Resently there has been alot of bitching on the Warrior Forum and I was an active member, until yesterday, I am tired of all the crap going on....ever Warriors are bitching between themselves...the owner doesnt know what to do with the forum and he is asking the Warriors for advice. Give it 2 months and it will be dead....with all the bumping of WSO's - it's just pathetic. Long live DigitalPoint.
Basically...that forum had major potential to become one of the greatest forums online (competing with the likes of digitalpoint) but it acquired a few bad members and let them grow and network meaning the forums are like they are. The only way that forum will still live is if it bans half the members, goes onto vB and acquires/merge with a few other similar type forums.
I used to read Warrior Forum every day. Then I became an active DP user, and it just seemed like a lot of the information was the same on each forum, with DP having more useful info and also more timely thanks to the fact that it has many more active members. Also, it seemed that Warrior Forum members were a little too interested in selling informational products, which is not something I have an interest in. It also made a lot of the posts on Warrior Forum a little too spammy for my taste.
I was going to start posting there but there was little discussion, only sales threads. Some people have been known to make $xxxx in 24 hours from WSOs there. Sounds good, but when I check the WSO forum a lot of them are crappy ebook sales.
I still find the Warrior forum really useful. I couldn't care less about WSO bumps - it doesn't really effect how I digest good info on the site and there's a high percentage of members in there that give good advice.
Jason, I agree with you. Because of that forum, I gained so much knowledge in IM. As long as it's open, I'll still be active there.
Heres my take. The Warrior forum feels like a bit of a love in between the members and i feel like an outsider. I posted 2 threads and got zero answers which is ok. Maybe noone was interested but it wouldnt have happened here. Then you get a member saying something obvious like ' use social bookmarking sites' and everyone is saying ' owh wow thats amazing advice you should sell it' or ' are you coming to the next lunch or are you too busy making money' etc. Also the WSO's are bumped by members to get more sales and i think they are having a superiority complex thing going on. I use DP every day. Warrior maybe once a week
There will be good and bad warriors. But in the end Good will always win. I hope so with warrior forums also. Hope it will revive soon...
The warrior forum is still one of the best forums around, there is a tonne of information on their and they do have some really useful WSO from time to time. The warrior forum will never close, there are far too many good marketers on there to let it.
I'd say the warrior forum is full of those WSO's and other offers, but that makes a lot of spam too. Just IMHO...
I just checked the WSO section and it is full of make $$$$ in X days threads,just like we have in our BST section,but atleast members can post it for free here.The good thing about those WSO is you cant bump your thread,u need to pay $20 to bump your thread lol.
