Posts getting deleted. Threads being closed for no apparent reason.

If someone is ripping someone off, we all should know about it. It should be allowed to be discussed.

It seems like they have no problem taking advertising money from people, but as soon as something goes wrong everything is on lockdown and nobodys allowed to discuss it.

Perhaps they are stopping people discussing it because they want it to look like nobody gets ripped off on TWF and everything is rosy in the garden.

For example today, the Gold Civanti thread in the supplier section, not saying they have ripped anybody off, but why is that suddenly on lockdown? What has happened there thats so bad?

Earlier in the week we were discussing whats happened with King-Tees and the alleged stealing of templates, all of a sudden thats on lockdown.

I can understanding the management of the forum deleting posts to do with illegal activities such as the selling of fake goods etc. But please let people discuss the service they have received from an advertiser etc. otherwise buying anything from any advertiser on here becomes pointless.

I say to the management of this forum that were living in a free society and what ever happens please give people there basic right to freedom of speech, otherwise it stops being a community and becomes a dictatorship.

turned out i had pulled a very tiny brass contact out of the ink cradle by accident when removing the faulty ink cartridge. as i had orders to do and paper work to print i decided not to let the printer beat me as it was only 3 week old. so i fiddled with it and about 2 hours later i had managed to put the contact back in and had installed a cartridge:niceone:

Moral of the story.....

And good evening to all ,

Not the usual wholesale post , but am unsure on where to post , ( so move it needed)

I am registered as self employed and earn a little from it , more a way to earn some money and valuable experience as I am only 17. Previous jobs have been covering for friends or on a temporary basis and no CV needed .
However , although I am not applying for a job at the moment , I thought it wise to have one created so I can add to it as I go along

I have read on the internet the basic things that a CV must have, and I believe I have done quite a lot of achievements in my 17 years and have a wide range of skills. (for a 17 year old )


But, what catches your eye? What sort of things should I definitely be putting into my CV, and not putting in?

Any help would be much appreciated

Many thanks

Hi All,

Most people will know about this but i thought I would bring it up again.

Please pass this on especially as Christmas is fast approaching -

it has been confirmed by Royal Mail (our postman indeed) that the Trading Standards Office are making people aware of the following scam:

A card is posted through your door from a company called PDS (Parcel Delivery Service) suggesting that they were unable to deliver a parcel and that you need to contact them on 0906 6611911 (a premium rate number). DO NOT call this number, as this is a mail scam originating from Belize .

If you call the number and you start to hear a recorded message you will already have been billed £15 for the phone call.

Please advise family members/Friends. ]]> Off Topic Chat planner http://www.thewholesaleforums.co.uk/forum/off-topic-chat/72415-latest-postal-scam-aware-premium-rate-phone-number-left-card.html <![CDATA[Guys you wouldn'tt believe where i am at the minute writing this]]> http://www.thewholesaleforums.co.uk/forum/off-topic-chat/72386-guys-you-wouldntt-believe-where-i-am-minute-writing.html Thu, 19 Nov 2009 16:46:45 GMT Yes i decided to take the plunge on medical testing just getting paid well over 1,500 for my time here though a mater of 2 days now and coming back in december for a further 10 not a bad payday hey i am in the facility now where we are being tested got sky tv,xbox 360,ps3,wii,arcade games,pinball...
