Are you Serious?!

Journal Entry: Wed Apr 25, 2012, 1:57 PM


Just tipping you off, this is going to be a mega-rant journal because I'm so pissed right now I can't even.

Okay, so I'm taking a month-long vacation to Seattle to see my boyfriend this coming winter.  Exciting, no?  Except I need to raise enough money to cover any lost wages, to make sure I don't screw myself over.  I've been doing this by selling off my old stuff, and have found it to be a good source of one-time income.

I've made half of what I need so far just by selling things.

I operate on two groups on Facebook, as I'm trying to do it locally and you can reach a lot of people using Facebook.  One group has 500 members, the other is nearing 3k.  You can guess which one I post most of my stuff on.

Only thing is, the person who runs the group with 3k people... well, you'll see.

The rules of the group say to 'post in one of the 12 folders' and lists the folders you can post in.  In the gallery there's more than 12 folders, he just hasn't bothered to take five minutes to change the rules to reflect that.  The rules are also very here and there and don't look professional at all.

His announcements make me cringe.  All caps, minimal punctuation and grammar, wall of text.  I find it hard to warrant anyone the respect they command when they can't even make a semi-professional looking announcement post.  I had to rewrite his latest one just to make the cringing stop, even if I didn't show it to anyone.

He posts in the rules that you can't advertise businesses or houses for rent, and yet it's perfectly okay for him to post those kinds of things because he runs the group.

A friend of mine called him on how he was defying the rules one time, and he's stated it several times elsewhere, but his excuse for being allowed to do that is because it's HIS site.

Hello?  It's your group, not site.  If you have a group on Facebook, while you do run it, technically it's still Facebook's.

So he's put himself in an entirely different ruleset because he runs the group, which is totally a dick move and not professional at all.

Anyway, I'll get to the point now.  I posted my old RAM on the site since I upgraded, and he said he wanted it.  We agreed on a pickup time and he said he would be there unless he got called away, either way he'd let me know.  He didn't let me know and didn't show, so I posted on the RAM saying that since it was a no-show it was available again.

He posted saying he PM'd me, so I quoted my most recent PM from him in the comments to show that, no, he didn't hold up to his end of the deal.

I woke up today to find that I'd been banned from the group.  That means I can no longer update the things I had on there, receive notifications when people post on my stuff in there, or generally do anything that'll allow me to sell my stuff there.

It sucks, because that group has the widest reach and is by far the most active.  And I got banned because he's too much of a whining idiot to accept that he didn't make pickup so I'm okay with selling to someone else.  Not only that, he didn't delete my pictures (I tested the notification thing using my mom's account) and didn't give me any explanation why I no longer have access to the group, nor has he replied when I inquired as to why he did what he did.

Wut.

Inuyasha, I'd like to pitch an idea to you. We all know BOA ended because of a lack of publicity...

Well I was wondering if you might allow me to try something that might get it more attention. Maybe it would even allow fo a second season to be made. I'd like to make a story version of the BOA tournament on Fanfiction.net-after getting permission from all owners of characters in it...

I mostly just need something to make to kill time, and I remembered how ngrey made that BS based story Inferno, Purgatorio, Paradiso. I was thinking of a similar concept except it would just go deeper into the BOA plotline you had going.

People like my IZ stories over on FF.net, they might take a liking to BOA enough to get a second season if you ever get the inclination to continue it. I also mostly decided I wanted to try this because of how fun it sounded in my head. ^_^

I will rain down hell on this person.
