When is RWI gonna be back online?

Recommended Posts

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

Then the prophecy is true. Praise be to the Swiss Rep Gods

I'm sure they wish they did. As do I :D

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.

Got to be careful @NCRich will be along to edit our posts... you see, they don't want the world to know that these backdoor swiss clones exist.

No biggie. They're actually made in Italy anyhow. :gagged:

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

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.

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.

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.

3M visits per month, 200$ for enterprise hosting are sufficient.

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.

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.

You just made me very angry.  In every media outlet, all we seem to hear about is sexual abuse, and you fuel it by posting pictures of a moderator's children.  Shame on you.

@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...)

Why some would post the mean, nasty things they did in this thread about rwg who is also hosting this thread is beyond me.  I was a supporter before the crash and I appreciate this forum as much as I do repgeek and rwi.  If you are not satisfied, move on, don't complain that your free membership is not up to your expectations for the sales section...just don't shop here anymore...go away quietly.  There's a whole world you are missing, but I doubt these individuals are interested in this anyway.   I held back initially from posting here, but I couldn't hold back any more. . It's very poor form to show such disrespect towards this forum.  The disrespectful manor is what drove me to post this.

 

And my 2 cents, the admins invest alot of their time into these forms, so they should be allowed to have some compensation and I would not begrudge any who did get some compensation as that seems fair to me.   i understand there is a lot of overhead and costs associated with the maintenance of these forms.  Think of the admins like the editors and publishers of a magazine.  Publishers are compensated for their time, so it seems fair that there should be something for the admins also.  I feel as though anyone who frequently accesses these forms should shell out the couple of dollars to help with running costs, it's only fair and truthfully, these forums give me far more entertainment and pleasure then going to a movie.

  Rant done.  

 

I appreciate all the admins and mods who offer their time for free so I can enjoy these forms.  Thank you!
