I miss the old WarriorForum

28 replies
support has been terrible.

I launched a wso yesterday and my offer didn't got listed on the affiliate marketplace like it should have. I had the offer listed in muncheye for over a month and had a ton of affiliates on board. But thanks to the terrible new wso system, not only is it not listed for affiliates to promote but its not even tracking, reporting or even allowing me to edit the code.

And I have had CERO response from support (freelancer.com)

Today I asked for a refund for the $20 that it costs to list an offer but I have a feeling as to what the response to that will be...

That's why I say I really miss the forum of old. (I understand those who disagree and I bet you can understand my frustration too).

    What new system? It's the same system as it always has been unless you're talking about using warrior payments instead of warriorplus or jvzoo?

      The problem for the OP appears to be with the guarantee in his title of the WSO launched in December 2014.

      Instead of editing and bumping the WSO, he started another WSO thread with same product/copy. That may have been an error of misunderstanding by the OP and, if so, help desk should sort it out.

        Perhaps but I wasn't able to edit it either, the system doesn't show the code. It shows a blank canvas.

    I was just about tho create a thread about this myself when I saw this.

    I've had a free WSO launched in the Classified ad section over a week ago and still did not get any PM about approved or not.

    And on top of that I bumped a thread about a few minutes ago and now it is not showing up on top.

    What is happening with the WF?

      It also frustrates me that when you click "Help" it takes you to Freelancer.com and there you are received by someone who theeen redirects you to a warriorforum rep because their livechat is only for freelancer stuff.

        Yeah that is also very annoying.

        But why the heck a paid thread bump doesn't bump makes me feel I literally paid for nothing.

    I miss the really old warrior forum, the original one where only top marketers were involved and where it was a truly great place to keep up with new ideas and to have meaningful mastermind sessions.

    The one where every post was moderated by Paul first before it was live on the forum.

    where a WSO was really and truly a special offer of your existing products to warriors.

    not going to get that back either

      .... not unless the new owners instruct their mods to protect the hustlers.

      Do you really want that cesspool back?

      This forum is stronger than ever. The only element of deterioration has been towards the ability to hustle get rich quick scams here.

        You don't really believe that do you? There's still a ton of people peddling that stuff, the only difference is the restriction of income claims, which is a step in the right direction indeed.

        As for being stronger than ever... well... Alexa knows what's up... 6 months ago it was 221, now 793. While I don't necessarily think people should put much stock in Alexa traffic rankings, I do think that it's a decent form of measurement for a site like this when it's been ranking high for years and years and then plummets.

        Only time will tell... I've seen lots of forums die out that used to have massive traffic. Hopefully it doesn't happen here.

        I couldn't agree more.....

        The garbage WSOs with headlines like.....

        "Make $1,000,000 While You Sleep Without Any Effort EVEN If You Cannot Figure Out How To Turn On Your Computer"

        Look like they are gone...

        I DON'T miss them at all.... :-)

      One thing I found really weird was how the forum actually only allows you to sell products ONLY available on the WF.

      Wasn't the original point of the WSO forum to only let people share offers that promoted "special offers" of products that were being sold for a higher price elsewhere but cheaper on the WSO forum?

      Well, I guess we just have to adapt. There is still a lot to fix though aside from just not allowing sellers to make income claims.

      I feel like the income claims was just the tip of the surface in regards to making the WSO forum.

            Yes, but that was many years ago - not the same WSO section today.

          I've had a total of 2 beers in 2015. But hey, weed is now legal in Oregon so I guess I could do marketing videos while pulling tubes off the 6 foot bong!

  • Why don't you contact support about listing the offer.. instead of asking for a refund..

    2) Why don't you create your own website and use Clickbank or JVZoo for affiliates?

      Thanks for your suggestions. I did contact support with little response and barely relevant to my core problem. And I do have my own website which does very good, this was a special offer for marketers on the forum which is what the WSO are all about.

    This is why you should never market your services or products through one channel.
