Ton of vendors here and I wanted to know what was their take on all this stuff going on with the new site owners and raising the price to double on us.

Do you plan on renewing?

With failsafe gone now after all the work he did for us vendors I think it's time to go on strike for failsafe until he is back in office handling our stuff (And all the other supermods that made this place possible)

 

Nobody should post in this thread except for Vendors/Mods/Admin's. ALL other posts will be deleted.

 

Just so all the vendors are aware- it was not my intent to leave anything in limbo like this. I've worked diligently with all of you over the last 3 1/2 years and you know this is not my style. I've been in touch with IB and have sent several lengthy emails to some of their higher ups. Unfortunately nothing has been worked out as of this point in time.

Thanks to all the sponsors for their overwhelming and continued support. I'm hoping something can be worked out, but at this point the decision is out of my hands.

Jason I know you didnt and thank you for support and everything you continue to do for us. And I'm sure you did expect this from them but its just wrong I personally will hope for my350zV2.com

 

If we build it, they will come...

I'm in.

 

Well, first, we actually have to be contacted by IB with their new prices. Has this happened to anyone other than one vendor so far?

I emailed them two days ago about the banner ad we wanted, and no response yet.

Has anyone received a "renewal" notice? Or just a price list of sorts.

 

I've yet to get any word on anything myself Sharif. I've emailed a few times with 0 response.

 

Then why are we complaining? Maybe Jason hooked us up with perpetual accounts.

Personally, I am not going to stir the pot, until I recieve a renew notice.

 

agreed

 

Too bad I didn't get that banner ad package prior to the switch-over...that is my only regret so far.

 

They doubled the prices vendors were contacted already

 

I must have missed that email or something? Nobody said anything to me about where or how to send my money???? I even emailed them saying, "Yo, Jason usually tells me when i'm coming up due for my sponsor account. Where and who do i pay now?"

They came back with following answer:

Cricket..... Cricket..... Cricket.......

 

As long as your vendor status is still active, I wouldn't worry about it.

I paid for a full year on all the sites in advance, so I'm in it for the long haul. What they did to Jason was low. He has built such a good working relationship with all the vendors and to take him away without even a replacement, is a joke.
