Service Requests: Others can't reply to your threads.
 

As you can see from this thread:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...504#post755504

Others want to reply.

I've got 3 people, 4 if you include myself and a potential 5th person who's interested in a partnership for a service request... How are they supposed to express their say in this? By forwarding PM's?

I have never seen a forum set up like and see no reason to keep it like this.
It makes it 15 times harder to bring something together.

Also.
I posted a link to this thread on The Admin Zone, but unfortuanitly, this is one of those areas of the site that you have to be registered to view... Never the less, they were not very impressed by my little blue link.


That is all.
It often baffles me when staff posts stickies and lock them when there are unanswered questions...

There's your answer right there. Provide contact details in the thread. If those contact details are a place where anyone can continue the discussion, then doesn't THAT allow them to express their say?

I am assuming that this would be within the definition of 'Contact Details'.

If they did not close them there would be chaos, people mass promoting and such. Forcing us to view new posts all the time on a service request.

I beleive they set up that section as a comprimise to 'paid' hacks, instead of not allowing them at all they now allow a 'limited' way for those who wish to pay money to find a coder.

good, another complaint from Brinnie... i come to be addict now...

kall's post answered the OP's question. It's a Service REQUEST forum, not a Service OFFER forum.

As this has nothing to do with you, I feel that "Troll" is the appropriate word for your post.

But I suppose that is in partial for your lack of comprehension and I should have made it more clear:

I have 3 people who would like to reply.
It's in my best interest to secure my partners wishes...

Take it up with them :)





How would that logic translate into the Hack REQUEST forums?

Gotcha. ;)

Perhaps it's in your best interests, but seriously all hell would break loose if other users were able to reply to service requests, and it would create a huge moderating task.

The current setup is appropriate enough I feel if contact details are left. That way, things can be discussed and should you want all 3 people involved in the discussion, you can always arrange a 3-way-convo on a private forum, chat room or an instant messenger service.

... i think he was referring to your few fellows... don't mix the "others" with "everybody"... please! rules are made for the community, not for a bunch of people, even for the most important ones!

No,

Just the people who are involved with the production of the hack.

I thought you were banned...

Theres no reason to change the rules of the service request... I like using PMs, and it keeps JelSoft out of harms way if something went wrong...
