New Emergency Puller For Those who cannot get an Amex

[bcco]

 

 

 

 

 

Criteria:

*More than 500 posts

*We know and trust you

*You can't get an Amex (including AU)

Should have added "...and been on the boards for 7 years." If it's good enough for derogatory info to fall off...

This is a perk for active members that regularly contribute here. It's fine to be a long term lurker, but lurkers are consumers only and not regular contributors.

I don't need a puller, so no interest there. I just laughed at the contributions part. Those who have been here only a couple of years missed out on what truly helpful and friendly contributions actually were like.

People who contribute here regularly are generally very helpful. I just find it odd that so many lurkers feel entitled to everything when they never give anything back. I try myself to be helpful and share what I have learned here. I saw similar threads to this one when I was a newbie and expected nothing.

 

I'm not going to bother acknowledging any more of the "entitled posts."

 

 

Criteria:

*More than 500 posts

*We know and trust you

*You can't get an Amex (including AU)

Def agree there are lots of ppl that come on and want explanations instead of doing research(obviously newer members). I try to chime in when it's helpful, the problem is a lot of times that help is just explaining things I learned and can be learned thru research. So I don't post. I see both points of view and if you got the info then choose whoever u want.

 

 

I'm not bumping anything, but this thread got to me. I try to ignore the spoon-feed-it-to-me-now threads where answers can be found with a little research. I almost always visit the site without logging in, using multiple devices on multiple IPs, so I guess I am one of those moochers.

 

For those that "need" it -- and let's be honest, this category really is for those going for a mortgage and maybe had an emergent credit situation happen in the year prior -- don't those bump influence scroll keepers help them out?

 

It comes across to me as clique-ish and braggadocious to announce that you have something of value (to some) and that you will only share with certain people who post pictures, videos, smiley faces, and +1s. Couldn't one just as easily quietly add another BI and put it on the list?

We're trying to help people that really need it.

 

Most people complaining in this thread don't need it.

 

Your comments about contributors and the content they post is offensive. Maybe some of the lurkers who have taken so much information from CB over the years will finally start giving back.

This is FC XLV,

 

we share the most important FCs,

 

and they die a quick death.

[parisamour]

And just to recap : This is for ONE pull.

 

So chill out .

I don't need an Amex but am now trying to get to the 500 post mark.....

 

... Ah never mind. But the posts here are fun, informative, and entertaining to read. Especially when a very specific topic gets hijacked and turned into some personal flamer feud.

Well this surely got the lurkers to post!

Some of them met more than their yearly quota in this thread!

 

At least they kept the thread bumped.

People get really pissed off when they cant have free information for free.

[BDK]

It's all part of an insidious master plan to dreg them out of Lurkdom. Bwahahaha!

[BobWang]

We kid about it,

 

but we really do get a feel

 

for peoples' personalities

 

through their postings.

I can only imagine what you think about mine.

You'd crash the Site.

If I get any more hate mail, I'm just going to start blocking people.

[tammylj]

Hate mail? Because of one monthly soft pull that counts towards B*? Wow.

[cv91915]

You could always copy it and paste it in this thread. Public shaming is probably in order if people are truly being hateful.

[BobWang]

Fair Warning

 

Lucky is going to forward all negative PMs to me,

 

those names will go on The Scroll's S* List.

 

S* is like C*

 

once you're on it

 

you never get off

Better yet,

 

publicly CC the PM

 

AND they go on the S* List

[mendelssohn]

Oh, so that's what S* is!

[BobWang]

Up till today,

 

only the BISKs

 

knew that it existed.

 

But we're going to nip this in the bud.

[ubercat]

I love a good public shaming.
