GingerApple 7,281 Posted January 15, 2018 I shall be forever grateful to RWG; my bezel paint mod has been nominated for the DIY Mod Project of the Year Award (even though there is no such award and in any event, I just plagiarised the technique from someone at RWI lol) AND I did my first ever M2M deal here just yesterday. Whoop whoop! So cheers RWG! I'll certainly be hanging around once RWI is back up - double the pleasure! Share this post Link to post
GingerApple 7,281 Posted January 15, 2018 Let's not ban people for a difference of opinion though. Take the piss out of them, post funny memes at their expense etc - but banning them for saying it's a bit quieter here than at RWI (which it is) - nah. Share this post Link to post

People think RWG is great, I don't think it has anything RWI doesn't except some guy named PBR who chimes in everywhere. Just sharing my thoughts in the RWI club clubroom.

It has watch reviews and off-topic threads all the same. I'm positive I'm about to be banned so see you at RWI when you need to sell a watch lul. Sorry that you can't handle adverse opinions.

I assume you are not a supporting member there either, and more of a leech on the community, so it may be hard to understand. I am fine with your opinions, but you are being a dick when you badmouth that the sales section here aren't to your standards, and you should expect reactions from members.

Hyjynx 2 Posted January 15, 2018 When RWI is back I'm not sure I'll ever return here. While I appreciate not being homeless, this is like moving from NYC to rural fucking Alaska. 90% of my time on RWI is spent in the m2m section which is probably why RWG feels so desolate. I feel like RWI has at least 20-30 m2m listings a day vs 1-2 here it's a big change.Prepared for whatever flame I am going to get over sharing my opinionSent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk I’m with you on that one!! It’s a dead beat here.. it satisfied my needs at the start when RWI went down but it’s like a ghost town here compared to over there Rural? Desolate? Dead beat? Ghost town? To quote the great Bard, “A pox on both your houses!” There, you just got honorably flamed. You’re welcome. Seriously, what you two have said is quite in bad taste and unbecoming of refugees. Don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya. Share this post Link to post
bora12 0 Posted January 15, 2018 For real man. Some people like quiet, I mean shit I live in the fucking country. But I need my forums interesting because my country life is so boring.People are so damn sensitive.Anyways boys don't let me serve as a representative of RWI as a whole, I'm just one guy speaking his truths. RWI folk are good people. I'm just an impulsive nerd with too much time on my hands.Sent from my SM-T350 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post
deju 1,868 Posted January 15, 2018 Unappreciative cunts... esp those who don’t even read TB99’s thread on what’s happening with the forum they hold so dear. Not so much those who miss RWI, it’s nothing to do with moving rural or such bare in mind you’re displaced across both RWG and RG just now. It’s just there is no place like Home. Personally I like both RWG and RWI. Share this post Link to post

I became an RWI supporter my 2nd week actually. I'll become a supporter here for supporting the rep watch community I find this hobby hugely interesting. I've been a pretty active participant since I've been here you can check my posts I'm like 75% useful 25% flame or something.I have reviews planned for RWI when it comes back online for my gen 2531.80 and my 16610 Franken project so I'm really not that big of a leech.Sent from my SM-T350 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post

Manhattan88 0 Posted January 16, 2018 RWI How can people need such a long time to set up the forum again? And no, it is not a "free" forum, they were making substantial gains with VIP memberships, which they were advertising all the time. The cost to operate a forum, even when it is very big, is not very high, I know it. As it seems, chances were given, that crackers have stolen your password, this is very bad, never heard of sth. like that before. Most likely, I will be at the forum with most members and most traffic, topics and so on. If this is not RWI in the future, I will not be very sad. Share this post Link to post

You won't make a lot of friends with a post like that cause it proves that you haven't done a lot of reading and you only rely on your feeling and limited understanding of the subject. It's a free forum because you don't have to pay anything to use it, but you could help with the cost and time associated with maintaining it. Clearly you haven't owned a dedicated server able to handle a forum this big, otherwise you would know the cost associated with it, is on the high side. The "cracker" hasn't stolen a password, he managed to find it and if you've never heard of that before that doesn't mean it's a rare thing. And your last sentence is not a very pleasant one for people here on RWG, I go where I found quality not quantity. RWI is much bigger than RWG but I enjoy RWG better even if this is quieter.
