MarketPlace Behaviour - Important, READ!

Comments like what you and others were making do not help the seller at all. Telling freelancers to lower their prices is just plain rude and it's wrong to tell people their work is rubbish in a sale thread. If someone is trying to sell their work what gives anyone the right to come a long and rubbish it? It seriously harms the sellers chance of a sale, you wouldn't like it if you were selling something and somebody came along and said "don't buy that it's crap" would you?

Aside from all that to put it simply the MarketPlace is not there for "C&C" if you want to help people by giving out some tips then by all means give out all the advice you have but just do it in the Gallery Showcase were people actually want help. Posting negative comments in the MarketPlace is uncalled for and completely unnecessary.

As for comments such as "I wish I had the money" and "good luck with your sale" while we don't encourage those comments and least they are not trying to deter someones chances of a sale or trying to run down the prices within the MP.

You can feel free to express your opinion but just do it in an appropriate place, try to be a bit more professional about this.

Like I said, we are all freelancers here and we all need to look out for each other - negative comments in our MarketPlace helps nobody. Also as I mentioned to you at the time if you were unhappy with your ban and want to discuss please feel free to PM me

Again, even you state in here, ITS NOT FOR C&C, but YOU LET IT HAPPEN?

Why let one thing go one, with not letting the other side of it happen aswell? If you cant say 'Hey man, this honestly isnt worth 200$, Why not try to lower it?" But you can say "I wish I had the money" or "good Job" how is that any different?

'Hey man, this honestly isnt worth 200$, Why not try to lower it?" - Is NOT trashing his thread! I dont see how it is! Its constructive critissizcm, if ANYTHING its helping him, becuase MOST people at TFL know what things are worth, and no one would pay 200$ for a halfa** job..

-If you arent going to allow people to give help out like how I SEE It is, then I wouldnt get in trobule if I posted in every single thread in the market place saying "Good luck and good job" ?


By no means Bazza do I want to start an arguement, I just REALLY see wrong in this.

Can't you see that's what he is trying to stop? It's the reason this thread was created, and the reason you were banned.

Do you honestly thing that saying "Hey man, this honestly isnt worth 200$, Why not try to lower it?" and "good job" are the same? By telling someone their design (or any other product) is worth less than they think, if anything, is just plan rude. Whereas saying "Good job" or "Good work" is a compliment, and will encourage them to create more of that product.

One statement is positive and one is negative. Negative comments aren't wanted in the marketplace.

Just because you don't think it's worth it, doesn't mean it isn't. After all, a product is only worth what someone is willing to pay. If you think the price is too high, then maybe it is for you, but there could be someone who would willingly pay the price.

That would be pointless and immature.

Thats all anyone else ever does, look at people with under 200 or so posts, the majority of the posts are like that, They spam the forum, even if they dont think so, why not I?

You are missing the point entirely there....

To save the arguing lets just leave it at this and say that rules are rules and these rules are here to benefit the MarketPlace. As long as everybody abides by these rules there will be no further problems

I really didn't want to start a debate about this or anything I just want to try and highlight some rules that are being ignored. Big Zee and the staff are currently working on a new measure to help better enforce these rules which you may well see happen over the next week or so, so in the meantime lets just all try and follow the rules - thats all I ask
