So here we go.
I thought you guys might get a chuckle out of some of the emails we get privately, as admins. Mark observed, that this was definitely barrel worthy.

Original email:
Quote
To: DSM Canada Admins
Subject: angry

I was a member for a very long time. I dont understand why
my reg wont work. I tried using my work mail which is a in
shop account and still no luck. I have alot of parts for
sale, and it would suck for alot of my old friend on this
site 2 miss out. I purly go to this site to help people out,
and offer good prices to other dsm'rs. Would b a shame to
have to use a new site and not sell through yourself. Please
if possabe get back and let me know what the deal is.

dsm_420@hotmail.com

Randy Nash
Ok, so another guy, (who may be the nicest guy in the world, but who we don't know from a hole in the ground) is looking to unload used parts, via a Hotmail account.
Ugh.
I get about one of these a week.

So, I reply:
Quote
Thank you for your "angry " email.

A. You can sell your parts anywhere, we don't really care either way.
You are the one benefitting after all, not us.
B. We haven't accepted hotmail accounts for a year now.

Andrew
Yes, it's always nice to have more parts to choose from, but this guy's email checks out as a Sympatico account, yet he keeps insisting he has to use Hotmail. So, he gets the terse response, designed to scare away would-be crooks.

Then we get the best one:
Quote
Wow I never thought I would recive a rude message like that. Thats fine.
Glad u can see a joke in this. Its pathetic that customer service is represented by a message like this.
A.I WAS A MEMBER BEFORE A YEAR AGO, IM USING THE SAME ACCOUNT AS I DID 3 YRS AGO.
B.I CAN SELL MY PARTS IN OTHER PLACES. BUT AS A CANADIAN BUILT COMPANY I WOULD THINK THAT U WOULD BE HAPPY TO SEE SOMEONE WHO TAKES THE TIME TO SELL ON YOUR SITE AND KEEP MEMBERS HAPPY.
C.U ARE RIGHT IN THE SENCE THAT U DONT NEED ME TO SELL THERE AND THATS FINE BUT I DO KNOW THAT KEEPING A GOOD NAME FOR YOUR SITE IS IMPORTANT!

SO TRUTHFULLY I DONT CARE IF U WONT ALLOW MY ACCOUNT BACK ON BUT I DO KNOW I WILL MAKE SURE TO LET PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT THIS SITUATION. (WEATHER THAT BOTHERS U OR NOT) I DONT NEED TO SELL MY PARTS THERE I DONT EVEN NEED TO
SELL (I MAKE MORE IN 15 MIN THAN U DO IN A DAY) I WAS ONLY TRYING TO BRING
YOUR MEMBERS A MAJOR STEEL OF A CAR AND PART IT OUT AS IF IT WAS BROKE.

I HOPE THAT AS U MATURE IN LIFE U WILL LEARN THAT KEEPING CUSTOMERS HAPPY IS VERY VERY IMPORTANT IN THE GROWTH OF YOUR COMPANY. THIS MAY BE A HOBBIE FOR U BUT IT STILL REPRESENTS U AS A PERSON AND U AS A OWNER.

THANKS PAL.

RANDY NASH

AND JUST TO LET U KNOW THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE WHO DONT HAVE
ACCESS TO OTHER EMAIL. MY OTHER MAIL IS A WORK MAIL AND CANT
BE USED IN ONLINE ACTIVITY.
SO REALLY ITS YOUR LOSS NOT MINE.
We observed since then, that he could be using his Sympatico account, and have received no reply.
Somehow he thinks we are a business, collecting a comission somewhere? smile

So, just in case someone thinks, that we aren't doing all we can to protect you from crooks, rest assured, a lot of it happens behind the scenes. tu

No one should worry about him surviving though, because after all, he makes more in 15 minutes, than we do in a day.
But only because he saves money, by using a Hotmail account... wink

And, he wanted us to make sure everyone knew about this situation, so consider yourself "told". wink

I think the key word in his last post, was "steal". (even if he spelled it 'steel')

And it gets better -- finally a reply that makes some sense!

He has an old account he says (somehow we missed this), and it just doesn't work on his computer.

So, we've purged that, and encouraged him to re-apply. smile

SO NOW I HAVE NO WAY ON AT ALL. MY WORK MAIL IS FUCKED AND I DONT KNOW HOW TO LOAD IT IN OUTLOOK. I NEVER MENT THIS TO BE A SPARRING MATCH ITS JUST FRUSTRATING WHEN U CANT GET IN TOUCH WITH THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE WANTED YOUR CAR FOR 3 YRS. I TOLD THEM WHEN I IF I DECIDE TO SELL I WILL B IN TOUCH.
So, if anyone still actually wants this guy's car, email him at: dsm_420@hotmail.com or call him at: 705 733-2374

(I promised him I would tell everyone)

Steve's thoughts...
Quote
The only "loss" I see is a guy who apparently makes TONNES of cash, but can't spell "you" or "steal" , or "see" ,find the caps lock button on his keyboard. (OOpps.. sorry, obviously he DID find it, because it's on.)

A guy who claims that WE are the ones losing out, and yet seems to be very upset that he can't use his hotmail account to sell parts on a classified forum for free.

A guy who CLAIMS he doesn't care, yet keeps telling us how upset he is about it. (Perhaps a little unstable are we?)

As far as I can tell, the members of the UBB are losing a "seller" who doesn't want to follow the rules we've put in place to stop those members from getting ripped off. I guess the rules are working. Keep up the good work, Andy.

Steve.

The fact that my email inbox gets this sh!t at all is upsetting, nevermind the way he replies. People like this DEMAND things of us, insist they have a RIGHT to access this board.

frack YOU. (or wait...frack U) smile

I'm tired of these guys bitching.

Well, he's found his caps lock key again, but nothing even bearing anything close to maturity.

Quote
So funny. Glad to see you guys are mature. Whatever its all good. I didnt
know I could call her and get 1 so I guess that makes me not mature. I
didnt want to post to make money as I said in our frs incounter. I new
there were people on the site that wanted parts from MY car. Its had over
50 g put into it. Rebuilt from top 2 bottom. But its not a prob to not
sell it on your site. But I do think that I am going to send a post out to
let people know about your site, and the people runing it. That last
message was just plainly rude.


PS ENJOY the treat I sent you.

This is why people do dumb sh!t on sites because of admins like you.
Does anyone know this clown?
Now he's up to veiled threats by email.
Lovely.
