Multiple Threads for the Same Business

[Plznate]

Heres what my solution will be, if the claim is being made that individual sales threads are necessary for all those reasons, then that is fine, however in order to not gain an improper advantage over other members who are not part of a company then no other RSU members may be bumping each others threads. Sound reasonable?

Some of us still share threads, so we would still have to be able to bump the thread in that case. The only separate threads we have is Hahanerd's and Finn's. We have never bumped Hahanerd's thread as he is almost completely separate from the way we sell gold, and the one time I unintentionally bumped Finn's when I vouched for him, which I believe was the first vouch from me to him. Hahanerd likes to go around and check up on all our threads because he feels as if he's actually part of the team, but he doesn't do shit (inb4hemad) so I'll just tell him to stop bumping the threads.

If they are selling the same stock then they use the one thread. Individual stock would need its own thread, you can't restrict them to the one thread because of the brand name.

Inclined to agree, which is why I am saying so long as they cease the constant bumping for each other, then it shouldnt be an issue.

 

Then shouldn't the thread say buy gold from me I'm on Sythe, and not I'm selling gold I'm online at a different website?

And does "Advertising: posting threads advertising sites - only allowed in personal signatures, advertising a business website (goldfarm sites) are not allowed in signatures or anywhere on the site unless you pay for a link. Email [email protected] if you want to purchase a link." not apply here? I'm sure since all of the members that are a part of the site are highly respected members of Sythe, in high positions, like HHN, Finn and Gohan that all of the precautions have been followed, but does this mean that the rule is null if an advertisement is purchased, and the owner can pay for links in signatures or have them in their threads?

Not trying to bash anyone here, I <3 all the people who are running the site and think it's a GREAT idea, I've personally used it a few times and will continue to, but these points above kind of stuck out at me and I was wondering about them.

He purchased an advertisement on Sythe, hence its allowed.

 

Ah okay. That's what I thought but was just wondering.

I do believe RSUltimate is the victim here though.

If we have multiple threads, but only one is active at once (due to the different shifts) and we're not allowed to help eachother out in any way (what Nate suggested), then we would actually be at a disadvantage. Gohan, one of my sellers, was apparently infracted for excessive bumping on the one thread we share, during his shift. If we're going to be strict about what sellers can and can't do on a thread, I would like everything enforced equally.

For example, R2Anne, despite sharing threads with R2Pleasent and Ryan, sure does double/triple post a lot, but that hasn't even been brought up.

I dont care who you are, if you are bumping or spamming a thread more than you should, you will get infracted if someone reports it. If a sectional is guilty of it, ill pass it up to a global. No more blame games; everyone follow the rule about not free bumping or excessively bumping your own thread, and everything will be fine.

 

[Alteranz]

Aren't all of the RSUltimate threads done through the same site?

 

[Plznate]

Its just a brand name, but they each sell gold on an entirely separate basis, just each is affiliated with the company.

Well of course, but you forgot the main purpose of this thread is to prohibit multiple threads. My point was that RSUltimate is being the main focus here when all businesses should be treated equally and the decision should be made based on what the staff thinks is fair for all.

 

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Finn does not have his "own stock". He is an employee for RSU. I mean he speaks through your Live Chat, he is listed as an employee. Furthermore, when you are selling through a private website like RSU, the argument for whose stock it is doesn't matter.

At the end of the day I'm fine with either verdict. If we allow two threads for RSU, then I will just have my employee(s) make the maximum number of threads allowed as well.

 

[FaTaL Sh0t X]

theres been little businesses like this before with 3 or 4 people and theyve used one thread with no problems.

the one selling his own stock is fine, imo

If a rule isn't brought in to limit the threads each company/brand can have, that whole forum is going to get messy. I find it hard to accept the excuse of 'We all operate at different times', when if that's the case, each person should be able to operate under the same thread, bumping it when they are online.

Or, if there is still an issue, Grave has the knowledge to code up a page indicating which of his employees are currently online and who is not. I think we can safely say that R2 and Anne have been operating under one thread for quite some time now and everything works fine.

I'd be fine with going to one thread, but it would bother Finn and Hahanerd a bit. Let's just make a final decision and see what happens. I wouldn't mind having one thread, and I actually believe it will benefit us more since it will always be on the first page and it will help build our name. Right now R2Pleasent and Anne are doing so by doing massive amounts of posts back to back, whether it be Anne doing a triple post or Will posting right after hers in less than half an hour. Hahanerd just chose to keep his thread separated since he has his own stock, and Finn chose to keep his separate because it was easier for him, but I personally have no problem combining them all. See, you guys still don't understand the main difference. With our multiple threads, only ONE person is selling at once. However, for example, R2Pleasent having one thread, there's multiple sellers at once selling the gold.

 

[iTWiiX]

i agree with r2, it should be 1 thread per shop other wise its unfair for other shops

As others have been saying, I think from both sides of the debate, we're only looking at two companies. If we allow multiple threads, we're both going to have 3+ threads each dominating the front pages and killing everyone else who is just trying to sell some of their gold.

I don't want to start a war, but if Richard could read the thread, both sides of the debate and make a decision, that would be great.

 

[FireZ]

I'd just like to see every company go to a single thread and whoever is online on their "shift" be able to bump within reason as they please.

I have been letting bumps in gold selling slide a lot more due to how many sellers there are as well.

You still don't understand... that never happens. We only have one thread in the front page at once because our business concept is different. Everyone works at a different time. There are never two people selling gold at once.
