cares. Mods need not take notice. Ban the dissenters... in a thread you need not visit and could just ignore... interesting take.

raleighsaiga 81 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 I was planning to be done with participating in this thread, but I have to rein in one thing here. I have no idea who you think bluebear is. He might be a previously banned member or a member with another active account who people don't like around here. I have no idea. I do know for a fact that at least under the "bluebear" account, he has been entirely truthful about his E-TAC experience. I have this straight from Craig, who I've kept in touch with regarding his efforts to start his own conversion business. So, I don't know what you mean when you suggest he might be a "shill," but everything bluebear has said in all of his posts has been confirmed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
