WSO Rules - Please Read !!!!! Updated February 6, 2012

admin · 08-06-2008, 10:32 AM

Follow The Rules Listed Below In This Thread And There Will Be No Problem.

---------------------

Anything going against what is posted below will be deleted.

New People Here: The WSO forum is full of great deals and the vast majority of the people are 100% honest. People have also made and continue to make small and large fortunes posting their deals in here. Even though most Warriors are honest and offer real value, it pays to use common sense here just as it does anywhere else on the Internet.

If you have a question about a WSO ask the seller before you buy. The seller's forum history, profile, and what they have posted is available for members to research and evaluate.

After making a purchase please post your review. Since the forum does not review, recommend, or confirm the content of WSOs, and disclaims all responsibility for whether they live up to their promises, your truthful evaluation is important for all members considering a purchase.

Please keep your reviews objective and remember there is a full spectrum of experience by our worldwide membership.

The Rules:

1. All WSOs Must Comply With Forum Rules, US Laws, and the Laws of Your Location. Keep in mind the forum cannot possibly review and evaluate WSOs. Legal compliance is strictly your responsibility. Do not ask me or a moderator if what you are offering is legal.

The forum does not tolerate false claims. Treat your membership like gold as violating forum rules can result in a loss of WSO posting privileges.

Your War Room membership gives you an opportunity to submit WSOs, but the forum solely decides what is allowed. From time to time the forum may not allow certain advertisements, products, or services, and this could affect the ability of existing offers to be bumped or even continued.

2. All WSO's Must Be Something You Created. A Product Of Your Own. (A package of ebooks someone threw together is not considered a product and will be deleted) This is completely self explanatory and not up for debate. If you yourself did not create the product do not post it here.

3. A Warrior Special Offer Means The Price You Give Must Be Better Than The Price The Public At Large Can Get. (This is not a "buy my product" forum, it is a "Special Offer" forum)

4. Anyone Caught Scamming Members Will Be Deleted From This Forum Entirely. (obviously)

5. If By Chance You Do Get Scammed By Someone The Problem Is Between You And Them. Not The Forum. Not The MOD's. And Not The Forum Owner. If you get scammed you deal with the person that scammed you. That's just the way it has to be. You have zero protection in here just like you have zero protection on the rest of the Internet. You can charge back on them, you can sue them or you can post about them all over the Internet. Whatever you do is entirely between you and the seller.

6. If Your WSO Does Not Get Approved Right Away Please DO NOT Start Emailing The MOD's Or Posting About It In The Main Forum. Sometimes It Takes Time.

7. We no longer allow wild characters and ascii art in WSO titles. The image at the bottom of this post is an example of what we want to stop. Look at it closely. Your WSO will no longer be approved if it looks like those in that image. Be moderate. If your current WSO goes against this rule edit it now. I'm not going to attempt to go into this rule with a fine tooth comb and create a massive volume for it. Just use common sense and create normal titles, with normal use of quotes and exclamation marks if desired.

8. You may not use video testimonials from anyone who has an offer to sell them on Fiverr.com or any other site.

9. (added 29 June 2011) You may not offer any kind of "bribe" inside your product in exchange for leaving reviews in your WSO thread. For instance, you can't offer a bonus report that people only get if they leave a review. This makes all the reviews in your thread at least slightly suspect.

(added 9 July 2011) The above paragraph isn't as clear as it could have been -- It's OK to publicly offer review copies, for free or at a discount, inside your WSO thread. Reviewers should make sure to say in their reviews that they received review copies. Transparency is the key here.

If you find someone else doing this in a WSO you've purchased, feel free to report it.

10. (Added February 6, 2012) Do not link to off-site reviews from within a WSO thread.

HINTS:

1. Find a WSO that looks like it went well and use that as a model for yours.

2. Give people as much info as they will need to make a decision. This helps you, the buyer and the MOD's.

3. People have used this section of the forum to launch $20,000 a month businesses. Believe it or not, it's a fact. Treat it like Gold because that is exactly what it can be for you.

4. Become a contributing member here before trying to post a WSO.

More hints will be added later...

Thank you!

UPDATED: Anyone caught trying to purposefully harm another persons WSO will be removed from this forum permanently. If you bought the WSO you have a right to comment on it. However, if you have not bought it you have no right to say anything at all about it. You have no basis on which to even give an opinion one way or the other.

If you think someone is trying to harm your WSO on purpose just PM admin here in the forum.

NEW UPDATE - APRIL 2ND

We will no longer be allowing WSO's for membership sites that buy master rights here and give them to all their members.

Over the last two weeks it seems 10 new membership sites have sprung up for the express purpose of buying all the WSO's with master rights and giving them to their members. This will no longer be allowed and all such WSO's will be deleted.

admin · 08-18-2008, 04:54 AM

ALL Posts Going Against These Rules Will Be Moved To The Classified Ad Section Or May Even Be Deleted Entirely.

Read The Rules, Understand Them And Follow Them Please...

Thanks Allen I must admit when I first joined I had no idea how hard you worked to maintain such a great place - I fully respect this now and will not only comply with these rules but realize just how much value you are providing us by enforcing these rules.

Ding dong the witch is dead... the wicked witch... the mean, old witch. Ding dong the wicked witch is dead...

Thank you Allen for getting rid of that ugly ASCII art... it really was going overboard lately.

Hey Admin,

Thanks for making the WSO a more friendly on eyes. I have lots of headache looking at so many strange character at the previous WSO section.

Well done!

Finally! No more massive eye strain from trying to find offers in the WSO forum.

Justin Mandel · 10-16-2009, 12:53 PM

Thanks for getting rid of those horrific characters - this is long overdue

Charann Miller · 10-16-2009, 12:56 PM

Oh wow, just went in there and it looks soooooo much better!

If I didn't get the alert about the new ruling I would have gotten a shock.

Place looks great now, nice job.

Jeremy Morgan · 10-16-2009, 01:08 PM

Much, much better. I have always put characters in my WSO's, but always felt like I had to just to get noticed. It's like if every store on your street has neon signs, you better have on too! I'm very glad that now we don't have to do that and can just put our actual message in there.

Thanks Allen, great work you're doing here.
