This is aimed at helping members using TWF for the very first time.

I have noticed ever since I have joined, new members rush into threads eager to start earning money without keeping certain things in mind. Hopefully this brief guide will prevent many new members leaving prematurely.

1. Before posting your interest in a stock offer in the forum marketplace, check the date on a thread, especially the date the thread was created. We all know how quickly items are sold, so a general rule I tend to follow, if a thread is a month or more old, then that product has a 99.99% chance of being sold out and the seller has forgotten to have the thread closed.

*However in some cases, the seller could be receiving regular batches and would normally say in their threads that they will be getting regular batches in.

2. Please keep in mind that you can only purchase stock/services on the forum from accredited "Community Advertisers". Do not do business with any member of this forum that does not have this accreditation. Check their profile page, it should state that they are “Community Advertisers”. If you are unsure, post a thread asking for help.

3. Do not hi-jack other members threads – it’s a tad rude.

4. Do not post your email address publicly. Use the forums private messaging facility wisely.

5. Keep in mind that it may be a little while before you receive a response to a message you may have sent another member or indeed advertiser. Keep in mind that they could be in a different time zone, busy or otherwise pre-occupied. Unless you have a good reason, avoid posting publicly asking why a particular member has not responded to your message.

6. Please use the search facility before posting a new topic.

7. Keep in mind you cannot purchase branded goods in quantity from China – if you are offered goods such as this from this region, it will be a scam.
