Another Exchange Board rant
I really don't know what's happened to common courtesy these days. Lately I've had issues with the Exchange Board. A couple weeks ago I PMd someone about a trade and no answer.The latest one was last week. I was going through some old threads about a particular Beachbody kit and so I PMd someone asking if they still had a DVD available that they had mentioned maybe putting on the YaYa board. No answer. Again I sent a gentle PM asking again. No answer. Please....a simple answer back would be appreciated letting me know it was sold/swapped. Or you decided to keep it. Or whatever.
I answer ALL PMs. One way are the other the person gets an answer. Just common courtesy. |
I've noticed this too. I've pm'd and emailed and received no response. I usually wait 48 hours and add them to my ignore list.

I'm sorry that you've had some negative experiences with the Exchange board.
On a personal note I'm uncomfortable with the recent trend to air grievances about Share the Wealth or trades/exchanges in the General Discussion forum. Even when names aren't mentioned it makes me think that the person posting is wanting to publicly shame another member. I find that unwarranted. I think emailing the moderators would be a better idea. Or privately request that Wendy or another moderator make an announcement about answering PMs in a timely manner or whatever the issue is. Maybe the moderators should also consider updating the rules of the Exchange forum. I would just request that this happens behind the scenes. |

As someone who rarely checks into VF lately, it's possible...possible...they don't come on here often. It's also possible an email was changed. Maybe they were new and don't have a sense of the general protocol?
In all my years here, I've never had a problem with a trade itself and I don't believe I've never heard back from someone when making a request. Even if it did/does happen, the positive experiences have far outweighed any negatives. Just my 2 cents of course. |

I'm eating lunch at my desk, checking the forum and saw your thread, which really irritated me. Your first email was sent on Friday, the second yesterday. I had planned on responding tonight after work. No, the 21 day Barre Fix is not available. |

Just my opinion on this matter! I do understand the frustration and the need to rant, but ultimately, sometimes an exercise dvd is not as important a priority to someone else as it is to us (or vice versa.) |
