Some people just too eager to earn money

    I've been hanging around the BST forum for around 2 months, and I have a thought in mind - is it super duper hyper ultra hard to earn money?

    For instance the clone script(the 14 clones one), I know that people got it free(even I had it for free from the internet), and yet they are selling over and over again by countless members. I have no rights to interfere with your business but since you got it free and you don't even know if you have rights to resell it or not, I advice you not to do it anymore. Furthermore, some of the script are not working(which none mentioned), I personally tried it.

    And people used to add every DP members into their IM just to advertise their products. Same as above, I have no rights to stop you from doing that reckless work, but please be considerate, you dont want few people to add you every day and buzzing you to promote their services.

    Also, why people just cant read? When buyers state their desire and requirements, they mean it. For example what's the point of selling $500+ sites as they buyer only seeking for $50+ sites? And I know that many tells their friend or some DP members to bump threads(I was once being asked to do so) by posting some nonsense, at least it wont be counted as spamming or bumping.


    A forum cant be organized even though how many millions the owner willing to spend without the "common sense" and the "willingness" of the members.

    So if you're not prepared to do some work(e.g. advertise by proper method, SEO), dont do it.

    I've been in this game 10 years, and do it full time. I agree with you wholeheartedly. Some people I come across are just lazy. Some are willing to openly admit things are too much work.

    They see I have 1:6 conversions over 6 membership pay sites, and ask me how I do it. I explain to some degree how I do it, and their response is, "that is too much work. Can't I just buy.... ".

    Keep in mind these are the same people who low ball everyone's sites, or do not want to pay for anything, and want free, or review copies. Now all of a sudden they want to, and have money to pay others to do the work?

    Pleeeeease.

    But enough of that. The next problem I see is everyone cloning these junk sites and selling them off to noobs who fall for all this "potential" talk. It's amazing people will spend $50 a pop over hundreds of sites that do not make them more than $2 adsense, but will not drop $1000-5000+ on a good site with proven track record and recurring sales.

    Simply amazing.

    Then you have many who do not listen to advice, will post later after spending $100's or $1000 buying traffic and not getting a single conversion acting like they are mystified even though they were told that traffic was a waste of time and money.

    I find all this simply amazing.

    1. Lazy people who think that others are going to give them a 'short cut' (and for free) when we had to learn the hard way over years and years of trial and error, success and failure.

    2. Many who, even when they GET good advice, still do not listen and go wasting and insane amount of time and money chasing fool's errands. When, if they would have done, or listened in the first place. Might be making some real money.

    3. All these a@@hats who somehow manage to just clone site after site and sell them to noobs for $15-50 a 1000 times over, and yet no one seems to catch the drift.

    4. People who just can't think outside the box. How many times to you have to tell people that NO market is saturated. You just have to retool to niche markets.

    Is it that hard to think outside the box.

    :rolleyes:

    /end rant.

    I agree. I think there should be a rule on selling... you better have the license and prove you have it before you can sell...

    When you see someone selling warez, send in a bad post report with your proof.
