Hi,

I recently posted a bit of a rant about Paypals anti-laundering system catching me out and causing me a few issues while I jumped through their hoops.

I posted it because I needed to vent and I knew my warrior family would understand and allow that, and also to remind others that they do these things so that other people might be mindful when setting up payments for things that recur using paypal.

Well, there was a varied response from you all.

Everything from amazing people PMing me and asking if they would like me to have them use their Paypal while I got it sorted, to someone accusing me of only making the post as some sort of showing off about making money.

So on the one hand I was utterly amazed by fellow Warrior generosity (I've never had any personal interaction with this person who offered to use their paypal, so that made it even more amazing), and on the other hand I felt terrible that someone could read such a thing in to my post to think that there was some ulterior motive to show off.

So - I wanted to let you know how amazing you all are and that whenever I forget just how great some people here are - something happens to remind me.

For the record - I'm just a normal guy going through life just doing the best I can to find the right answers to what life is all about for me. I'm not a Guru or some idiot earning a ton of money who's forgotten what it's like to struggle. In fact, most of my life I've been in debt - until I found Internet marketing and this great forum. Even then it took a few years to get out of debt, so no having money worries is a relatively recent thing for me.

So, to those of you who keep this forum the amazingly friendly and positive place it is....

THANK YOU!

Andy

    Hi Andy

    I wanted to post a reply in that thread but it was closed.

    A similar thing happened to me with Paypal and it was a complete pain. They don't seem to like it when a arge amount of money arrives in your Paypal account. )

    Go figure.

    As for the person who accused you of only making the post to boast about your income, I think you'll find that Warriors who've been here for a while will know full well that that is total rubbish and they'll also know how much value you contribute to this forum.

    Hope you get the Paypal problem sorted soon.

    By the way, I had recuuring memeber payments set up and Paypal's stop meant that those members payments were not taken and their memberships were cancelled. Some never rejoined and those that did had to start with lesson 1 all over again. Bit of a nightmare but I got through it with gritted teeth at the time.

    Cheers,

    Roy

      Well as I have only just come back to my business and therefore to the WF (such a good source of help and info) due to family issues, I didn't read the thread you are referring to Andy.

      Sorry you had that bother and I do hope it is resolved soon.

      As for the idiot who pm'd you... they are just sad muppets and you know to ignore fools like that.

      You have been a great help to me in the past and I am glad to always see your name on these boards as it does help to make it feel a safe place to learn and to hang out.

      Take care Andy

          Yeah, I actually usually let all that stuff slide, but this month is the first time I've actually used the ignore feature - and I've used it more than once. That's a sad thing to say but it probably reflects some of the recent influx of people with attitudes that seem to have turned up here.

    Don't worry about it Andy. The main reason I am posting much less in the main forum right now is that I just don't know when I am going to get attacked and insulted. It sort of ruins your day and I can't aford to let this happen to me at the moment.

    It is quite clear a lot of older members are getting put off by the aggressiveness of newcomers.
