  • Moved from General to Offers (because effectively, this is an offer thread)

    So basically selling rules doesn't matter?
    I mean this doesn't even have a single plan mentioned and no pricing at all..

    So what's the need to have any selling or pricing limit rule?

    This provider deliberately post same kind of offer thread per and over again but mod ignoring this..

    So from now any provider can post any kind of offer because they paid the LET ransom?

    I mean is this the new PurpleDaddy!!??

    You are a very good mod @angstrom but I'm not sure why you missed that!

    Hi @BingoBongo ,

    What exactly did I miss?

    If you can point to the particular rule that the OP has broken, I will gladly reconsider, but at the moment, I don't see that the OP has broken any rules. (Except for posting in General instead of Offers, but I corrected this)

    At this time, LET doesn't have a rule that says that a provider needs to post a specific offer if they advertise their services in an offer thread

    1. For currency other than USD, it is your responsibility to ensure the equivalent USD price at the time of posting is within the rules.
      Robot says: Not a single currency detected.

    2. List the final recurring price after any discounts.
      Robot says: Not a single recurring price detected.

    3. Be informative in your offers. List basic specifications (memory, storage, bandwidth, port speed, virtualization technology) and pricing on a per-plan basis. Datacenter location and a test IP or Looking Glass would be ideal.
      Robot says: Not a single basic specifications or pricing on a per-plan basis detected.

    I am very glad you moved this to Offers (and provider is blocked for another 10 days), but this is not an offer, it's just weekly newsletter spam.

    @angstrom exactly this...

    No plan details mentioned no information about pricing.. and all others..

    On their website almost all products is more than $10

    So by this logic any provider can post this kind of thread even if their products pricing is above $10 limit

    Hi @JabJab ,

    Thanks for your efforts, but I don't really see how the OP has broken rules 3, 4, or 5. In order for these rules to be applicable, a specific offer needs to posted. If a specific offer isn't posted, then these rules aren't applicable

    I understand well that users on LET are accustomed to seeing (and in fact prefer seeing) specific offers posted, but as I said above, at this time, a provider isn't obliged to post a specific offer in an offer thread

    (If I've gotten this wrong, then I'm sure that a mod or an admin will correct me!)

    @angstrom exactly this...

    See my reply to @JabJab just above

    On their website almost all products is more than $10

    In USD, their cheapest VPS plan costs $8.43/month

    So by this logic any provider can post this kind of thread even if their products pricing is above $10 limit

    Most if not all providers have products that they don't explicitly mention in offer threads that are above the LET pricing rules

  • Lowering standards for offers is not the zen way. It promotes indolence, prone to misinterpretation and are repulsive for those who seek quick and easy dose of nice promotion to consume.

    Don't let your guard down, keep your standards and decorum on high end at the low end forum.

  • @FAT32 @raindog308 sorry to disturb you guys.. but as you are more mature mod here, can you please confirm if it's acceptable to just post website link in offer thread without mentioning any plan, specs or pricing?

    So what's the point to have any pricing limit on selling rules?

    Thanks for your reply..

    But it's still unclear why is there any rule/pricing limit when any provider can post this kind of thread..

    Hope other mods can clarify this..

    Thanks anyway

    BTW, wish you a very happy new year :smiley:

    Sorry but I'll just chip in.

    Not "any provider" but only Patron Providers are allowed to post offers in the "Offers" category.

    So let's say you run a business selling home-brewed beer/liquor and you're traveling/flying to a foreign country for leisure (or even business) and thought of bringing some bottles with you to promote and to use as "testers", you would have to conform to the Customs limits and other importation rules & regulations that are in place.

    Now if you're traveling without bringing any of them with you, and you'll just promote/market your business and goods by word-of-mouth or by handing out flyers or whatever, then those specific limits don't and won't apply.

    Paying for the flight ticket and other tourist taxes/fees (if any) doesn't mean you have to bring those stuff in (physically), but if you're planning to or if you do, there are rules and limits for them.

    I mean that's how I see it, but well, I'm not a "mature mod" so I'll let @raindog308 or @jbiloh comment or correct me if I'm wrong ✌️

    1. You don't have cashback, you have credits.
    2. You don't state your "We guarantee our clients 99,999% uptime" anywhere or list the SLA and reimbursement when down.

    I've never had a good experience with any company that falsely calls a credit system as cashback. If the customer can't take that money out to spend on something else, it's credit. Plain and simple. It's literally in the names.

    Oh, and buy 200 services and get one free, isn't the promo you think it is.
