[quote name='Monckyman' timestamp='1364150253' post='2022555'] Made a reply and the self censored it. Saves the mods the trouble after lasts nights deletion. Maybe I'm just getting a bit jaded with this whole forum, which seems to divide its attention between puerile threads about royal arses or pinos underpants and how they shape his tone. Now we have to pay for ads of any worth. Ok. Time for a rethink [/quote] If you didn't go through the payment gateway when you posted then the ad would have auto-deleted (unless it was priced under £50) Cheers ped

[quote name='leschirons' timestamp='1363903820' post='2019410'] Bidding will end at 10 pm Saturday night (your foreign UK time) and the winning bid can be paid to either Basschat or Ped via Paypal (or cheque if you know the address of the old lorry container that he lives in) [/quote] Actually we prefer the term 'steel house'

Oh and don't thank me, thank leschirons for his kind gesture

[quote name='jezzaboy' timestamp='1363898726' post='2019241'] That`s noble of you Ped. I used to deliver medical oxygen to the SSPCA dog home in Glasgow and they had/have a shocking number of staffie`s who have been mistreated and abandoned in their kennel`s. [/quote] Such lovely dogs, shame about most of the owners. I met a really nice old staffie in town the other day who simply refused to go for a 'walk' but only wants to go to town and visit the Post Office, Thomas Cook and the bank!!

Actually, I'll donate the money to a local doggie charity that looks after lovely staffie dogs

[quote name='grapevinebass' timestamp='1363812159' post='2018152'] Fair enough I thought, when I was looking to sell something. Basschat is good, and deserves my financial support. So, using PayPal I paid the annual subscription... Only for it to be reimbursed about half an hour later.... What is this about? Was I just too quick to pay money before you were ready? [/quote] Hi mate Can you PM me the details please, I'll check it out! Thanks ped

Bump Should be for about 2 hours first thing in the morning, before the average musician rises from the horizontal.

[quote name='The Dark Lord' timestamp='1363697766' post='2015968'] No offence taken. You're probably unaware that I own a string of computer service and security companies and hold Cisco architect level qualifications and a Microsoft mail MVP. I know what you say, but no. The breach didn't come from me. For security reasons, I delete all registration emails and have no trace of my site specific email system. It's not me. It's Basschat. I know what is very likely to have happened. One or more of the site admins (probably all of them) operate behind either no firewall or a poor one. If any of them surf naughty things on the same PC, then who knows who have all of email addresses by now. Just sayin..... [/quote] I like your assumption that we're all computer illiterate (perhaps I am, but still) Put any info you like to Hamster and we'll look into it, as you asked so nicely... Oh and make sure it's pitched to the right level

[quote name='The Dark Lord' timestamp='1363688136' post='2015721'] Well, it has to mine - and basschat is the [u]only[/u] place that knows that email - so it MUST have come from basschat somehow. [/quote] I don't know how spam works but I frequently have spam email directed at me from accounts I've used for various sites. I guess the spambots are good at guessing email addresses. Anyway we'll have a look into it.

I just looked in my spam email and have found the same message, but it's not gone to my registered BC email address.

[quote name='Sharkfinger' timestamp='1363442059' post='2012768'] Thanks for the reply. Thought it would be something along those lines. Makes sense. [/quote] No probs; we really wanted to have a 'free' option, so I guess things will evolve as we start saving some money to work on the site. Cheers ped

Hi Sharkfinger There were a few limitations to how we structured the pricing. Here are a few points: - Policing at different price points would be complicated (to ensure people don't under-value to circumvent (hard enough at the moment!)) - We thought that most people listing something negatively effected by the higher cost to asking price ration would probably have other gear to sell rather than sign up to just shift one pedal, for example, for the most part - Pricing is encouraging people to take advantage of the site by sticking around and listing other items (even non-bass gear) - Cost of having a % of asking price based system was prohibitive at the beginning We may well adjust this in the future, but after talking to the guys at Talkbass, who only have a $20 a year option, anything less than that becomes a rod for your own back in many ways as we'd have to check or possibly review each post to ensure listings are realistic. Oh and Kev, no, they will be hidden like the other forums.. think one of the mods was having a play

[quote name='mybass' timestamp='1363365505' post='2011937'] Not seen when they were posted, I'm not on here all the time! There still isn't anything posted under FAQs and Rules. I'm sure there will be others not aware of the situ as yet. [/quote] Don't worry, there's no difference unless you post something for sale. Yes pressing backspace will take you back a page in certain conditions as explained above. Cheers

Thanks, yes that's part of tomorrow's plan. Cheers

Cool, refunded - try now! Cheers (P.s, from tomorrow, only logged in users will be able to pay)

[quote name='Prime_BASS' timestamp='1363291119' post='2011225'] Just completed a subscription payment via my phone, without beinga member to paypal, while posting a new thread, after paying I had to re-trype my whole for sale thread again, then the subscription message came up again. I used a different email though, [email="[email protected]"][email protected][/email] [/quote] Hi, Yes you should always make sure you're logged in when paying, and probably best not to do it via a mobile for the time being. Want a refund? PM me if so, then try the post again from a computer. Cheers

[quote name='fumps' timestamp='1363273568' post='2010838'] Dumb question alert: Is there a clear "For Dummies" procedure for placing ads & paying subscription fee's I have an ad to place but are unsure if i pay first then place my add....how does it work I'm a little confuddled [/quote] Just go to post as normal and all will become clear

[quote name='Hamster' timestamp='1363215750' post='2010096'] It worked for me first time? - [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/202347-test-stuff/page__view__findpost__p__2010091"]http://basschat.co.u...ost__p__2010091[/url] [/quote] It's working for everyone as far as I know, so I'd like to hear what you did exactly Lozz as it may help us identify something - PM me!

Hi guys Cheers for the comments. A custom mobile theme is on our wish list. It'll be a big job so were glad the current one is ok for now. There are definitely a few things missing though so we've started talking about designing our own. I think we still have a few things to fix here first though

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1363213266' post='2010032'] Think this may have happened yesterday as well? I paid my £20, and the one ad I managed to post isn`t even there, and the next one I`ve tried to post, even though I`ve placed values in the title bar and price/trade value box, it keeps saying "Insert a price". [/quote] Hi mate That'll be something different - please PM me the details and I'll look into it. Does it work now? Everything is working this end so I'll try and get to the bottom of it for you. Cheers

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1363202032' post='2009786'] I`ve paid my £20, but posted an item for sale yesterday, and although it was shown on the front page, not only could I then not get into it, it doesn`t appear on the for sale listings either. Bah. [/quote] Hm that's strange, can you PM me more details and I'll check it out
