New members???? - adidasanth - 09-08-07
perhaps I am opening up a can of trefoil striped worms but here goes!
Are a few of the new members we have on here (not all, but some) just coming on here to sell their wares?
I am a bit angry at this sudden 'fashion'.
1. yes, i like it that we have new people, the more the goddam merrier
2. no i aint an elitist, ask about, i drop knowledge like you all do
3. i constantly search ebay for stuff for people that want to buy and ask if its available on here (camnic1972 will tell you that)
4. yes i sold my lace tags on here
but if thats all you want from here, piss off to gumtree or ebay and let us get on with building a SS community and continuing to make new contacts and people that i class as good, open, genuine souls!
twice in as many days i have been 'questioned' about my ability to spot genuine kicks when enquiring about sales. fuck me, if i didnt know about kicks i would have wardrobe full of puma, kswiss and lacoste!
rant over!

I haven't really thought about this yet. And I'm not going to either as I think it's not really for us "regular users" to decide. Olstar and the crew may do these thoughts, but I don't want to rule in here. I will give where I can, but I don't want to be in charge and take credit for and change something I didn't create. If you get what I mean.

I'm getting more than a bit hacked off with bad manners from people bowling in here and trying to sell or asking questions without even introducing themselves.
I'm also not overly happy with the growth of posting and selling of non superstar trainers in the for sale section.
THIS IS PRIMARILY A SUPERSTAR FORUM !
If you're only interested in talking about or selling other types of trainers than kindly funk off !

The first point i agree with. Me personally, till they inroduce themselves and post enough times over x amount of time, i won't help them.
The second point, i can see y, especially as this is not tradekey or ec21, but a specialist forum. however, as long as the sale section isn't flooded wid non superstars i.e. 3 supes for sale but 70 reebok classics also for sale then im cool wid seeing non soops for sale. however, im also not a moderator or part of ssdb po-leece, so im not gonna tell them wot they can/can't do. also, whilst i like superstars, im not a die hard fan. which brings me onto my final point. I do agree wid da fact that this is a superstar forum and i do like em, otherwise i wouldn't be here. but we have threads and other parts of the forum where we can 'mention' non superstar models. although these shoudn't dominate da forum.
Discuss.

Mr P and Anth - I totally agree with you both!!!
Sup the Supes!!!!!
lol

RE: New members???? - mr.pure - 09-08-07
You're right Camden, don't expect it to be entirely superstars as there is a place for non Superstar or non Adidas related chatter but a lot of it has been migrating into the General chat thread which is actually meant to be Superstar based if anything to do with trainers.
RE: New members???? - adidasanth - 09-08-07
my point was also that I hated the fact that people were trying to sell stuff to us and then when i (shock horror) ask for classification on authenticity they get arsey!
well excuse me, take your kicks, go to the chemist and buy some lubricant and shove them up your arse.
ebay is that way SPHINCTER POLICE ENTER HERE

RE: New members???? - streak - 09-08-07
Times Change??? you've only been on the forum for 3 months...
RE: New members???? - Da Camden Ayatollah - 09-08-07
Is that it? well i only speak from wot i see and hear. OK, I can't hear a forum but u get the idea. 3 months? feels longer.
