Does it make me petty for winning a contest on here befor xmas and being kind of pissed that they "forgot" to ship it for a month, and then when I asked about it they said it would be shipped the next day, and now almost a month later I cant even get ahold of them.

Spill the beans..who was it?

Heh. Free's free.. No need to be in a rush when you win your lotto ticket.

PHPdude · 03-16-2005, 08:04 PM

i think not...

Veterans Day · 03-16-2005, 08:06 PM

Not at all, seeing as they started the contest at GFY's expense in hopes of gaining webmasters or traffic I am assuming, fuck them, were's my shit!!

I mean I'm in no rush, but I have waited and waited, and was even going to put in an oder worth a few grand... but I dont know now if they cant even deliver in an unreasonable amount of time over a small contest, they cant even respond to my contacting them.

pornguy · 03-16-2005, 08:33 PM

Actually no. I think that someone even spoke to lens about the people that offer things, and then dont pay out. Send an e-mail about it to the GFY team, PROVIDING you have TRIED EVERYWAY to CONTACT the company in question.

you have a right to be annoyed with them, poor standards for a company looking for webmasters.

fusionx · 03-16-2005, 09:07 PM

I'm not sure if I'd be pissed off or not, but I know I'd never do biz with that company.. IMHO, if you win a contest, it's the same as having paid cash up front.

I won a contest on here for something.. business networking tips, I think. WebInc was the sponsor.

They busted their collective asses providing me with the prize. Treated me like a VIP customer. Was in contact with the sales person, client services, and the production department (not sure what their departments are called - off the top of my head).

Constant communication, samples of the work in progress, and the option to change anything I wanted after delivery. Didn't change a thing.

The prize was 100 animated banners in various sizes. Worth $699.00 at today's prices.

Check 'em out at http://www.primanudes.com/cms.php?id=10

That's how to run a contest. WebInc ROCKS.

As soon as I need anything they offer, I know where I'll be buying.

MandyBlake · 03-16-2005, 09:10 PM

i don't think its petty at all.

See now thats how it should be

and thanks for making me look at webinc, you sold me on them

I would have been happy with an answer of ANY sort, as it was a contest and didnt cost me anything. But your right, this is BS

Thank you

I wanted to return the favor to WebInc. They truly went above and beyond.

Plus, the banners I've used so far draw good clickage
