Apparently because I want to barter my sig for a product it means I can't afford it..
 

why is it when I want to barter my sig space for a product I get people trying to insult me by implying that I am broke and can't afford various shit?

i don't get it

sure, I can afford some of the shit I barter for my sig, but sometimes it isn't stuff that I would buy on my own, but if it was in trade or sent to me as a gift I would feel more comfortable about it...I know, it is weird, but I never said I wasn't

fuck those people man!!! whore it

that is what I say, I don't need the money for the sig, and it is something I wouldn't normally buy anyway, so why not barter! haha

Bartering rocks, but I'd only do it with goods that I could procure at a cost of less than the public offering price.... and I imagine that applies to most people.

Otherwise, it doesn't make much sense, imho.... I'd much rather just pay the amount in cash, and leave the hassle to procuring whatever item to the other party.

nothing wrong with getting shit for posting...if you are gonna do it for free anyways, might as well see if you can get something outta it...:2 cents:

i know what you mean, I havent gotten anything for my sig for months... I try and sell it of for some extra booze money and what not in PHX fpr the forum. I caught more shit for posting it...

Mind you it never sold and I STILL MADE it there... so to all the shit... Fuck you.. Jace if you havent made any money from what you do you wouldnt be here... same as me... Maybe we need to hold an auction for charity...Oh... wait... Boyalley catches shit for that too....

Fuck all of the haters...

People who tell you that your broke and dont earn shit, are either a. poor so they need to offload their frustration about being poor onto someone, or b. have a tiny dick, and are trying to show that they have a bigger dick than you.

A multi millionaire with a massive cock (or one thats tiny but he is happy with) will not boast in this way.

IMO of course - but seriously, size-of-dick psychology is the next big science. Students will learn this stuff at college in years to come!

Why pay for it out of your pocket if you can get someone to buy it for you?

I can afford to buy my own plasma tv or iPhone, but I'm still gonna take the free ones from naughty america because of their promo this month.

You're smart Jace. I totally agree with your reasoning about the trade.

Fuck the haters.

we are considering buying you that crazy coat.

I liked that idea...but hell I just want to see you in that coat

Because people with money don't want more money. No one ever gets rich because we live in a Utopian society where people make a living and are happy with it and would never seek additional income from other sources unless they were absolutely destitute.

haha, that would be fun

I did that for fun really to see if anyone would do it, got like 10 bites actually

really not a bad deal if someone was seriously going to do it, and that isn't something I would buy anyway, but if someone was to send it to me for some ad space, hell yeah! haha

Who cares man, you have to take GFY like it's a grain of salt...which it pretty much is

sig buyer: how much do you want for your sig?
Jace: i don't know. 500.00.
sig buyer: cool. sold.
Jace: how much is your gooogly googlo software?
sig buyer: 500.00.
Jace: awesome. i've always wanted that.
sig buyer: whats your epass, i wanna pay you for the sig.
Jace: well, if i can get a copy of the software we can call it even.
sig buyer: wtf? are you a broke fucker or something?
Jace: huh?

:1orglaugh

haha, true dat

i mean, I love money to death, but I consider my sig space selling on gfy beer money anyway...so, why not have people buy me crazy shit instead of cash?

hahahahahahaha

actually this is the EXACT icq log

(8/10/2007 5:57:00 AM) XXXXXXXX: hey pacey, INSERTCOMPANYNAMEHERE would like to buy your sig for three months, where shall we ship the furry jacket you cant afford?

not excactly sure what the "pacey" thing was, that doesn't even really make sense as a bad insult

Who said that? I like the coat, it reminds me of Hal:thumbsup

isnt it the truth... its there anyway, if someone throws "EXTRA" { keep in mind people, it IS extra) money at you.... who wouldnt take it, and your asking for a trade, not money... weird man.... if thats a real transcript I wouldnt continue with that doofus....

making deals at 557am may be a good place to start the investigation.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Who gives a fuck Jace, do whatever the hell you wanna do.

i told him to remove me from his icq list and I blocked him

he was obviously just trying to be a hater, still confused me though, of all the things I give people to hate me for, he picks that?

oh, i don't care, I just found it kind of weird and funny enough to start a thread here about, haha

haha, didn't even notice the timestamp, I just logged into icq and it popped up....fun shit, haha

Anyone who can actually negotiate a deal where they make money from their signature or barter something for it should be honored. I look on it as an honor that someone values my name and reputation enough that they would want to put their company in my sig, and I make a very nice chunk of side money from it. Very nice.

I have no compunction whatsoever about it. Even if you can eak out a measly 3 or 4 hundred bucks a month from it you're ahead of anything you'd get on any other type of boards out there.

Are there any non adult-webmaster boards out there in mainstream where people can sell their sigs? I have yet to see any. This is it folks, those who can work a deal to earn income from their sigs do. Those who can't... call those who can "sigwhores".

And the world continues to turn. :D

My sig is worth mad bling yo.

I run a mainstream forum that I sell ad space on for local business. Whenever I have work done on my house or anything I ALWAYS offer an ad deal to the company in exchange for a discount. Not because I'm cheap or broke, but because it's good business practice. If they like what they get for their discount they might later decide to continue purchasing ad space, or some who have no website for their business might decide to hire my company for that, etc etc.

Bartering for ad space goes on all the time. You were just unlucky Jace. Unlucky enough to be talking to a short-sighted person with a piss-poor attitude and no head for business.

Move on and keep doing what you're doing. You know you'll eventually find someone who doesn't have their head up their ass.

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

I feel the same way but without the post count you have.

I want a cute new lens that I don't need but I want and thought of putting my sig up for sale. But, everyone would call me names so I don't.

Who knows :upsidedow

You fucking broke whore.













j/k of course, Bartering has been working for thousands of years and there is nothing wrong with it. People are just stuck up and full of themselves. Heck even if you were a sig whore. Unlike %99 of them you actually are in this business. How many of those fuckers know shit about feeds or even html for that matter.

you work in business where if you make anything less than a half million a year...you're a chump

so relatively to most civilians...we're all pretty rich

I would only make a trade if I could get a product or service worth more than my end would generate cash, otherwise I would rather take cash. But I can't fault you for trying to get something out of a space that's really doing nothing. All of us should be trying to make a few extra dollars wherever possible. That's doing business.

Jace, all I know is how good you would have looked in that at some of those private parties you used to DJ! That would have been almost surreal! I am actually about ready some of those for some future parties...:-)

Has your cell changed in the last 6 months or so, love to touch base as we have been MIA, but need to get back in touch, as it is about time.

Scott

Wait? I can get stuff for my sig?

i dont see anything wrong w / bartering your sig for an item
hell id give my sig up for a new 3chip hd cam even tho i could go out and buy it my self right now if i wanted

The people will assume - fuck 'em man.

Keep posting! :thumbsup

Chris you fucking whore.

Get in touch with Head Boy please. One of your domains have expired. :)

$500 for gooogly googlo software?It must new the web 2.0 version. lol

Ok, I will give my opinion on it.

On the one hand from the logical point of view Jace doesn't make sense, because he can just sell the sig for whatever amount and then pay for the things he wants.. or just keep the money.

But on the other hand, hm... I can understand him as well... personally I am hate spending money on unneccessay stuff so i wouldn't spend $500 on a something which i don't need at all. But if someone bought me it, it would be cool.

doesnt make much logical sense, its rather an attitude thing, an emotional thing etc
