SamsonAusKognito 31 Posted January 16, 2018 To read so much bullshit in one thread is not good for my blood pressure. You drive me seriously nuts! As you can see on the left, I am/was a pretty long time and active member here on RWG and I feel home on RWI too (where I was the most time recently) but this is thanks to the Bierhouse Section and the big amount of modding over there. To me RWG and RWI are not very comparable, I love both Forums they are to indivdual to say one could replace the other. And let's be honest even if our mods would enrich themselves with my lousy 45$ per year (what I don't believe) they would deserve it! I mean come on dude easy calculation what do you think how often we would get scammed and ripped off without our ambitiously Mods who always Held their Hands over us, even if I were a dick to TB99 or others, they have never let me stood in the rain. Without RWG, RWI and the others this Hobby would not exist in it's quality and dimension it has now. Be a bit more thankful @bora12 and @Manhattan88 or be at least so grown up to shut up if you have nothing nice to say and /or leave. How dare you to waste other peoples time and spelling shit on RWG with all this heartblood in here. Share this post Link to post
deju 1,836 Posted January 16, 2018 I heard that Greg-r & TB99 own a small island off the coast of Mexico, just to store the freebie 1:1 watches they get. When you become a moderator you get to fly to their island on their private jet once a year and take as many 1:1 reps as you can carry. None of that chinese crap either only Swiss A+++ Clones Share this post Link to post

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I'm sure they wish they did. As do I It IS possible to make money running a forum - but it has to be a very big/successful one to do so. I know a guy who makes his living that way (computing related - no names) and he does fairly okay, but he's got a million+ members, 25 million posts and an average of 4-6k browsers online 24 hours a day. Even then, VIP subs don't make much of a profit beyond keeping the place online (supporting members are always a very small percentage of the whole). Most of his income is derived from advertising revenue. Share this post Link to post

Word on the street is that the real AAA++ Swiss 1:1 reps are actually genuine watches snuck out the back door of the factory. I know this is true because my Uncle's best friends pigeon got his AP LeBron James checked out by an AD, and others confirmed as genuine. Not bad for a $650 watch Share this post Link to post

Natas78 30 Posted January 16, 2018 While m2m certainly is a huge draw for a lot of folks me included, it also accounts for a lot of issues for the moderators as it attracts the good, the bad & the fugly. I will frequent RWG more often as I found the forum very hospitable and everyone was nice, but then again you reap what you sow. Share this post Link to post
McGilli 1 Posted January 16, 2018 Of all the RWI threads I've read in the last month - I have to say I'm really intrigued about the M2M there since I've seen it mentioned a few times about how active it is. Not that I'd buy any - you never know - but I love window shopping and it sounds like that would treat my need to see watches quite well. Also - there have been some people that have come here and actually been active and cool. So, regardless of what happens - I'm glad those people are hanging around here. Share this post Link to post

Paneraiguy000 0 Posted January 16, 2018 Obviously RWI is the king of m2m here in the rep world. But since it’s been down, I’ve been here and at RepGeek a lot more. Its neat seeing different users as well as the same. By frequenting all the forums you experience different personalities, reviews, eye candy, etc. Youre really limiting yourself if you stick to one forum. Each one has its pros and cons.

Are you fucking taking the piss or are you really that ignorant? You are out by a factor of about 4 and that's just servers and the cloud so you can add on all the other expenses such as software upgrades, mail services, consultancy services and the like as well. After this debacle I will need to shell out for a physical token 2FA system for all staff with super moderator or higher access as well, there's another grand or two down the tubes. What is left at the end of the month would be hard pressed to feed a dieting field mouse. There is also the small matter of several people who have spent a hell of a lot of time making things right who deserve something in return sooner or later. I'd love to make a decent income off RWI but I don't. You know jack shit, please fuck off and die as you are beginning to shit me and it's been a hard enough slog as it is these past weeks. 12 hours ago, deju said: @trailboss99 Apparently, yes.

mikebio 0 Posted January 17, 2018 I only joined here because RWI was done. I've had nothing but great experiences there. I hope it is back up soon. Just seemed more popular and more content. Plus the reviews were awesome. Share this post Link to post

androme 0 Posted January 20, 2018 @trailboss99 as a supporter already, I don't mind upgrading to Patron once everything is back up to help just a little bit as I appreciate everything you and the staff do just like l became a supporter here, not that I'm bragging. If you need a beer at some point, sure we could arrange a little kitty pot between us users eg if everyone donated a £1 it could go a long way (well in London, with extortionate prices, would probably just about get you a drink...)
